[SDCPJ] Sun, Jan. 17th, 4:30 - 7 pm >> Socialist Salon - Reframing the Fight for, Universal Health Care: Corporate or Public?

You are invited to join the discussion...

The Fight for
Universal Health Care
Isn’t Over
How do we re-frame the battle in class terms?
Fundamentally this is a struggle between supporters of
For-Profit, Corporate Health Care and
Socially-Supported Public Health Care;
if corporations win, working people lose.

San Diego Socialist Unity Network is holding a series of forums to encourage deeper political discussions, which look strategically at our movement, the path to social transformation & a new social order. We use this opportunity to tackle many major issues of our times from a non-sectarian, left perspective in a challenging yet relaxed setting.

 READING TO MAKE THE DISCUSSION MORE FRUITFUL:  

• DSA has a good flyer on the current national situation: http://www.dsausa.org/pdf/HealthCare_Final_Weeks_flyer.pdf
• California single payer: Health Care for All http://www.healthcareforall.org/
• The American Medical Student Association. This is a very good organization. They have a page on Universal Health Care with links to several good documents: http://www.amsa.org/AMSA/Homepage/About/Mission/Priorities/HCFA/HealthCareReform.aspx Check out http://www.amsa.org/AMSA/Homepage/About/Mission/Priorities/HCFA.aspxand http://www.amsa.org/AMSA/Libraries/Committee_Docs/SinglePayer101.sflb.ashx . They also have very good power point presentations, in particular, the ones on Single Payer and on International Health Care Systems. http://www.amsa.org/AMSA/Homepage/About/Mission/Priorities/HCFA/PowerpointPresentations.aspx
• Physicians for a National Health Program (PNHP): http://www.pnhp.org/facts/single_payer_resources.php and many links from this site. There is an embarrassment of riches here, especially the FAQ site: http://www.pnhp.org/facts/singlepayer_faq.php
• California Nurses Association. This material is more activist oriented, but it provides a good feel for the current struggle between single payer advocates and lesser alternatives. http://www.calnurses.org/
