I am so glad that someone else sees this as a problem. I wouldn't be in this field if it was based on the wage or benefits, because, there are none. So many co-workers that I have worked with have quit health care because of not having any insurance. Luckily at my job we are all middle aged women that have spouses that work with benefits at their jobs. I thank-you Carol for putting out this podcast.
