1. Who needs health care reform?

Everybody is rich and healthy, right?

2. There's one thing we can afford less than Health Coverage Reform:

no health coverage reform.

3. We are going to GIVE $100 Million to Mexico for the War On Drugs

We are going to GIVE $100 Million to Mexico for the so-called War On Drugs? $100 Million from where? People sleeping in the streets and tent cities under bridges.. yet we can find $100 Million to GIVE to Mexico?

They are going to ramp up a useless war in Afghanistan.. yet we can't afford health care?

If I seem overly cynical... I am just tired of BAU (business as usual) in Washington.

4. We can not afford to go without health care reform.

Just look at the economy single payer health care system will give us.
