Thank you for this post. I'm a chronic condition patient who can tell you that it's handled differently in the various States. In Florida I paid over $200 a month for one med alone. In New Mexico it costs me $3. That is a huge difference. Yes, I agree we need to unite on this issue. I would have died if I stayed in Florida due to lack of healthcare. It is abundant in New Mexico though. A wealthy state like Florida versus the 47th poorest state of the Union and guess which one has health care for the indigent?! New Mexico! We need to get a grip and make this kind of coverage available to those who cannot afford private practice or for profit medicine anymore.

By the way, Aetna will spend big bucks on legal fees to fight worker comp claims and deny injuries and illness rather than pay out. So, the million dollar question is what happens to on job injuries with either system. I had insurance. It did not pay for work related injury. Comp wouldn't either. So I just got lost until my bank account went empty.

I wish all you better karma.

"Everything's fine," McCain told reporters during a news conference. "Like most Americans, I go see my doctor fairly frequently."

It's official. Americans are giving up health insurance in record numbers. The insurance industry has priced itself and its worthless product beyond the reach of all but the most affluent among us.

It's official. Healthcare in the United States of America, is a privilege not a basic human right.
