It is incredibly important that Americans understand the need for SERIOUS healthcare reform, the need to raise the age for Social Security benefits and a guarantee allowing access to university educations; which like healthcare should be publicly funded 100%. To regain competitiveness and seize the economic high ground of multiple comparative advantages, Americans will have to be healthy enough to work longer in the work force and smarter.
The philosophical war we have between those who want to keep things the way they are, crushing the aspirations of millions, hating in polite synonyms of their words those who they identify as blacks, Jews, whites, Mexicans, Indians, immigrants, women, teens, septuagenarians, druggies, commies, pinkos, liberals, and gays, against those of us who want and understand America will have to evolve as educated healthy industrious resourceful Americans instead of a bunch of rumour programmed and profiled xenophobic ignorant demographic morons.
Education is liberal because it is liberating. Anyway a link; http://www.pewtrusts.org/uploadedFiles/wwwpewtrustsorg/Reports/

I will let you and your friends with guns (the government) take more of my wages when your “healthcare” is passed. I know it will be passed too. All it takes is a little fear (swine flue) for people to vote out choice.
Here my pipedream healthcare reform: Take government out of healthcare. Push insurance, medical, and moral education.
What more do you want?
Right now my choices and prices are only being limited by the limited number independent thinkers. We don’t need a government ran health insurance imitation; we need alternatives. Medi-Share is great example of a working alternative, but of course comes with the draw back of only being offered by hypocritical Christians. Let new hospitals and clinics open up by dropping all the huge costs that regulations impose. Every other business has upfront pricing, but hospitals don’t for a verity of reasons that all include the government. The government is the problem, not the solution.
Social “Security” is a burning pile of funds meant to replace our moral responsibilities. People can/ should save on their own and if they don’t they should bear the consequences. Consequences are great educational demonstrations.
If we actually wanted change healthcare for the better, we would move away from the government and focus on education. People have become so ignorant they don’t think of hospitals and insurance companies as businesses. Does anyone even realize doctors only get three years of medical school; that’s one more then nurses. If they went to medical school for double that, they would still be able to become doctors sooner if they weren’t required to attend four+ years throwaway school. Bring on the doctors, bring on the nurses, open more schools and require less non-related B.S.
