I'm super busy these days with a new position at my job. I can no longer write and do homework at work. Oh well.. It happens. I now have to actually work..
But, that makes my home schedule tight for time with reptiles, dogs, and now writing and homework added to the list.
I have been slack. When I do write it is short and simple, which makes me sad.
I really hope that the new year brings me time to reconfigure a schedule to complete all that I need and want to.
What about you guys? Are ya'll just as busy and cramped for time?
Surely you wouldnt need to work with that many hubs,plus i follow you so i know your writing is top notch plus your other blogs and such,would of thought you could of kicked back and relaxed!!
The issue for a lot of people is health insurance. Individual policies in most states are incredibly expensive or impossible to get. In Massachusetts where access to health insurance is guaranteed but not subsidized over certain income levels, it costs us approximately $1050/month per person. BTW that's not a complaint - I'm grateful for guaranteed access to really good plans.
Over $12K per year per person just for *insurance*? Surely you'd be better off just putting the money in a savings account and paying for your healthcare in full, as and when you need to.
Or does Obama not allow you to do that any more?
I have to say, I'm quite grateful for the UK's NHS - deeply flawed though it is.
I work in the afternoon, I tutor children, I take care of my baby, I hub, I cook for myself and friends, and on Sunday I watch football and church time, My hands are full too.

What, if any, role should the government play in determining individuals' adoption of health insurance? If you think everyone should be required to have some form of health insurance, why? If you don't think it's necessary, why not? Consider the effects of pre-existing conditions, monopolies on...

I simply do not understand why people are fighting health care reform. I have heard the arguments against it and I keep saying how is that worse than being held hostage by the insurance companies? My insurance cost keeps going and in turn I get less and less coverage. They say the govt run...

I hear every day about how Obama is not telling the truth about health care reform. I would like to be educated about the subject. What is he saying that just get under your skin about health care reform. And if it get under your skin, how would he need to change to have you to...
