1. A good friend just got back from Southeast Asia.
While there, she met several Americans who travelled
there as "dental tourists." One was there to get some
work done that would cost her $10,000 out of pocket
here in the States, at about 1/10th of the price.
2. A self-employed acquaintance here went in for a
nuclear stress test. He and his wife budgeted $5,000
for this, as that is their deductible for the year.
So clearly something needed to be done, the question
is — was this it?
While I think the law is a gargantuan mess in some
ways, it seems that our health care system is even
more so. I further believe that we are all in this
together, that we are one nation, not just a bunch of
individuals, and insofar as health care goes, your
decision not to buy it directly effects how much I will
pay when I do buy it.
So, especially given the fact that Romneycare in
Massachussets has seemd to both cover more people
and lower costs, and while I hold my nose, I am glad

that Congress tried to tackle one of the most significant
issues small businesses face — health care costs and
deliverability.
I hope the law is upheld.
Today's tip: Want to promote constitutional values in
our society? Here is one way: My brilliant daughter is
part of an incredible program that reaches 6 million
high school students every year, called We the People:
The Citizens and the Constitution. The program just
lost all of its federal funding.
This vital program is a national competition wherein
student are given constitutional issues to analyze and
then spend upwards of a year studying the
constitution, case law and history. They then compete
against one another in front of judges, lawyers, and
civic leaders. The program is continuing on through
private donations. If you want to help, go to
http://new.civiced.org/about/give/donate. (And as the
national finals are coming up this month, let me just
say, go Lincoln!)
