1. Don't say NO on health care until
you see what is deemed, defended and supported in Tennessee as "Acceptable Standards of Health Care".. http://www.wisecountyissues.com/?p=62 In East Tennessee, Profit Care comes ahead of Patient Care.

2. Really. How can anyone in TN be against Universal Healthcare?
I suppose those who have good insurance don't want any more competition for dr. appts.:eyes:

It simply boils down to wishing others ill will. Not wanting EVERYONE to have access to decent health care is definitely a MORTAL SIN!

What does Jesus think about that? :shrug:
