Hello Tavis, while the healthcare bill may take a few years to get in effect, this is one of the reasons Im working so hard within my means to get the project off the ground. I know the Senior Citizen program within the project will not solve the over all problem in the healthcare but it will provide some help until the bill goes into effect. Some help is better than no help at all. I feel we most all do our part in solving the problem of healthcare.

What "faith" are you talking about keeping?

What about "Health Reform?" If one in two teens of the next generation are insulin dependent, we had best think about where our problem really erupts.

Pesticides, corn subsidies... these rob our health in ways that doctors cannot cure.

I'm sure that after this, Tavis too will become the target of the ignorant right wing. It will only be a matter of days before they link him to some ridiculous scandal involving ACORN in some way. This country is being held hostage by the minority ignorant rednecks and something has to be done about it soon.
