Re: Affordable Care Act

Good Morning Warriors! As I read the responses and concerns in this thread, it takes me back to so many times I felt uncomfortable with what was being said by some of our greatest warriors (now angels). They were fighting for their lives and felt strongly...very strongly about whatever. I didn't like everything people said....some made me mad or sad....but I loved the person who was saying it. I know we need to be a bit more careful in who we "fire" at with our words, but we also must feel safe to "unload" feelings and fears. This is a mean, dirty fight for so many and they need a place to come that is safe. Love and Happy New Year and success in battles to everyone......
