HAVE SAY ON CARE

Before waxing poetic over government health care, read the article in the August issue of Reader's Digest on health-care reform and a book titled Fatal Care by Robin Cook.

Then ask yourself if this dictator-type of health care is what you want.

If not, take a few minutes to let your senators and representatives know how you feel. It will cost only 29 cents.

With all the talk about freedom of choice, I should be able to choose whether I want to keep or purchase my own insurance or opt for the government's plan.
