Last night we had a fascinating discussion about health care. I was on the side that it is a right
and others believe that it is a privilege. My view is colored by the fundamental principle that
all citizens have the right to life ,liberty and the pursuit of happiness.Without proper health care
I do not see how any citizen can fully live the American dream. There are millions through no
fault of their own that have inadequate coverage and others have no coverage at all. The new
law is probably filled with major issues that need to be addressed but the goal in my mind is
correct.Dealing with illness is difficult even when you have phenomenal coverage. I hope that
the conversation in the future focuses more on solutions than the iron clad posturing that is currently
in vogue.
