Sicko Tour Hits Tallahassee
November 28th, 2007 by Mike VasilindaA coalition of groups ranging from the League of Women Voters to the NAACP are behind a national bus tour nick named Sicko..after a movie critical of the heath care system. The groups are pushing a bill in the U-S House of Representatives that would create Universal Heath Care for all Americans. Wilson Barnes of the NAACP says heath care is the next civil rights fight in this country.
“We don’t, today, worry about sitting in the back of the bus, if you happen to be an African American as I am, but there are may of us, poor and minorities that have to worry about health care.”
The legislation would create a publically funded, privately delivered heath care system modeled after the Medicare.
