For me, nothing; except that my health care plan costs are going up in the double digits every year. And the plan is adjusting what it covers; i.e., used to cover 100% of diagnostics, now only covers 80%. I'm not old enough for Medicare and if everything I've read is true, it'll be bankrupt before I can ever collect that which I've paid into for year.
I'm lucky in that I can afford health insurance.

But, so many people don't have health care insurance and can't afford an individual plan. I know people who don't go to the Dr. because they can't afford it. These are people that work.

I don't want the government to create another health care system. But, I would like to see them to come up with a way for people to join an affordable group plan when their employer doesn't offer one.
