Were currently in the deepest recession since the great depression. Peoples 401K plan's have been hit hard or wiped out. Wall Street dam near went under, as with many other major institutions. Banks have been taken over, GM went bankrupt. Unemployment is through the roof.
Uh, HELLO, the economy is in a state of crisis right now, of global proportions (proportations maybe?)! Those who fail to acknowledge that need to get their head out of their azz and come up for air! Anything and everything that can be done should be done to address it. Health reform is only one aspect of a greater plan to recovery.
I see the monkey with the brief case, CDC, but I was expecting an elephant.
