President Obama Signs Health Care Bill

"Our children and our grandchildren, they're gonna grow up knowing that a man named Barack Obama put the final girder and the framework for a for a social network in this country, to provide the single most important element of what people need. And that is access to good health... (whispered into Obama's ear) This is a big fucking deal" - Vice President Joe Bidin (CBS news special report on 3/23)

Today is a day of questioning. For most it's the question of "what happens next?" In a CBS poll, results showed the 54% of American were confused about what the bill really means for us. As we stand today, many are in fear of what socialized health care will do to our nation and on the flip side, many are in praise of it. Only time will tell. That is all we can do, just sit and wait. I'm writing this so that years from now, I can look back and see if our fears or our joy will be correct. We've all heard the stories, good and bad, about socialized health care in other countries. Again I say, time will tell.
