St Louis Health Care Reform Protesters Arrested at Athem Blue Cross
Protesters read a statement about a woman who's life saving treatment was denied by Anthem Blue Cross. Police arrested them on orders from Anthem Blue Cross who released a statement that insurance rates are high due to medical costs. Meanwhile insurance companies rake in a 30% profit margin on insurance, reaping record profits in the past year despite the downturn in the economy for everyone else, while other countries and other plans like Medicare have overhead rates of 3% to 4%.
