Where is common snese

With all the negative news about our economy and standard of living, why are people and our politicians worried about a baseball player on drugs and a football team that may hve cheated.
We need to get our focus on how we can sve this country and its families.  Wasting time,money and effort on such unimportant situations is just plain stupid.
Peolple are loosing their homes and banks are playing with our lives.  There has to be answer that all of us can understand and imploment.  Any good thoughts out there??

National Health Insurance

Here we go again. Mrs Clinton wants you and I to build the coffers of the insurance and drug companies.  She wants each of to be forced to by health insurance because if we don't we are just another burden to those that do.(paraphrased quote).   Mrs. Clinton tried to make our system "better" while she was the first lady in Bill's first term.  What was produced was the extremely inefficent HIPPA system.  Now the cost of health care has balloned due to the cost of record keeping and the inabilty to share important information between health care professionals.  Just imagine what the additional cost of health insurance will do to our already struggeling familes and corporations.  Please think through the hype and politcal  redoric when sellection our next president.
