I am 50 years old, relatively healthy.  I lost my job and took a job as a contractor.  Very happy to be employed but the health-care benefits are extremely expensive.  I have a high deductible and I worry about how I will pay for any serious illness.  A national health-care option is critical for my future.  The politicians have insurance so they do not see this as an urgent issue, they just see it as a vehicle for re-election.  Annoying beyond words!
