Common Sense

Thomas Paine made a strong case in his pamphlet, Common Sense, for people in the Thirteen Colonies to gain independence from England in 1775-1776. This pamphlet is also based on simple facts, plain arguments, and common sense. Now, 243 years later, the subject is different but parallel to his goal-to have the American people win their freedom from corporate interests in our medical-industrial complex that take exorbitant profits on the backs of sick individuals, their families, and taxpayers.
