They few that have affordable health insurance are part of a group health insurance plan provided by their employers. Even group health insurance can be costly, especially if the employee adds their spouse and children to the group health insurance.

So many Americans depend on their employers to offer group health insurance. Small businesses, while wanting to offer group health insurance, many not be able to afford to offer affordable health insurance to their employees. With businesses feeling the pinch of the recession and unemployment rampant, Americans are getting scared.
