If you don't support this bill then you are against Black interests". From this they assume that centralized control and financing of health care is in our best interests.<br /><br />Such a plan does nothing to improve the ability for our people to help ourselves to care for ourselves.<br /><br />I haven't heard a call for more Black doctors and registered nurses. <br /><br />I struggle to understand how a people can consider themselves as "progressives" and not consider the increased capabilities that they must shoulder as a means of allowing our people to live at a higher standard.Constructive Feedbackhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13417405356099504421noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19127699.post-71310114044611556202009-08-12T19:41:10.087-07:002009-08-12T19:41:10.087-07:00This is such an important topic.
