System's due for a melt down pretty soon IMO. Last attempt at full reform was Hillary's at the start of Bill's reign -- it was a stupidly complicated proposal that died the death it deserved.
Even our next door, born-again, fish and "W" bumper sticker, 60 year old told me: "We need universal health care." Americans don't usually fix stuff till it's totally broke, e.g. immigration.

As reported by Reuters on April 13:
"The U.S. hospital industry has grappled with treating the rising numbers of uninsured, now at 46 million in the United States."
Food for thought, eh?
