MIA: Real Health Care Reform

Health care reform should be to help people not companies --real health care reform that would * help those who get denied insurance--such as victims of domestic abuse (see http://www.alternet.org/politics/143142/really_sick%3A_if_your_partner_beats_you%2C_insurance_companies_don%27t_have_to_give_you_coverage);
* the public option necessary for many with chronic health care issues such as HIV & AIDS (see http://www.thebody.com/index/govt/reform.html);
*health care reform would not include drive by major operations (its not take two breasts and call me in the morning);
* health care reform would cover all people--using the ER as a clinic is very expensive:
*health care should not cause foreclosures;
and
* health care insurance should be disconnected people's jobs--it keeps people hostage to jobs.
