Study Shows Millions of US Children Without Health Insurance

In many parts of the world, parents have two choices -- either pay the full cost of medical care for their children or hope that free treatment will be available under government programs. In the United States, much of the cost of a child's medical care is usually absorbed by the family's health insurance plan. But for parents, the cost of health insurance has steadily outstripped the cost of inflation in recent years. VOA's Melinda Smith has more on the dilemma many working parents face when their child gets sick.

This new Gov-controlled Health Care Plan won't let you add your grandson to your private health care plan either. The Gov keeps prices HIGH by refusing to let a FREE MARKET operate in Health Care nor in Health Ins. Politicians create the problems & then try to Covince you only the Gov (meaning them) can fix it. DONT LET them get the the complete control they seek.
