I still have hope that we can overcome all the crisis' that face our nation today. Health Care, 2 Wars, Economic worries, we have prevailed in the past and I think we will again. My hope is that some type of health care reform will happen and soon. The only way I would not support reform would be if active service men and women and their families were forced to contribute and/or pay for their health care. They have endured and given up alot for our safety as a nation...we should thank them by continuing to take care of them in the best manner possible. I am married to a Vietnam Veteran, my nephew is in the Army and my son-in-law is in the Air Force, I appreciate them every day and understand the hardships that military families endure. We should continue to provide them with health coverage. Otherwise I absolutely support health care reform. It may not be perfect from the start, but what is? We can improve as we go along, but we have to take the first step in order to improve...Now Is the Time..
What do you think?

I support health care reform because our country cannot continue on the same course. We all know that it may not be perfect from the start, but we have to start somewhere. Let's improve it as we go. My concern is that our active service men and women, veterans and their families will be asked to pay for their health care. I do not support this because they have endured and have sacrificed alot for our safety and freedoms. We should thank our military and their families by providing them with the care they need and require. I am married to a Vietnam Veteran, my son-in-law is in the Air Force being deployed next week to Afghanistan, my nephew is in the Army, and I have several uncles who have served in the military during war time so I know and understand the hardships they and their families endure. Let's pass health care reform and take care of our military...it won't be perfect from the start, but what is? We can make it work..
