My Father once told me "never discuss religion or politics" as you will always end up in a fight.
I am aware of and wary of changes to our healthcare system, but this is not the forum to discuss these issues. I suggest that if you wish to talk about these matters go to one of the thousands of political blogs and message boards on the internet or save it for Facebook.
The following is a copy of our mission statement an goals:
