19 representatives in the House voted to maintain the antitrust law in favor of insurance companies

On February 24th 2010, 19 representative in the House voted to maintain the antitrust law in favor of health insurance companies in the United States. 19 against 406. Here are their names:

Akin
Boehner
Brady (TX)
Broun (GA)
Buyer
Franks (AZ)
Garrett (NJ)
Jenkins
Jordan (OH)
King (IA)
Lamborn
Linder
Moran (KS)
Paul
Price (GA)
Ryan (WI)
Sensenbrenner
Tiahrt
Westmoreland

I have absolutely nothing else to add, this speaks for itself.

Oh one more thing actually: while people die every month because they are denied coverage, the top 5 health insurances companies in the US made a combined profit of over 12 billion dollars in 2009 only.
