More bad American health coverage news

According to a Guttmacher Institute reportin the years between 2000 and 2005 the percentage of American women of reproductive age covered by Medicaid increased from 9% to 12% but the uninsured part of the same population increased from 18% to 21% meaning that somewhere around 15 million women in that group had no coverage whatsoever.

Well done George. I'm willing to bet that your daughters don't fall into either category now do they?
