Healthcare weaves through many middle class concerns

WKSU's M.L. Schultze reports
News Director
M.L. Schultze
With mortgage problems, inflation, a recession and unemployment ascending on the list of American's concerns, health care has lost some of its standing. But in its latest examination of the squeeze on the middle class, the Akron Beacon Journal found health care remains an issue that weaves through many of the others.

Squeeze on the Middle Class -- health care





Listener Comments:

Taxing health care will grow the problem. Some employers already financially burdened will drop coverage. Some employees will not be able to pay for continued coverage, therefore will be forced to drop health coverage. Needless to say the emergency centers will be over burdened and will probably cost more than what the health care tax generates. The end result is lose - lose.
