Health care reform is all the rage this summer. None of us knows where this is headed or even where to find objective information regarding this issue.
Thankfully, our elected officials won’t shove new health care legislation down our throats the way they did the economic stimulus package. Going back to the constituents during summer break is certain to open some eyes.
If each legislator heard one voter’s health care nightmare, we may be able to turn the tide on this issue. The media love these “Joe the Plumber” type stories.
Our representatives are sure to squirm a bit while listening in front of rolling cameras. The elephant in the room is the elitist health care package that we as taxpayers provide to those we elected.
We did a little research and found a lot of Web sites that “bend” the issue toward their own agendas. CNN’s health care reform FAQ unfolds the issue into ten, although objective, very basic questions and answers.
Senator Charles Grassley (IA) was interviewed on NPR’s Morning Edition again Wednesday morning, July 29. My personal favorite so far has to be this commentary as it relates to a New York Times story from earlier this week.

Even closer to our little slice of health care heaven, one of our clients discovered that CNN produced a video report about a wheelchair. If you have a moment to respond after viewing this report, here’s where you can leave your comments.
