WHAT CAUSES THE MOST BANKRUPTCIES ? MEDICAL DEBT DRIVES THE MOST...READ ON NYT


(click the title to read more)And as a neighbor pointed out to me- once someone has damaged credit rating and declared bankruptcy- they also can not get Health Insurance or qualify for any program. The Other issue is that 500,000 Americans are fighting Cancer without Health Insurance, these people are fighting for their lives after Insurance Companies have cancelled or denied care and also are wrestling with massive debt while they do this...and yes losing homes and filing for bankruptcy. This is WRONG.

In my hood, I knew two people that died, at home, without the Healthcare they needed, and their homes were claimed by the Banks...I walk by these homes everyday...haunted by this..and Knowing it is Happening all over the Country...
