This was posted on several friends' profiles today:

"No one should die because they cannot afford health care, and no one should go broke because they get sick. If you agree, please post this as your status for the rest of the day."

After I posted it on mine, several more friends followed. Not sure who else has seen this yet, but it wouldn't hurt to participate, if you're on Facebook.

I've learned that the lifesyle sold to us on TV is crap made in China.
