National insurance plan needed | LETTER TO THE EDITOR


February 24, 2012 · 7:49 AM

To the editor:

Are your grown children without health insurance?

Or, are they paying a large portion of their salary for a health plan that only benefits them if they are fighting a major illness (and, then doesn’t pay it all)?

Do you have friends who are going without health insurance because they can’t afford it?

Are you priced out of the health insurance market?

If you answered yes to any of these questions, do us a favor. Consider supporting a national health insurance plan that benefits all Americans. Please, leave politics aside, just consider it.
