Enhager,

Thank you for adding the additional information.

I hope this helps to convince Americans how much healthcare needs to be reformed. There are a lot of people without health insurance and we can reduce cost by treating people before they get sick.

Our society needs to get back to helping people without always looking to make a profit.
