I don't know much about this health care jazz but you mentioned a couple things that tick me off. ..."dump the cost on the government"... You talk like they're some kind of benevolent entity that wipes our noses for us. Those S.O.B.s don't have any money unless they take it from us first. The comment on GM lacks an important point: Their yearly pension payments were in the Billions. In the fifties, GM was as big or bigger than International Harvester, and you just can't pay people who don't work there anymore these huge salaries, and stay in business very long. And stop being such a moderate. Don't say "talk show hosts" when you really mean Rush Limbaugh. Here's another one for you. Sean, Sarah, guns, oil, babies, Freedom,Tea Party, Constitution, Hillsdale College, Heritage Foundation... What have you got against "the medical industry gone wild"? What's wrong with medical technology that reduces hospital stays from one week to a day, or an operation you close with a band-aid? Somebody has to pay, sure, but the benefit outweighs the cost, and the cost will go down if we get government out of it. I don't think all the insurance companies get together and just set an arbitrary high rate.They are, after all, private businesses. I was shopping for a drum of 15W-40 today and the prices ranged from $496 to $681. I'm sure all these guys didn't just get together and set this price range. They have to buy it from their supplier and mark it up for the desired profit margin. Insurance rates are high because doctor rates are high and doctor rates are high because of the high risk of malpractice suits (whether deserved or not) and the insurance will be high to cover the doctor. This is not the entire answer but it is certainly part of it. I believe the private sector, if left alone, will be the saving grace of this country. Fritz.

Today's Featured Article - The Rescue of a Fordson F - by Anthony West. Introduction I live in the UK and have for many years restored Fordson tractors (in the main model N's). I have also restored and shown model F's, E 27N's, Field Marshall Series 2, David Brown Cropmasters and the old rey Fergeson T 20. At one time I had seven restored examples which were shown and used in ploughing matches. As most restorers, I have a number of war stories I can relate on a range of topics that may help other like minded and interested people. Perhaps my first p
