    End Health Greed As We Know It, Not Medicare
    Medicare does not need to be cut, much less ended.  Eradication of fraud, waste, abuse, and mismanagement by politicians, health plans, medical groups, and special interests would fund medically necessary health care for all Americans.
    POLITICIANS, BUREAUCRATS, AND DR. STRANGELOVE PHYSICIANS ARE “BENDING THE COST CURVE,” BUT BREAKING THE PATIENTS AND DESTROYING THE DOCTOR- PATIENT RELATIONSHIP.  Special interests have hijacked Medicare by rationing healthcare of the taxpayers who fund it.
    Kaiser Permanente’s Managing Director of Investments supervises the HMO’s $40 billion non-profit slush fund, all income from which is non-taxable. CEO George Halvorson’s annual compensation is $6.7 million. All Permanente Medical Groups are for-profit.
    Kaiser Permanente rents its patients to researchers to secretly test drugs and medical devices, in which for-profit, Kaiser Ventures, invests.
