Much of the focus at election time is geared toward the economy and other domestic issues.  Most often, talk revolves around tax cuts and social security, but there is an increasing demand for health care reform.

 Whether or not you have health insurance can rely heavily on what your employer has to pay for coverage.  Some opt not to offer coverage at all, due to rising premiums – a result of increased malpractice insurance and uninsured absorption costs.
