Many feel that they don’t want more government involvement in health care, and that less regulation will lead to more private competition and lower premium costs. That won’t happen as long as private insurance is profit driven. We need to advocate for ourselves by electing legislators who truly care about creating a workable health care solution that doesn’t cause medically-induced bankruptcies. We need to work together and be a force that decides who we elect this November. And we need to keep working until we have people in Denver and D.C. who will help us out of our current unsustainable health care fiasco. There are options that are already being successfully used in the U.S. (Medicare) and many other countries around the world.
