The Republicans have been trying to shape the healthcare debate by claiming that any attempt at providing government-funded healthcare would make America a socialist nation. But the real truth is that they don't want the insurance industry to suffer any financial losses, which would prevent them from funding their campaigns. This is the tragedy of our current, money-drive system, that cares more about profits than about patient care. Air America's Sam Seder talks about this with Maggie Mahar, author of the book "Money-Driven Medicine: The Real Reason Health Care Costs So Much."
