 If twenty thousand families or singles all combined together in a group, to help each other pay medical bills what would that mean. If everyone payed 10 dollars a month everyone could actually pay their bills. If one family needed a surgery or some treatments that their insurance company won't pay a group could help out.

  This normally would be called community, the federal government really tries to help out but what about the middleclass who don't qualify for help. What about people who get married? What about the people who are 50 dollars over the federal poverty line what can they do? I am listening to people talk about protesting the massachusetts heath care reform because all the glitches are really hurting families. There is no time to protest no one can afford to get to the state house to protest no one can get a day off of work or childcare to stand in front of the state house and beg for a change. If we don't do something now how many more people will suffer in silence. What are we to do sit around and stay positive when oil companies are profiting billions to search for more oil where is it when are they going to get it? I understand its going to go up to 6 a gallon and we've had it easy but in countries where gas is 6 a gallon the daycare is free and retirement and public services don't have a long wait list.

   I also think that if we are in the greatest country in the world, with the best doctors in the world why are so many people being refused life saving treatments with their insurance companies? Money and profit and the silence of the hard workers who go to work every day. Most of the jobs in society earn less than 30,000 a year like our child care workers, nursing home attendants, burger flippers, coffee makers, and waiters and waitresses. Now the truck drivers will be earning less, the pizza delivery drivers won't earn enough people will just grin and bear it, why couldn't the fuel friendly cars come out a decade ago so we wouldn't have to go through this econmic hic up or recession bubble? 

  People aren't supposed to live in fear we are just supposed to do our jobs to the best of our ability and be positive. The leadership of our country is supposed to reflect the people, we aren't all money hungry tyrants we would care enough to check on our neighbors and give to charity. We aren't that bad whats going on!
