    Both are issues where the US has worse access than other developed nations.

  2. Meghan R Says:

    because they are worried about the world and the troubled people in this world who need help and want to be able to provide to the less fortanute

    Health because so many Americans are inunsured and aren’t able to get healthcare with it being so expensive. Education because, first, the lower-income jobs are being taken either overseas or by people willing to work for less. The people who would have worked those jobs are now jobless. We need to make sure that people can afford to get an education so that their job opportunities can widen.

    My opinion is that those functions are to be left to the states under the Constitution of the United States, specifically the exclusive enumerated powers and the tenth amendment thereof.

    However, Ron Paul’s idea which gives 100% tax CREDIT for all money spent on insurance or medical and lets you rather than the ins co keep, tax free, interest on any employer medical accounts, is in keeping with the constitution.

    For education, tuition would get a complete tax credit as well, from Ron Paul.

    It is the distortions of our economy due to lack of following the Constitution and the law that makes our Universities, world class, compete with stronger money across the globe and shoots up the ‘dollar’ cost of education above what we can afford. Education (like house ownership) is not looked at for determining ‘acceptable’ inflation rates or recession status.

    It is unsound money that is our problem, and only Ron Paul will address this.

    I like Obama’s stand on those issues.

    where i live, the local and state governments are preventing the next hospital in the area from opening (or even beginning construction for that matter), and just look at the product the public education system is putting out…..that one is obvious.

    cuz people were dum enough to vote w in twice, we need better education. my wife and i have to pay 800 bucks a month for a healthcare policy, a bit much i think

    The federal government has done a terrible job of handling each of them. It’s time to return their care to people, not Washington.

  9. Indiana Says:

    It is an issue because the Insurance companies have higher rates and the insurance commissioners have allowed them to do it. Each state has a commissioner, and we need to watch how we elect our commissioners, and the lobbyist in D.C. are all Hillary’s friends, she is dangerous. Her plan will have us all on welfare, and we don’t need that, we need, affordable insurance so we can go to our own doctors and buy our medicine where we want to. Obama’s plan gives us affordable insurance, he will tackle the commission and get the insurance companies to lower premiums, and for those who can’t afford it then he will make it easier for them to afford it with $2500 tax breaks for insurance, its our money, and if he can give it back to me to help me take care of my family with insurance, all for the better. I like Obama, and I have never voted for a man like him, and it is about time I get off that tune, and he has my support. If you know what I mean.

    Here’s the information. People want these things, the President CANNOT give it to us, the Congress must. The President cannot even submit a bill, the House of Representatives must.

    So, I say vote for the best character and forget all the bullshit speeches about giving you stuff they don’t have to give, and you’d better think of the cost of what they are offering if your Congress gives it to you. Heaven forbid some of you welfare people might have to work!

    Hillary now, or John McCain in November, at least we KNOW he’s a loyal and patriotic American. NObama.
