My Issue is people without health insurance.  Several people have lost there health insurance for whatever the reason may be, and some simply can't afford to pay for health insurance.  This issue affects everyone, unfortunately one never knows when they are going to become ill, or when there family members or children will.  In the past couple of years there have been several people that have become unemployed and can't afford health insurance.  This issue really affected some of my family members.  For example my sister is a single mother with a one year old child.  She works full time, she doesn't qualify for the states medicaid program, unfortunately her employer doesn't offer health insurance.  What are people supposed to do in these cases.  I chose this issue to discuss how everyone is impacted, since most don't know the importance of actually being treated when they need it the most.
