My stomach is in knots today as I wait for the outcome of the health reform vote in Congress.
My legislators are voting for it (after some wrangling about Medicare, but still). To my readers in the USA: if your legislator is on the fence, please call her or him. Congresspeople are working today and need to hear from you. A New York Times graphic from Friday will give you a sense of where your legislator stands on this issue. Check it out.
And please, take action. It is insane that this vote is so close.

ReplyDeleteAnd by this point, I can say "Congratulations, America, and welcome to the world of socialized medicine!"
ReplyDeleteThe British experience suggests that you'll never be short of something to complain about again. Especially if they try to take it away from you.
More serious, I'm weirdly proud of the Democrats for actually following through with this. Daren't ask my Florida based mother what she thinks, though.
