Just something to think about. I started my day by listening to one of my favorite songs. Followed by a prayer for all of my family and friends. Hope you have a SUPER Day and may God bless you in all that you do!!

Just something to think about. Just read an article on the shutdown and all this fighting about the Affordable Care Act. The writer has a very simple solution to the problem. Some people think it is the greatest thing since ‘sliced bread’ while others think it is a precursor to Armageddon. In my view nothing would be better than if everyone could have affordable healthcare. The issue I have and that the article I read addresses is that the ACA needs to apply to everyone equally. There should be no exceptions, exemptions or waivers. It is the law of the land and should apply to everyone. Not just those who cannot give tens of thousands of dollars to a political campaign, have political clout because of who they are or who they know or because of their affiliation with some group or company. Not just those that can only afford a silver plan, but to those that can afford a Cadillac plan. Not just the ditch diggers, but the corporate presidents. Not just “we the people”, but our elected representatives, all of them. Everyone. Now the suggestion that Mr. Root came up with is that the party being blamed for all of this needs to pass a simple law and send it to the Senate. It would fund the government, including the ACA, and only have one even simpler requirement that the ACA apply to all of us equally, period. Now is the time for these people to do what is not only right, but that which is also fair to all of us.
