PHILADELPHIA - In Pennsylvania and around the nation, recent town hall meetings held by elected officials to discuss health care reform have turned into free-for-alls, with politicians and proponents being shouted down by those who say government has no role in the matter. Why is it happening and who's responsible?
Chuck Pennacchio with Health Care for All Pennsylvania says the town hall gatherings are being crashed by opponents of government-driven health care reform.
"Those are people who desperately want to beat back any kind of reform where the government would play an increased role in either funding or providing health care."
