More stories emerge documenting again and again the importance of reliable, affordable health insurance that cannot just disappear because of job change, job loss, income loss, intensive medical needs or the "discovery" of pre-existing conditions. My own belief is that a single-payer health care program financed by the federal government is the best option we have. So far, I have not seen one good argument against federally-funded single-payer health care in a system that delivers health care services through private for- or non-profit providers and/or through state or federal community health care centers. Justice demands that people be cared for and receive the care they need because health care is a human right, as it states in the U.N. Declaration of Human Rights.
May God move us, motivate us and inspire us to make this a reality for all U.S. residents and the people of the world.
