i'd just be happy with a family doctor that could tend to my girls when they need it...once upon a time, we had health insurance, it was wonderful...both of my daughters had the same doctor, we had only a 15 dollar co payment, and for whatever needs we had, it was covered....it was nice, and then presidents changed, our jobs went over seas, and now...i can't even afford to make sure my daughters are healthy...

before anything can be done for help, the government has to place it's citizens first, illegal and legal aliens are practically guaranteed healthcare. then they have to change their household limits...they take into consideration only rent and utility bills...they don't consider, insurance, car payments, or any other necessary financial obligations that the working class needs to work. for all their preaching about "american family" values, perhaps they should focus more on them...

maybe a portion of the social security can be used for a medical program, i'd rather have that than discussion of putting it into some stocks...or any of the other options, that just allow them to use the money for their needs, and i really don't think will resolve any of the social security issues that elders are dealing with now, and i don't see how stocks that are as unpredictable as the government can assure anyone of future security once we're too old to work.

at least i'll have healthy children...i don't need to grow old, and hope it's there, my husband and i can take steps to do that now...my children need to grow up healthy and be successful, then they can pay for my retirement...

not power to the people, power to the children.
