Barbara Boxer stated recently (I think it was on on Morning Joe) that without reform, people in California would paying 41% of their income on health insurance by 2016, if we don't pass reform. I have heard that number quoted elsewhere as well, so it is very true the current system is unsustainable. How many of you can afford to pay 41% of your income for insurance? (I don't know if that number includes co-pays and deductibles, or if it is just for premiums.)
