On his show Tuesday night, Glenn Beck talked about a plan by the Obama administration to repeal the "Freedom of Conscience Act", which gives health care workers the option of refusing to participate in medical care they find objectionable. Known formally as the "Provider Refusal Rule", sometimes referred to improperly as the "abortion rule", it [...]
One thing in this health care debate that has frustrated me to no end is how both Republicans and Democrats make it seem like unless you have a job you cannot have health insurance at all. Well this is kind of true as without the job you can’t pay for insurance, but they make it [...]

One point that is continually asserted in favor of the health care reforms that were recently signed into law by the President is this notion that health care is a right.

Anyone who has conversed with me in detail knows how I feel about parents substituting prayer or homeopathy for actual medicine in treating their children. In early 2008, the case of Madeline Neumann received international attention and once again brought the case of faith-based treatments to the forefront of international scrutiny.

On Netflix, I rated the documentary 3 [...]

Unfortunately H1N1 has claimed another life: Article: “Kansas Man, 75, Dies From H1N1 Flu” And this recent death is in line with what I’ve been hearing about H1N1: if you’re in good health, you have nothing about which to worry. Save the vaccines for those at greatest risk. Why are we a society so concerned [...]
