Obama Moves Toward Public Health Plan Advocacy For All Who Want It

President Obama has  recently moved toward advocacy of a public health plan available to whoever wants it, a step beyond what he promoted in his Presidential campaign.

While he suggests that most people will want to keep their employer based plan of health insurance,  it is a fact that many employees are losing health care coverage or have inadequate plans offered at work.

Also,  there are millions of people who pay exorbitant premiums on personally purchased health care plans.  And of course, there are nearly 50 million people who have no health insurance at all. 

It is a well known fact that many people who go bankrupt do so because of outrageous health care bills, even those who do have health insurance plans.

So it is very positive that Obama is going the extra mile,  and calling for public health care opportunities for those who want it, no matter what their status on health care at the moment.
