Health care reform now
Passage now
As a voter with moderate views and good health insurance I urge passage of health care reform now. Some things are more important than deficit spending and higher taxes. Affordable health care should be at the top of the list. Where were all of these politicians that did not give deficits or waste a second thought when financing useless wasrs, social programs, pork, bridges to knowwhere, etc? Polls show that a majority of people support reform and the public option. The vocal and often screaming minority are not representative of those of us who recognize the need for meaningful reform and its benfit to the people. Now is the time to act and not worry about getting reelected.
