President Obama: "Health Care is a Human Right"


Yesterday the President addressed the United States Congress about health care reform. He delivered a great speech (in my opinion) that got numerous standing ovations from various members of Congress. Unfortunately, most of the Republicans were not swayed by his speech in the least because they have more debt to special interests (big business/insurance companies) than they do to the citizens who are suffering from our collapsing health care system.

According to the Census Bureau, the number of people without health care rose from 45 million in 2007 to 46 million in 2008. This startling fact was brought to the President's attention and he and his cabinet have come up with a bill that will require ALL Americans by law to have health insurance. The proposed cost of this bill is $900 billion over 10 years and will be similar to how every American who drives a car is required to have auto insurance.

I agree with the bill and our President when he says that having health care is a human right! We are the Power Generation and the changes that our going on within the government will affect us 100% If you have questions ask someone who is knowledgeable to explain it to you. We must be aware of what is going on.

If you did not get a chance to see the speech please watch it and get informed!!
