When CIGNA Representatives refused to speak with protesters at their offices last Wednesday morning, the Billionaires For Wealthcare decided to speak on CIGNA's behalf, and a guerrilla musical entitled "Profits Before People" broke out.

The group conducting the protest was Mobilization for Healthcare for All. They are demanding that...

And the lyrics:

Battle Hymn Of The Insurance Companies
(to the tune of "Battle Hymn Of The Republic")

Rejoice and let us glory in the profits we attain
By rationing the remedies for suffering and pain.
And no one's gonna mess with all our monetary gain.
Let's save the status quo!

Chorus:
If our health care corporation
Never faces regulation,
We'll be brimming with elation!
Let's save the status quo!

We bought a bunch of senators and congresspeople too.
They serve our corporate interests and we tell them what to do.
This gravy train will stop the day a health care bill gets through.
Let's save the status quo!

Chorus: If our health care corporation (etc.)

Our PR team is crackerjack. We're framing the debate!
We're spreading lots of lies and we're unleashing lots of hate.
We'll drive a stake into the bill the day it leaves the gate.
Let's save the status quo!

Chorus: If our health care corporation (etc.)

A decent public option is an option we won't bear.
And Medicare for everyone would kill our market share.
We'll never win the game if all the rules are just and fair.
Let's save the status quo!

Chorus: If our health care corporation (etc.)

In every other wealthy nation health care is a right.
But not here in America, no, not without a fight!
We're fighting for the right to monstrous profits day and night.
Let's save the status quo!

Chorus: If our health care corporation (etc.)

The Billionaires are back, this time as the Billionaires for Wealthcare (http://www.billionairesforwealthcare.com/), representing all the noble Health Insurance Companies who are trying to fight back Obama's jackbooted attempts to regulate us into providing better health care for Americans, and heaven forfend, even cutting us out of as juicy a share...

When we first created this music video it was to sound a note of caution that the fix was in, and Karl Rove would call in his chit for fundraising for Lieberman's last reelection, sending the Senate back into Republican hands for the remainder of George Bush's term, where they...

The Obama campaign has offered progressives a much-needed shot of optimism and joy. And if we should manage to prevail Tuesday, many of us are going to feel like taking a well-deserved break from activism. And we can't afford to do that.

In 1992, so many of us felt...

The Republican victory strategy is an acknowledgment that they can't win the election legitimately, so they've got to conspire, as they've done every four years since 2000, to cheat their way to victory. And they're counting on all the disenfranchisement from hacked voting machines, vote caging, deceptive mailers that offer...

Discussion of the Iraq War seems to have receded as the campaigns near their conclusion, but it's still an issue that will confront our next president. And John McCain still believes in staying in Iraq and possibly expanding the war to other oil-rich nearby countries. And throughout the campaign, he's...

We are the brothers of bullion, the sisters of stock options; the compadres of cash. For the last 8 years, we tuxedo and evening gown-clad denizens of the richest 0.01% of America's economic bell curve have been celebrating the president who has been concentrating more and more money into our...

Sarah Palin embodies the great Republican tradition of pandering to Social Conservatives with wedge issues so they can elect politicians who will pursue a corporatist agenda of Deregulation and Privatization.

Here's our new video of the song from our 2004 album release, "The Billionaires Are In The House."

In 2002, as the midterm election approached, George Bush was beating the drums for war in Iraq. Many Democrats, fearing that they would be labeled "weak on defense," cynically voted for Bush's war and hoped that they could then win the election on domestic issues. We all saw how well...
