Slaves to Health Care

Glenn W. Smith has a good post up at Firedoglake comparing the lack of health care by 50 million Americans to slavery...it sounds like a stretch but he really is not far off the mark.

A startling fact is that it is estimated that 18,000 Americans die each year due to a lack of health care. That's a pretty ugly number. These are people that would be alive today if they had money.
