[Thinkingabout]

1. The affordable healthcare is a good thing.

When I talk to people who complain I ask them who do they think pays for health care of the ones using the system and they have to admit it falls on the people paying for health insurance and tax payers. Though this act is not perfect it is something we can build on. Go out and vote for reasonable thinking democrats in order for our great nation to thrive in today's world.
