EDITOR (CORPORATE CRIME REPORTER)
Ask your liberal friends about Danny Glover.
They will say – superstar actor featured in the Lethal Weapon film series.
Civil rights activist.
But ask older Americans who watch a lot of cable television about Danny Glover, and they will tell you about Danny Glover – paid actor for big pharma and the insurance industry.
As it turns out, Glover is the civil rights face of corporate liberalism.
I didn’t believe it when I first heard about it this week.
But then, reality was just a few Google clicks away.
Issue one: single payer national health insurance.
Danny Glover supports single payer. He was a major supporter of Bernie Sanders for President. Single payer would effectively eliminate the insurance industry.
Throughout his career, Glover has been a strong supporter of traditional Medicare and single payer national health insurance.
Last year, Glover narrated an hour-long PBS documentary – Power To Heal: Medicare And The Civil Rights Revolution – chronicling the historic struggle to secure equal and adequate access to healthcare for all Americans.
Central to the story is the tale of how a new national program, Medicare, was used to mount a dramatic, coordinated effort that racially desegregated thousands of hospitals across the country, all in a matter of months in 1966.
That Danny Glover would never betray the single payer movement by working for a Medicare Advantage insurance corporation to undermine traditional Medicare, right?
Wrong.
“Hi I’m Danny Glover with an important message for anyone on Medicare,” Glover says in one such ad. “I’ve done a lot of action movies over the years and I know you are never too old for good health care. Many of you may qualify to save money or receive additional Medicare approved benefits at no additional costs. But listen. You don’t get these savings or additional benefits automatically. That’s why I recommend getting a free, no obligation Medicare benefits review from Assurance. They can see whether you are eligible for new benefits like free eyeglasses, prescription drugs, at home tele-health visits and over the counter allowances.”
“You may be eligible for zero dollar monthly premiums, zero dollar deductibles, or no co-pays.”
“I’ve gotten banged up enough to know that health care benefits are important for everyone. And that’s why I trust a licensed Medicare agent at Assurance. They will look up what plan you are on and provide a free, no obligation Medicare plan review and answer any questions you have. Call now and make sure you are getting all of the Medicare benefits you deserve.”
Glover should know that Medicare Advantage undermines traditional Medicare and rips off seniors.
