re: 70% of those had insurance.
What's your premise here? Is it your thesis that we should provide government support for ALL major causes of bankruptcy?
Of course not. What's the disconnect here? I'm talking about medical bankruptcies. This is a situation which doesn't exist in other countries. The fear of being sick isn't matched with the fear of personal financial ruin.
Again, most of these people in this study HAD health insurance. Given that the entire premise of this political argument was "insuring the uninsured," what conclusions should actually be drawn from this? That somehow Obamacare will magically avoid the problems that apparently every other form of health insurance has?
I'm laughing you didn't include containing costs in that statement, because of course anyone proposing keeping the status quo is ignoring a problem that will bankrupt us all.
Yes there will be problems with any new system. The current one must be fixed regardless.
