See me, Feel me, Touch me, Heal me

Forty years ago in 1969 The Who released an album called Tommy about a deaf, dumb, and blind kid, who is abused as a child and becomes a pinball wizard.

See me, feel me, touch me, heal me.

My sincere hope is that congress does not believe the path to enlightenment is to continue to abuse its constituents until we are all deaf, dumb, and blind, and forced to do nothing but play pinball.

See me, feel me, touch me, heal me.

Please do not be deaf to our requests for health care. The military continues to rake in a trillion dollars a year off of the American tax payers while 47 million Americans have no health insurance at all.

See me, feel me, touch me, heal me.

Please do not be dumb. Speak up for the American people you represent and pass a single payer health care system that has no preexisting conditions clause and make it available to all Americans.

See me, feel me, touch me, heal me.

We are not blind to the fact that the wealthy continue to become wealthier from banking ponzi scams and the military industrial complex.

See me, feel me, touch me, heal me.

Right behind us there are millions who can either become healthy productive members of society or become slum dogs.

Health care is a human right and it is what we all need.

Please pass a single payer health care system with no preexisting conditions for all Americans. If there are enough tax dollars to pay for torture and wars and weapons we don’t need, then there should be plenty of tax money for health care. Or please just cancel the torture and the wars and weapons effective immediately and fund health care instead.
