Our system of relying on employers for health insurance is fraying badly, and we're paying for some of the cost in this fashion. We should be concerned about it, analyzing it ... and determine if it is reasonable it's happening.

One of the major goals of health insurance reform is to bring down the cost.

For many years I didn't have health insurance.

But I can tell you what I believe: When tens of thousands of innocent souls have perished in Darfur-when 11 million children are without health insurance-when our colossal debt subjects our economic future to the whims of Asian bankers-no one can tell me that faith demands this Senate spend its time arguing over a handful of judges. No one with those priorities can use my faith to intimidate me.

Nobody likes insurance companies, especially health insurance companies.

Most Americans want health insurance.
