Why is it that16% of Americans have no health insurance & of those who do, 40% have such inadequate insurance?

That they can't even afford their co-payments, deductibles or drugs? (unless they're generic). And FYI, yes, I'm including those who have medicaid & medicare in the numbers of those that are insured. I am NOT including illegals in the numbers that are not insured, as they are not citizens or even legal residents. Nor have I included people that choose not to be insured because they don't feel they need it. I am just talking about legal Americans that need it.
--------------------
Because so many people have bought into the insurance companies propaganda that service would be even worse under a federalized system. We currently have people dying in hospital beds while waiting for service, we have wait lists for service, we have people being denied life saving procedures. How could it get worse? We're smart enough to learn from other countries.
