Next year, about five million people in the U.S. won't be able to afford health insurance.

I am one of them.

My family insurance costs $2,600 a month, which we simply cannot afford.

Now, like many others, I have no insurance.

Not having insurance worries me because medical care is expensive, and someone in my family has had breast cancer.

We can only buy insurance for two out of four family members, which makes it hard to choose.

The U.S. government spends a lot of money every year on weapons and wars but is unwilling to spend more to help people buy insurance.

Actually, the money to buy insurance for everyone is less than the cost of one warship.

Many families struggle to live because they cannot afford insurance.

We hope the government cares more about people's health instead of only focusing on war.
