Health Care Reform

What is the answer? What is the prefect reform? Why not a public option?  There are people suffering in this country and Congress still don't get it. Is it that hard for them to sit with people they work with everyday and have a brain storming session on health care. I know first hand what it feels like not to be able to buy insurance because of a pre-existing condition. I had worked all my life and always had good coverage and when I got to the point I couldn't work anymore. I used the Cobra which was very costly until it ran out then I tried to buy a personal plan and no one would cover me. I ended up having to pay a lot at the SC High Risk Pool until I got on Medicare. I was blessed to have a loving brother who help take care of me and the cost for the two and a half years that it took for me to get on Disability. What happens to the people who don't have someone to help them like I did. The time to act on reform.
