Plan Choice Suggestions What can regular Americans who are fed up with their health insurance do about it?

I’ve written my elected officials in government. What else can we do? It’s depressing and it’s wrong. That people can’t get healthcare easily and affordably. People are dying early because they don’t get the care they need.

Bunch of red states have turned down Medicaid expansion which is paid for by federal funds. They don't want to help poor people. Now, Democrats aren't great for universal healthcare, but they are much better than Republicans.
