Have a Good Read: Swine Not


This is one of the most pleasant reads I have had in sometime.

Things like pigs in dog costumes, mad chefs, soccer fans and the milieux of New York make this volume a good time.

Have a Good Read: Sweepers


First book by this North Carolina author and Navy vet that I have read.


In the thriller genre. A pretty intriguing villan with maybe a few too many side stories. My interest in the book and its quality was up and down.

Overall about a 6/10. Good enough though that I will try by this author.

2 sets of Observations

1. Some opponents of health care worry that reform and change of the system will increase the deficit.

2. Some worry about 'death panels', end of life counseling.

3. They further worry about rationing of care.

4. There absolutist view that everyone should get all health care at any cost despite their wishes sure runs smack up against being worried about spening.
------------------

A. People go to health care town halls and shout, scream, disrupt and carry on.

B. They are compared to war protestors.

C. War protestors want to stop war and end killing. Do those protesting health care reform achieve the same or do they cost lives?
