Statement by CNA/NNOC Executive Director Rose Ann DeMoro on the House bill on healthcare

Of all the torrent of words that followed House passage of its
version of healthcare reform legislation in early November, perhaps the
most misleading were those comparing it to enactment of Social Security
and Medicare.

Sadly no. Social Security and Medicare were both federal programs
guaranteeing respectively pensions and health care for our nation's
seniors, paid for and administered by the federal government with

important reform components, along with many weaknesses, neither one
comes close to the guarantees and the expansion of health and income
security provided by Social Security or Medicare.  read more »

Q. A. With Citizen Activist Barry Kissin
WRITTEN BY SHERWOOD ROSS          
One legacy of the Bush-Cheney administration is the grandiose expansion of our germ
warfare research program. This was declared to be necessary because of the
September-October 2001 anthrax letters' attacks on Congress and the media---attacks
the public is now being told came not from the Middle East but from within our own
government's facilities. As a result, developmental work is going forward with
deadly and loathsome pathogens capable of triggering plagues and epidemics.  read more »
