My husband made a profound statement at the dinner table tonight. He said that if we both employed with health care that we would not be so concerned with the debate in Congress. I disagree. I have always wanted some kind of national health insurance, but I want it more now that my husband has no insurance. I will not be able to afford my COBRA payments in a few months. I can only afford them now with assistance from ARRA (otherwise known as Stimulus Bill).
I am paying for my Congressional leaders to have health care. Why are they not concerned about helping me pay for mine?
