Hi Wendall, I'm an independent insurance producer of 24 years, primarily focused in group and individual business. I have been a proponet of single payer healthcare since before the Clinton administration. Reason?...I'm 56 years old and an insulin dependent diabetic. "PICTURE ME UNINSURABLE". I am really disturbed why the administration cannot seem to make it's case or elaborate on the reasons why it is better for the country than the profit making private companies that are currently making decisions based on the bottom line rather than the common good of our society. I'm wondering , do you think that the effect of single payer which would literally elimate thousands of jobs in the private sector be a factor? I WOULD ALSO LIKE TO VOLUNTEER MY SERVICES TO YOU. I can provide any information to you about what's going on in the industry here in the St. Louis marketing area if your interested. I also have some good idea's about language that should be used to get consumers on the side of reform. Hope to hear from you. Larry
