McCain’s Health Care
- Share via
* I’m pleased that Sen. John McCain is out of the hospital and the prognosis is hopeful (Aug. 22), but he and all the other Republican legislators must realize how fortunate he is. If the Senate did not legislate a good insurance plan for members, he might still be waiting for approval from his insurance company to get the treatment he needed. Worse yet, if he didn’t have any insurance, like so many working Americans, he would probably not have gone to a doctor because of the cost.
Wake up, senators! Do your job and let our country have universal health care like most of the other Western countries. The “let them eat cake” attitude won’t work anymore. The commoners are angry.
