For the long-term economic health of our country, the public option will jettison costs from employers and from us as taxpayers, who pay
the hidden costs of uninsured and underinsured Americans' health care now as it is. You don't cure a headache by beating your head against
a wall, but that's what we've been doing -- and it's getting worse. Glenn Beck can scream all he wants about how leaders of other countries
come to the U.S. for our excellent care, but he doesn't talk about how some desperate middle class Americans take enormous risks going to
other countries to get health care, under whatever standards of care may prevail there, because they cannot get it here.

We are the United States of America. We are still, to so many here and abroad, that "shining city on the hill." We must step forward, recognize
that the free market, by itself, as applied to health care doesn't make us free, but rather imprisons us in a vicious cycle of suffering, inequality,
disparity and grief. The public option is the first step to stem the flood of loss and resulting damage.
