Health Care and Voting

Exercise Your Right to Vote

Many of my clients are caught in a terrible situation regarding health care. When they lose their jobs, they lose their health insurance. COBRA isn’t an option for many of them. It’s simply too costly for those just trying to survive.  COBRA INFO It’s true that some are able to get on medicaid, but for others that’s a long battle, and some just don’t qualify. So, what are they supposed to do for healthcare? How do they get medical treatment? How do they get their medications?

Although my clients often turn to me for answers, I have little advice to give them. I tell them of a few options, but it is clear that a real solution is needed. So, after I inform them of the limited options available, I usually remind them to vote.

We are lucky, that in this country, we have the right to vote. It is a precious right and one that everyone should exercise. Registering to vote is not hard and casting your vote is worth the effort. Let your voice be heard. And, if healthcare for everyone Universal Healthcare is important to you, get out there and vote for the candidate you think will best advance that cause.

Remember election day is November 4, 2008.
