Hi Mike,
Thanks, seriously, for all your efforts. Don't expect anything to change. Even with 60% in favor of change, hell 80%, don't expect anything to change.
A National healthcare system, for example, was first proposed in 1948. At that time, the U.S. ranked 16th in healthcare in the world. At that time, healthcare costs were 1% of the average income. A national healthcare system been pushed ahead with roughly 60% to 75% approval for 61 years. Today, the U.S. ranks 37th in healthcare and costs 25% of the average income. There are still those who are screaming it's going ahead to quickly.
A quick note on the subject: I taught Algebra at the Antelope Valley Community College in Lancaster. I taught 4 nights a week, 2 hours a night. I was paid $60/hour. After taxes, my take home a month was roughly $1000. In 2004, I got an invite in the college mail to join the College Health Care System. For $980/month, I could get full coverage, hospital stays, low deductible, etc.
I recently tried getting health insurance through AARP. For $300/month I can pay for someone to negotiate with doctors and hospitals.
I have full benefits from the VA.
I don't know how people afford health insurance. If they have any health issues at all, or history thereof, you can kiss the insurance good bye.
OK, I'm getting off my soap box . . . . . . . .
