Healthcare Plan for all NAR members

The headline on the National Association of Realtors website boasts of a membership of more than 1.2 million realtors.  Is it just me or is anyone else out there irritated by the lack of a health care plan for all NAR members.  You would think that 1.2 million members could buy a little purchasing power from insurance providers.  Every time I have opened up the Realtor magazine and read what the NAR is doing for me now it seems to be somewhat small compared to working on a healthcare plan. 

My office in Atlanta offers a healthcare plan as do most other offices around the Metro Atlanta area but it would seem that the collective power of 1.2 million members would command a much better plan than individual offices with 50-500 realtors each.  Since asking this question, I have not heard one good argument for why we cannot have a NAR healthcare plan. 

The thought does cross my mind that we realtors make our living off of our ability to negotiate so it just does not make sense why we cannot get this issue worked out and get a healthcare plan.  Let me know what you all think.  It is late, I may re-visit this post later with more content so check back for updates.
