' Given the importance of initial legal victories, this would be a devastating turn of events, the consequences of which would most certaintly be the continued and perhaps even intensified suffering and exclusion of America's countless uninsured. As you so eloquently and accurately stated just this past spring, "I believe that a country of our size, the only superpower left in the world -- it's not right that we have 50-60 million people … with no health insurance." (Bolton, p. 1)

I believe the same thing. And I also believe that the primary reason that this unacceptable condition has occurred is because the healthcare industry is so grotesquely driven by the aim to profit, as opposed to the ambition of achieving improved healthcare outcomes for all Americans. Therefore, I believe the best way of gaining greater funding for federal reform efforts is to make steeper or more enforceable penalties against health insurance companies who fail to reduce bureaucratic frustration, exploitive cost itemization, arbitrary claim rejection and denial of coverage.
Health insurance providers posture as agencies designed to support the health interests of the general public. But in reality, their policies have generally been tilted toward profitability and unabashedly at the expense of both the public health and our economic stability.

As Senate Majority leader and as one with whom I have much in common philosophically, I believe it is your responsibility to take a bold and unflinching stance against the exploitive and profit-hungry strategies that have allowed insurance companies, and not American citizens, to become the entities best served by our healthcare system.
