Letter to John Boehner

There must be something done to ensure that Americans who are already insured or not insured are able to survive not just their injuries, but also the medical bills they receive after an unfortunate diagnosis is made. Not only is this the right thing to do, considering we believe in LIFE, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness, but it also has an affect on our ECONOMY as more people go bankrupt due to medical bills.

A public option prevents BIG corporations who are obviously mismanaged from using individual's health as a money making scheme. Large corporations have too much power and I support legislation that limits for profit organizations controlling our health.

If we do not ensure that EVERYONE IS AND CAN REMAIN covered regardless of diagnosis, and that all necessary treatments are covered, we will lag behind other nations as we already have in other sectors of our economy.

When we rose to greatness we measured our strength in our expanding infrastructure, our bridges, roads, and buildings. We believed that we were done building our nation and stopped making progress. We have deserted the drive for improvement and ignored all that made us the powerful nation we are today. We must recognize this and begin to build our nation anew.
