Dear Governor, I would like to add my name to the list of people who would like to see you support universal health care coverage for all Californians. I have Blue Shield and it is ridiculous how much it costs and how much time and money it wastes. I just went to see my doctor for an annual checkup and he wanted me to do some tests. The two visits to his office and the costs of the tests cost me about 2 hours in time just dealing with the 3 billing offices (the doctors, the test office and blue shield). I also saw Michael Moore’s movie and while I might not agree with all of it, I think his main point that too much money is wasted by “for-profit” medical insurance. The fact that we pay the most and get the least amount of service in the developed world is a testament to that. I think it is high time we get universal health care coverage. Since the federal government is taking no action on this, being completely bought out by insurance and pharmacuetical money, we have to do it hear. I understand there is a bill now, SB840, in the legislature for universal coverage. I urge you to support this bill publicly and help push it through. Thank you for your time. Sincerely, Charlie Rebich
