Big thanks to my friend Tom Burris, Dallas area mortgage broker, for the domain name suggestion.  I am about 25% of the way through the bill at this point, for what it's worth.  As I expected, I have seen some great stuff therein, and some not-so-great items, too.  I think the language needs to be tightened up considerably to avoid abuse, both from non-citizens and … (19 comments)

A Layman's View of the Proposed Health Care Bill (HR 3200) - I am reading through the whole thing....slowly
After my first post on this topic, I was a little surprised at how many emails and phone calls I received, the overwhelming majority of which were in support of what I am trying to accomplish.  However, there were also a handful of not-so-nice messages mixed in.  One person called me "naive" (I feel like I am probably closer to "hardened" sometimes), … (23 comments)

That is about to change.  Last night, I began a journey of sorts.  I intend to read the entire bill.
Yes, I know that it is not in its final form, but it's a start.  I want to see for myself what the truth is.  I don't like … (17 comments)
