There's a lot of yelling and finger pointing going on about healthcare reform or Obamacare, as it is known in some circles. What's impressed me most is people are coming alive about a political issue, so much so, that they're showing up at meetings with elected officials and are passionately engaging them.
And that's when we get the big let down. What should become a moment of enlightenment from our leaders, turns into a patronizing "don't yell at me, I'm on your side" exchange. What could be an opportunity to teach, convince, and assuage fears ultimately turns into a conversation with no real answers. We've seen it time and time again.
"We the people" are looking for clarity and guidance, but most often it's just ducking and dodging from Congressmen.
So, where is the place of understanding on matters concerning the current healthcare reform legislation? The truth is I've looked on the internet for just such a place, but most sites with information can't really be taken at face value. Granted, you should always process new information with a dose of skepticism, but there remains a huge void in getting the facts.
Nonetheless, here are some of the links for information on Healthcare Reform:
