[]
Indybay features
On January 13, demonstrators rallied outside the Westin St. Francis in San Francisco to protest the J.P. Morgan Healthcare Investors Conference which brought together capitalists from around the world who profit from denying health care.
They delivered the message that "health care is for people, not for profit" and also connected the genocide of Palestinians to the healthcare system.
Meanwhile, it is estimated that a single-payer healthcare system to care for every one in the country would cost approximately $20 billion per year.
The overall message of the action was that health care can only be provided to the whole society as a single payer system, and equally to all its members.
