Number of Uninsured Adults Climbs

Not surprisingly, it was reported on the website Workforce Management that the number of uninsured adults is climbing.  According to the website, 59 million adults did not have insurance for a portion of 2010, while 30 million adults did not have health insurance for at least a year.  While the numbers are staggering, they are not surprising.
