Expanded coverage right for America

We as a nation are finally moving in the right direction taking care of the underinsured and uninsured. Working in the health care industry, I’ve seen that without a doubt Americans are giving away their hard-earned dollars to the insurance and pharmaceutical companies without getting much in return. For years our children between ages 18 and 26 could not be covered by their parents’ insurance unless they were in college full time. Now, thanks to the new health care reform, all those individuals are now covered.

Thank you, Mr. President and all the hard working people in Congress, for helping to make this happen. If certain people in Congress or the Senate are fighting the system to roll back the health care act, one can only assume that they are solely invested with the insurance and pharmaceutical industries and not working for the heart and health of the population at large.
