Newman stance toward health insurance (What me worry, Im healthy!), Geyman delivers some sobering statistics:Eighty percent of the uninsured live in working families;Sixty-seven million Americans are uninsured for at least one month in a twenty-eight month period;One in five workers cannot afford insurance when offered by employers;Even in families with two full-time wage earners, ten percent are uninsured.Those who lack insurance face poor health care and increased risk of bad outcomes.
