Margret Flowers: While many in Congress, the press and the public have given up on the idea of even a limited public option in health care reform, Flowers and her group, Physicians ...for a National Health Program, are standing firm for a single-payer plan. Specifically, they want to extend the Medicare program, which they see as a functioning single-player plan, to the nation as a whole. Flowers has testified before Congress and penned Op-Eds and she has been arrested three times in her attempts to get Congress and the White House to pay attention to single-payer.

"The phrase that continuously runs through my mind is 'To be silent is to be complicit.' I cannot be complicit in the face of a healthcare industry that profits at the cost of human lives and in the face of an administration and a Congress that are too dysfunctional to stop this practice."
