22. I consider it shameful
that a country as rich as the U.S. doesn't have universal health coverage. The HMO's don't do anything but add another layer of expense to health care costs.

If this country would use common sense, we would establish priorities that emphasize health care, education, housing, and job creation. We would end the ridiculous "War on Drugs" that keeps so many of our citizens in prisons.

It is a shame and a disgrace that the right-wing, who claim to be the party of family values, shows so little concern for the health of those families. Nobody in this country should have to die, or suffer because of lack of money. Nobody.
