An estimated 50 million people in US lack coverage, but they haven't marched on Washington

An estimated 50 million people in US lack coverage, but they haven't marched on Washington: "If the uninsured were a political lobbying group, they'd have more members than AARP. The National Mall couldn't hold them if they decided to march on Washington.
But going without health insurance is still seen as a personal issue, a misfortune for many and a choice for some. People who lose coverage often struggle alone instead of turning their frustration into political action."
