Oh yeah, health care reform. The main platform of the Clinton administration. Right.
Well, I don't have any health insurance harpgirl, so you are still doing a damn sight better than some of us. Health care reform is only meaningful to people who have it, and don't like the fact that it costs them more every year.
The number of uninsured Americans, which had fallen in 1999 and 2000, rose by about 1.4 million in 2001. New data and studies indicate the increase was due in large measure to the faltering economy, mounting health care costs, and the erosion of private health insurance coverage. The total number of uninsured Americans rose from 39.8 million in 2000 to 41.2 million in 2001, according to new findings from the Census Bureau.
I'll kiss DougR's Republican ass and Claymore's extremist right win ass just as soon as their leaders get insurance for us 41.2 million Americans with no insurance whatsoever.
I have a feeling you'll be kissing ass long before me.
