POPSBush Health Plan: Who Benefits? This plan may be great for people who already can afford health insurance, but it will not level the playing field for those who are currently having difficulties getting affordable health benefits. Regular premium costs is what keeps many from buying into insurance, increased deductibles will keep them from buying into the Bush plan. It's about the money. On the list of priorities in life, health benefits fall at the bottom. When I was a single mom and actually had a job that offered health benefits (10 years ago), I had to pass because my paycheck barely covered my life expenses, I couldn't afford for my boss to take another $150/mo out of my check for the so-called benefit. I don't imagine that many families, today, can afford that benefit, even with a future tax deduction attached. So millions of Americans will continue to live without health insurance and will risk paying way more when there is an emergency.

POPSIs Soy Really Good For You? Please read the entire article for context on my comments. The way I see it, too much of anything is not good for you, even if it is otherwise healthy. Just like even those things that some would consider bad are not all that bad, when taken in moderation. It seems that there is nothing that you can eat that is COMPLETELY healthy or will ABSOLUTELY kill you whether you are a vegan or a couch potato. Healthy foods have been shown to have bad side-effects for some people while some "bad" foods never seen to harm other folks who enjoy them to excess. We do not live in a one-size fits all world, so we should stop acting like "your" health kick is suitable for the entire world...it's not. So please leave me alone to enjoy my T-bone and beer. I'll leave you alone to enjoy your Tofurkey this Christmas.
