I'm and independent-progressive, politically speaking. I'm also a 40 year old christian who highly supports the passage of the health care bill being voted on today.
The dread of the politically conservative, and of the four-walled christian that this would hallmark our countries doom, is a poem as old as the common cold. The fear that abortions are certain to become the new national pastime should this happen, is a delusion.
Our common good health is a prerequisite to a happy life. Another small step towards offering this to more people in our country is possible, but to worry about the financial burden of doing this is cowardly. If every person who has children waited to give birth until they could afford it, the human race would have ended a million years ago.
I'll be damned if I let fear of debt keep me from offering a hand to others.
Have a good Sunday,
Dave
