Health care woes cannot continue

The system is, if not completely broken, severely damaged. If you pay for your own health insurance, you know exactly what I am talking about. The average single American pays around $500 to 600 a month for coverage and usually with a high deductible. Insurance and healthcare costs have sky-rocketed in the past few years. If we, the American public, want change, we must be the change.

I urge everyone to contact their representatives of both the House and Senate and voice their support for H.R. 676.
