That is the irony of America.

We went into Iraq "to spread democracy." We supervised Iraqi elections without requiring Iraqis to have ID cards. But now in the US there are moves underway to deny a significant number of US citizens their right to vote!!! What a laughing stock we continue to be.

We have folks here who fight for the rights of the unborn. But they totally ignore the rights of the living. They refuse to pay for anything that would prolong their lives so that they could see the birth of their grandchild or the wedding of their child. These folks would not even want to pay for their education leave alone healthcare.

Watch the billions being donated to Romney by billionaires. How about using half that amount to create jobs and the other half to absorb the losses if any.

I go overseas on business very often. And these are the ridicules by Europeans and Asians that I am subjected to as a US citizen by choice.

I am on the same wave length as you with having to come up with a Health plan that is economically sustainable and "rationalizes" care. We'll get there eventually because we have to--it is just better to get there sooner.
