This was such an informative article! I really appreciated how it briefly explained what’s going on with health reform right now, and I really liked how it looked at how this issue specifically affects women. I am still confused about exactly what’s happening with health reform, and I hope we can talk about it a bit in class.

I think what concerned me the most were the statistics showing how women more likely than men to be dependents and more likely to lose their healthcare if their spouse loses their job. I think the idea of being financially dependent on someone and not having something like healthcare in your control just personally scares me a lot. And I wonder how the new health reform might address this.
