Child Health Care still Denied

The house failed to overide the white house veto on childrens health care. The debate bogged down on two key issues in the broader effort to cover the 47 million people uninsured in the U.S.: costs and the role of government in helping middle-class families, not just the poor. Even worse than the veto not being overturned in the the thought that this was supposed to be the easiest part of healthcare reform. This showed how difficult it will be in the years ahead to reform the larger insurance system, even though it is a top national priority. WE are in some rough years.

Yo ur blog was so long i had trouble keeping up, but ya i agree troubled years are in the future. We should be looking out for children's healthcare and stop being so lazy. The government needs to step it up, and people should stop saying "universal healthcare" cuz its to hard.
