Health Care

Republican or Democrat . . . doesn't matter a lot to me at the moment (aside from the fact that we're essentially limited to two political parties).

What does matter is extending health care to all of the people who live in the U.S. The Democratic plan doesn't go far enough, but it's better than the Republicans', which doesn't seem to exist.

You would think that after 200+ years we could manage to get a basic necessity like this done right.

And cost? Give me a break. If we were not so busy fighting wars we could pay for health care several times over.

I live in a country--South Korea--that, in some ways, is much less progressed than the U.S. Yet I have affordable health insurance.

America's politicians seem to be so caught up in other issues that they cannot address the ones that are most important. That's a shame.
