Follow the Money

Working for the New York City public school system has taught me at least one universal truism. That is, if you want to find the root of any social problem, follow the money. Once you realize who is profiting from the failure of education, or health care, or international relations... then you know who is really invested in obstructing any sort of solution.

Bill Maher seems to have figured this out. Check out his rant about health care -- it starts around 2:00. (The whole clip is funny if you want to watch from the beginning, but the relevant part is two minutes in). Enjoy.
