John Edwards at a NH event, responding to a comment from an audience member, cited a statistic that really caught my attention.
If you develop breast cancer but you don't have health insurance, you are 30-50% more likely to die.
There's a youtube clip of the exchange, which is touching. The woman making the comment is a single mom who has huge medical bills. She's spoken to Elizabeth Edwards during her treatment. Elizabeth is at this event in the clip.
