In the closing days before the House passed Health Care Reform package, a few students from a Northern Virginia High School were able to attend the President’s health care reform rally at George Mason University. Here is the account of Jasmine, one of the students who attended the rally:
I thought attending the Health care event was a very humbling experience. Due to the fact, prior to this event he came to give a speech at my school on the first day. Just to be able to see the President in person instead of watching him at home was exciting and very suspensful I might add. The message I took away from the speech is that it’s best to work with what you already have. What I liked most about Obama’s plan of action was that he plans to use the money/package we already have to prevent further debt and lower our deficit. I like the fact that teenagers (like myself) were still going to be able to be on our parents insurance plan so we won’t go broke trying to pay for our own insurance.

Actually, Harris, honey, Fox News is the only news station that reports both sides of a story, Republican and Democratic! You may want to watch it sometime; get some real insight, sweetie!
Sure wish they would have passed this without going through the back door. Oh yeah, they couldn’t get the votes for that. And for good reason. If it was such a good idea, why could it not be passed when the Dems had 60 in the senate? Cause this is not the best idea. Ask Mitt Romney and those in Mass how this forced care works out. Forced re-distribution of wealth is not charity, or good will.
