We prefer the single-payer option. Make it Medicare for everybody. Medicare works very well for us. We need, at the very least, a public option. Without competition, health-care costs will just continue to escalate and break the plan. We do not want restrictions on womenās health care. Tax the wealthier citizens.
If this cannot be in the bill, just scrap it and start over. The American people want this, and we are tired of not being represented because so many in the Congress and Senate have been bought off by the health-care industry.
