Last night I joined together with our local Unitarian Universalist Community to learn some wonderful techniques for revitalizing and relaxing my face and we enjoyed a wonderful pot luck dinner.
After this we watched a very informative movie about how health care works in other countries. The movie called 'Sick Around The World' is an excellent look into how other countries structure health care. What they do works, far better than what we have. Switzerland was one of the best examples as far as mirroring where we are now and where they were not so long ago. They made major changes, in the face of opposition and we can too. No one has filed bankruptcy in any of these countries because of health care bills and they get good care.
I loved the movie and just now went to PBS to see what I could find. Lots of great resources and a page for Q&A, discussions etc. and the ability to watch the movie on-line there at no cost. You might consider a donation for the great work that PBS/FRONTLINE is doing.

In addition I found a second movie called Sick Around America that was made this year in March.

Also available to watch at PBS at no cost.
This is the kind of stuff that can get people motivated. Step one is to have the information, get educated and then with the knowledge form a plan of action.
One step at a time. It's grassroots action.
There was a story on NPR yesterday about a doctor in the Twin Cities that is taking steps to make care affordable. Click Here to read his story.It's grassroots and WE THE PEOPLE are doing it!
Blessings all,
