2)Analysis:
It has come to our attention that we are in a rut within distribution of medical insurance throughout the United States. what does this article have to do with economics? The cost is so great that people can not afford medical insurance. About one fourth of the United States population goes without medical insurance.For some the price is so outrageous it makes headlines in newspapers. http://www.nytimes.com/2010/02/16/health/policy/16anthem.html?scp=1&sq=health care crisis.Things get even harder trying to climb up from this economic downfall.

3)Explanation:
Health insurance has been available to people but to a certain extent. This event has happen because people can no longer afford many things because the economic recession let alone medical insurance. from watching the "sicko" i have learned a great deal about medical insurance and the horrible things it does to people.

4)Prediction:
hopefully by Feb 22nd President Obama and our nations Representatives and Senate will figure a solution to this great problem. with the goals that President Obama wants to pursuit it seems reasonable. He wants to at least insure thirty million people who are uninsured.
