Unlimited profit and healthcare for all will never work together.
Healthcare for the People

Healthcare for the people
Is what we need to see
Not corporately aligning
Just taking care of you and me
Not bowing to insurance
While enriching CEO's
We're dying without healthcare
As their selfish money grows
Capitalism is important
It is much of who we are
Healthcare premiums too expensive
For bigger homes and yachts and cars
For the health insurance moguls
Who love dollars more than you
They must make a lot of profit
In everything they do
Every group priced separately
Even down to one or two
If illness or disease strikes out
It's you who pays for you
The cost of health insurance
Could be diminished quite a lot
If the insured put in larger groups
To mix the healthy and the not
Then limit percent of profit
For all the health insurance need
Base the premiums on the newer mix
Healthcare for all and not for greed
If the moguls do not like it
And think the profit's not enough
Cover all who want by medicare
Let the greedy see it's tough
Let them raise the premiums
On the richest that are left
The ones who can afford it
Not the ones who think it's theft.
