Go Figure

It seems our attempts to fix our rising health care issue might be coming just in time. Reported on at time.com an independent economic group has found that

the United States ranks near the bottom in life expectancy among wealthy nations despite spending more than double per person on health care than the industrialized world's average

If this doesn't convince you that we need health care reform, what will. Were spending over 7000 dollars per person on health care, 3x more than the average in industrialized countries, and our mortality rates are still high. I think its time to turn our health care system from treating sickness, to prevention.
