Resposible for State Deaths due to lack of Health Care Insurance

This is a representation of about half of the deaths caused by governmental negligence to issues urgent to the populous of the USA.

There is a huge disproportionate amount of deaths noted in Texas. It is even disproportionate considering it is the largest state in the lower 48 states of the USA.

The people that have been suffering through this health care crisis for the past two decades, since our current Secretary of State, Hillary Rodham Clinton, tried to correct the nation's path, knows that the problem in all this lies with the draconian methodologies practiced, NOT IN GOOD GOVERNMENT, but in ideologies toxic to our citizens and therefore our USA Constitution.

The obvious mention of Texas' disproportionate deaths among the current listed points to the epicenter of the crisis. Just that simple. One of the most oil wealthiest states in the USA has the worst track record on human rights abuses across the board and now has a Governor advocating secession as a political tool to re-election. It doesn't get more extreme than that. It doesn't get more anti-Constitutionalist than that.

The point is we had eight years of a former Texas Governor in the White House with the very priorities that have killed disproportional amount of people in the very state he was Governor with a track record of the highest 'Death Sentence' rolls in the country. George Walker Bush exhibited disdain to those in the Middle Class and favored the icons of Wall Street. He exemplified the very ideology that is against the dignity of the USA Constitution and its Founders.

The Founders of our Constitution and Bill of Rights left oppression behind to begin again a new nation based in separation of church from state, freedom of thought and pursuit of happiness. They would roll over in their graves to realize their children of the USA were victimized by an ideology and not by law or the facts that support the law. It was ideology they left behind. It is ideology laced with lies and the manipulation that wealth brings to truth we are faced with today. The people below and other I will list in a separate entry are not good Americans. They seek to align themselves with death over life when it comes to the very people already born into their rights in this country.

Our Constitution was to be a work in progress. It was FDR that noted as a man of the 20th Century that life had changed radically from the beginnings of our democracy. He called the change in our industrialized nation a need to reflect on "A Second Bill of Rights" no different than the "Patient Bill of Rights" that Senator Kennedy liked to insure would be a right to all Americans.

The wealth of this country is suppose to serve all of us, not just those that can control Wall Street. The USA Treasury belongs to the people, not the wealth merchants. If the USA can grow its domestic product with the refocusing of our work force, protect the future of their children from the ravages of an abused, neglected and over used planet, then the citizens should have the benefit of the power of their government to insure their wellness and function as a citizen of this country.

The USA is not a 'game piece' in the master board of Wall Street. We are a nation of living, breathing people that exhibit culture. There are certain understandings in our way of life that relate the urgency of the matter in regard to health care and the deaths noted here is a travesty to our people, their understandings of priorities in their lives and our Constitution and Bill of Rights. One cannot vote if one does not live. Death pre-empts understanding a government needs to address the needs of its people.

These people died due to government neglect and everyone knows it. The disproportionate deaths in Texas simply state the obvious to the 'enslavement' to ideology the Right Wing Republicans adhere to in maintaining a constituency. We have to break this cycle of abuse of our people, our laws, our Treasure and our Constitution. There are certain 'truths' that were evident to our Founders and that was the right to pursue a life. If one does not have life, they cannot pursue anything else.

Health care that is affordable and easily available is a RIGHT guaranteed to us under our Constitution as it stands today. It is in the understanding of what living brings to our documents. The ideology of the Right Wing is not even close to a religious dogma and it needs to be overcome by displacing them completely from our political parties and realm of social influence. The 'few' that were 'bailed out' by our Treasury in 2008 have found a 'way in' to our political structure and have dominated our history over the past three decades including the wrongful wars and deaths abroad.

36 Weeks of 40 Weeks in Session the Republican Senators obsturcted legislation.



Senator Deb Stabenow of Michigan pointed out today, out of the 40 weeks the Senate has been in session there have been serious and dangerous delays at least 36 of those weeks.

Progress to a Senate Health Bill is slow.

Today, Hutchinson of Texas bemoaned Christmas stating she is for change in health care. She stated change is needed. She stated we are all for the people that have lost their health care due to pre-existing conditions. She doesn't think that is right. But, she also stated, the way health insurance policies stand today there is little wrong with them. She pointed out they offer high deductibles for people that want that and there are low deductibles for people that want that, but, the low deductibles cost more, that's all.

Ever get the feeling the Republicans, "Don't get it!" Yeah, I think so.

I encourage all to write their Senators and clue them in to the realities of "Health Care American Style" and demand, don't ask, demand change now ! Tell them to vote for the bill!


Thousands of U.S. Deaths Attributed to Lack of Health Insurance (click here)
January 11, 2008

As many as 27,000 Americans may have died in 2006 because they did not have health insurance, a new study estimate.

Written by Sara Lubbes, CQ Staff
The study by the Urban Institute, a nonprofit group that analyzes social and economic problems, puts a new spin on a six-year-old Institute of Medicine (IOM) study that found that 18,000 people died in 2001 because of a lack of insurance.

The Urban Institute study suggests as many as 21,000 people may have died from a lack of insurance in 2001.

Using data from the U.S. Census Bureau, study lead author Stan Dorn, a senior researcher at the Urban Institute, compared the IOM's method for calculating the number of uninsured to an alternative method he believes more accurately reflects the number of Americans who die because they do not have insurance....


Crack pots like Ben Nelson stand in the way of health care reform screaming about the unborn while those already alive die without health care insurance.

There is something "W"rong with this picture !

If they can't do what it right for the living they don't belong in office!

I am calling for the Recall of all those in the Senate that stand in the way of Health Care Insurance Reform. Those up for election in 2010 that oppose the process need to receive vigorous opposition in their states.


If the United States of America demands human rights in their treatment of citizens of other countries, it should be the first to set the example that needs to be followed and upheld. Cherry picking human rights to satisfy political ambitions is not believing in human rights at all!


On December 10, 1948 the General Assembly of the United Nations adopted and proclaimed the Universal Declaration of Human Rights the full text of which appears in the following pages. Following this historic act the Assembly called upon all Member countries to publicize the text of the Declaration and "to cause it to be disseminated, displayed, read and expounded principally in schools and other educational institutions, without distinction based on the political status of countries or territories."

Article 25. (click here)

  • (1) Everyone has the right to a standard of living adequate for the health and well-being of himself and of his family, including food, clothing, housing and medical care and necessary social services, and the right to security in the event of unemployment, sickness, disability, widowhood, old age or other lack of livelihood in circumstances beyond his control.
