The American capitalist class and their political stooges kill as many Americans every month as were killed in the terrorist attacks on 9 /11. These deaths are caused, that they are the result of calculations aimed at maximizing profit, makes them murder. Victims that are dying every 20 minutes die because some very wealthy people want to become even wealthier. Terrorists that kill through acts of terror are rightly called murderers. Those that kill for investment opportunities are not thought of as murderers but that is what they are - cold, calculating killers.
Families USA released a report (June 2012) entitled 'Dying for Coverage: The Deadly Consequences of Being Uninsured'. The report indicates: Across the nation, 26,100 people between the ages of 25 and 64 died prematurely due to a lack of health coverage in 2010. That works out to:
1. 2,175 people who died prematurely every month;
2. 502 people who died prematurely every week;
3. 72 people who died prematurely every day; or
4. Three every hour.
Between 2005 and 2010, the number of people who died prematurely each year due to a lack of health coverage rose from 20,350 to 26,100. Between 2005 and 2010, the total number of people who died prematurely due to a lack of health coverage was 134,120. Each and every state sees residents die prematurely due to a lack of health insurance. In 2010, the number of premature deaths due to a lack of health coverage ranged from 28 in Vermont to 3,164 in California. The five states with the most premature deaths due to uninsurance in 2010 were California (3,164 deaths), Texas (2,955 deaths), Florida (2,272 deaths), New York (1,247 deaths), and Georgia (1,161 deaths).
Capitalism exposes the absurdity of empty houses, more often than not, foreclosed by the banks while thousands are homeless. According to the Nation Alliance to End Homelessness: There are 643,067 people experiencing homelessness on any given night in the United States. Of that number, 238,110 are people in families, and 404,957 are individuals'
Society must take care of its needs. This includes production, distribution and so on. We need to produce before we can consume and we need to distribute adequately for everybody to consume adequately. Socialists understand the need to build common ownership that satisfies the needs of each and every individual. No human being should die due to his or her lack of access to the world's wealth. The more the employing class get, the less we the workers get. It is time we claimed our inheritance
