Quote:What It’s Like Living Without Health Insurance in America

Forced to choose between paying bills and having health coverage, many Americans are risking it and going without.

Sobering.

I'd be very curious to know how the people they profiled actually vote in state and federal elections. As a Canadian, it utterly boggles my mind that so many Americans are passionately and adamantly opposed to universal healthcare.

They profiled one person who's making $117,000 in after tax (US!) dollars, but still finds health insurance to be beyond his financial reach. WTF?

If health care is a priority, then you need to vote for candidates who believe in universal health care. If any of these people voted Republican... well, I just don't know what to say.
