The sprawlmg dIstrict m- cludes Harper Woods, northeast DetrOIt and the Grosse Pomtes. Democrats FrancIs Hathaway, Grosse Pomte Shores; Neil Heffernan, DetroIt, Ronald Lan dry, DetroIt, Lamar Lemmons ill, DetrOIt, and State Rep.

The questIOns did not lend themselves to the two-minute answers reqUIred by the debate format Overall, the candidates seemed unprepared to focus on health care dIrectly, and instead incorporated their views on other subjects mto their comments A common theme, however, was uSing education as a wav of helpmg people make WI~ chOIces that could lead to lower health care costs. "The welfare system causes incentives for sexual Irresponsibility," said Heffernan, who sells sporting goods He said he was convmced that illegitimacy IS the cause of many of SOCIety's Ills - that young parents are more likely to develop behav- IOral and emotIOnal problems as well as get mto trouble WIth the law "It cuts across raCIal hnes," Heffernan saId Peter Ecklund Jr., an attorney, said an inordmate amount of attentIon has been paId to the financmg of public schools I rather than the upgradmg of educatIOn. 1 "We should show chIldren that they can do somethmg with their education," he said Ecklund offered some suggestions that he SaId would save money and simplify admImstration, such as consolIdating school dIstricts - especially in cities that have more than one district. Welfare reform IS also necessary, Ecklund saId, to encourage family unity. "Welfare makes It fairly irresponsIble for families to stay together It's crucial to say that welfare IS temporary and not a generatIOnal pattern of support," he saId. •V Amerrcan Heart Association Satellite chnics, run by hOSpItals, would reduce mdlgents' dependence on emergency rooms for minor arlments such as scraped knees and cold symptoms Demandmg that all employers prOVide coverage for employees, however, would only lead to the loss of Jobs, he sald Cosgrove, an Insurance sales man and hIstOrian, decned the high cost of health care, concen trated, he SaId, m salanes and goods and services Costs could be contamed, he SaId, by rem mg III the "hIdden" expenses of health care - malpractice awards and unnecessary test mg.
