If you want to keep the status quo, see the following article about health care premiums going up 15% this year – when prices in the broader economy are either flat or falling:

As to whether the majority of Americans want health care reform passed this year, I quote Bruce Merrill’s recent poll of Arizona voters (more conservative in general than the country as a whole, who found:

“On another topic, Arizona voters want the U.S. Congress to vote on a health care reform bill this year. Sixty-seven percent said it was important for a vote to be held, 30 percent said it was not important and three percent were undecided. When asked if a public option should be included in a health reform bill, 44 percent said they want the bill to have a public option, 49 percent were opposed and 7 percent said they didn’t have an opinion.”
