I just do not understand why people aren't rallying with the President to reform this broken system. I have health insurance, but it is basically useless! It is what is known as "catastophic" coverage - I have a sky high deductible, no prescription benefits, and I feel like a complete fool every month for paying for it!! Oh, and the rates go up ALL THE TIME!! If anybody opposes heath care reform, you know they are in the pocket of lobbyists and the insurance vultures!!

that there is nothing better we could do FOR BUSINESS than adopt single-payer national health care financed by taxes and premiums charged to individuals.

This study seems to support that notion and frankly, it's hard to understand why this is not ridiculously obvious to everyone.
