Everyday more information comes out,
this idea of protest against the government running health care is all part of the usual game.

The wealthy and powerful use the less informed as pawns!

Some of us who teach math support health care reform, and are not about to allow ourselves to be manipulated by the wealthy and powerful who don't really care about health care for the rest of us, but only care about increasing their wealth and power.

I support reform, and am not without compassion. Instead of teaching math, its time for you to do a little math:

Which equation produces the largest number:

(a) 2.4 x 10^12 / 3.0 x 10^8

(b) (2.4 x 10^12 + 6.0 x 10^11) / 3.0 x 10^8

You know, I really resent this comment. The implication is that only Un-Americans favor health care reform. Americans have varying opinions on things. That's the beauty of America.
