We all deserve to have higher quality and lower cost health care. So many of us can't afford health insurance. It is very stressful not knowing if we have a serious problem; that we might not be able to get the help we need. Something needs to be done!!

The Constitution of the USA promises us life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. How can anyone have life without quality health care or liberty when one is held hostage by the cost of healthcare or pursue happiness when one's health and finances are held hostage by medical costs? It's time and more than time for universal health benefits for all. Personally, I don't care if it looks like "socialized" medicine. The free market has shown that it cannont guarantee high quality healthcare to America. The government mus create a health caare system that each and every one of us has full access to and it should cover any visitor to America. There are many models of this around the world/ It's time to look at all of them and create, from them, the US All Access Health Care administration that keeps what's good about our present system, what's best from the systems of other nations and is Americain in its scope and generosity.

Health care for all is a basic right inherent in the constitution of the United States. It is also a right that the religions of the world acknowledge.

Our US health care is a fragmented and broken system. The result is that we overspend yet achieve shamefully poor outcomes when measured on any objective scale vs. international performance. Half-way fixes are not going to remedy our situation. The knee-jerk objections of idealogs, vested interests and the uninformed - uncontrolled cost, lack of choice and socialized government - do nothing to improve matters. Many who are "sufficiently" insured ignore the models of more efficient healthcare models. Numbers of insured have a false sense of security until unfortunate matters prove otherwise. Many others forego or simply cannot afford insurance, hoping for the best. The poorest have third-rate access to care (and they are envied by the lower-middle class). It's far past time to make comprehensive (I didn't say unlimited) healthcare a priority.

No man, woman or child should be denied or go without quality medical care because they cannot afford it.
