The New FLOTUS Bob
Did your health insurance premiums just rise by 39%? Lucky you! Some older folks had their insurance premiums upped by 75%. Many premiums now exceed the monthly mortgage payment. If your mortgage debt exceeds the value of your home, you are under water. If you lose your job, your new address will be the nearest Wal*Mart parking lot.
You could have avoided all this.
Every civilized nation has an insurance program called single payer. The system covers all citizens regardless of age, wealth or physical condition cradle to grave. The cost averages about half of the US burden. Its universality mandates the widest pool of insureds to build the lowest possible risk exposure.
The US present and proposed health plans leave too many citizens without coverage at prohibitive costs doomed to fail.
