Economic Report: One In Five U.S. Workers Have No Health Insurance


http://www.laborradio.org/node/10771

Economic Report:

According to a new study nearly one in five U.S. workers are uninsured. That’s an increase from fewer than one in seven since the mid-199s. The numbers come from a new report by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation which discovered that 26.9 million workers were uninsured by the middle of the current decade up six million from the mid-1990s when the number was 20.7 million.

1. I'm one of the "1"....
53 yrs old. If I suffer ANY kind of extended illness or injury, my life would be COMPLETELY SHATTERED.

I wake up every day, and think, "Don't get HURT today, don't get SICK today"--my own little version of a 12 step program....ONE DAY AT A TIME.

K & R!!
