save the public option
September 09, 2009
Write letters. Email the President. Spread this video around. The insurance companies will never offer you affordable insurance. If you're one of the lucky people who have employer-financed insurance and don't know how much private, self-purchased insurance costs these days, it's running between $400 and $600 a month for one person, like me. It's why I don't have any. If you have a family, it can run more than a thousand dollars a month with big deductibles. You think the insurance companies are going to pass up the chance to make that kind of money? No wonder they don't want competition from the federal government. Save the public option. Anything else is vastly inferior and will still leave millions uninsured and unable to afford either insurance or healthcare. Anything else is not a solution.
