In response to Health Care posted by BrianTubbs:
.
The health care crisis is a huge problem. It's not going to be an easy one to tackle.
.
And, of course, it's not the only problem facing us.
.
The problems are pandemic--all over the place. As long as we allow the wealthy and the corporate interests to keep convincing Joe Six Pack and his family that government can't handle our problems, we're going to be kept back.
.
We need dialog and we need it big time in our society. We need to put an end to the lobby groups that are financing the political campaigns of McCain and Clinton. It won't be easy because of the First Amendment. But, we need spokespersons that will stand up for the middle and lower classes.
.
Cigarettes are a terrible curse on our health care system and contribute to cardio vascular problems even more so than poor eating habits. The problems are exacerbated by private interests that throw the keebosh into programs aimed at making things better.
.
One of the main lies that we are being fed is that government cannot figure out how to do things better. Another of the bigger lies has to do with the one that claims reduced taxes are good for the economy. These lies are so pervasive on the media that we don't even question them.

When is the last time you ever heard of Joe Six Pack picking up some of the writtings from men like Robspeirre? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximilien_...
