Most of those who have insurance think that they have to pay too much for their insurance and visits to the doctor. So, I think that most of them are hoping that 'something' is 'done to them', in the form of 'free' healthcare. Or, at least, I think they might prefer to pay higher taxes instead of being able to itemize and control their healthcare expenditures. it is my opinion, based on personal research, that the majority of people who have insurance do not like their insurance.

Even people who have health insurance would benefit from knowing they can have coverage if they lose their job.
