Idea for Health Reform Video Challenge
If I had a video production studio, here's what I'd submit to the Health Reform Video Challenge:
* Begins with 2-3 flash-frame stories of a family with a nice house, job, car, 2.5 kids+dog -- parent gets sick, loses job, insurance dropped, dies; another with medical bankruptcy; message: this is you today, because of the system, this could be you tomorrow. (10 seconds)
* Clip of a Republican senator saying the English and Canadian health care systems are awful and we don't want government involved in ours. Then flash to poll stats showing higher health care satisfaction in those countries and better outcomes. Show a clean-looking Brit saying he likes their system. (10 seconds)
* Flash to economist quoting the amount of money spent annually in the US on health care divided by the population. Quote: this is the health care tax we're paying now, [some absurdly enormous number]. (10 seconds)
* Flash bullet points: Valuing human life. Lower overall costs. Everyone deserves health care.
Ok so that's probably more than 30 seconds. I'm looking forward to seeing the winner!
