No Health Insurance

There are millions of people in this country that doesn't have a health insurance, now that swine flu is spreading I am wondering if we need to pay all the medical bills when we get infected in this serious flu, because I noticed a high bill when my husband have been hospitalized was sky rocket, imagine the hospital just took his blood pressure and forwarded him to any other facility but we had to pay at Parkview Hospital of Pueblo Colorado a staggering $4,500, I was about to collapsed when I saw the bill, they are simply robbing people, I want the government to set the right rate in this hospitals, because this kind of institution kill their patience not because of their illnesses but because they are overcharging them, won't you prefer to die than paying the hospital your entire life? It's just the same story seems like they are killing me too. Sucks!
