It's really been an incredible week in our country. Unfortunately the whole health care reform issues seem to have become a huge pissing contest between Democrats and Republicans. I hate to get all political, so I won't. I just believe that if you're going to express an opinion, it should atleast be an informed one. And I'm not talking about being informed by the news or people like Glenn Beck- I'm talking about going right to the source and reading some of it yourself. It's worth being informed about this. Drink your own Kool-Aid!!
So here is the link for the bills. The second one has the summary.

Here's a link that again has a summary.

And I've heard a lot of people talk about how they don't want to pay for others to get insurance. Here is a great study done by the Kaiser Family Foundation (non-partisan, not for profit) that examines how we pay now.
