Of all the health care plans offered by the Dem candidates, only DK's would have actually covered everyone.
The others were all about covering "families," even though a lot of married couples have at least one person who is eligible for medical coverage through their job.
To a single self-employed person over fifty (e.g. me), Kerry and the rest either offered exactly what I already have (high-deductiable insurance that I can deduct from my taxable income) or didn't mention single people at all.
Most children these days rarely need anything but routine maintenance, although I realize that there are exceptions.
It's those of us who are too old for cheap insurance and too young for Medicare who are being squeezed.
