The Republican agenda is very simple : Protecting their pals in Big Pharma and Big Insurance at all costs, even if it is at the cost of our children's future. What we parents need is the ability to pay for the services we have already researched and require to help our children. We don't have the luxury of time. This is not about letting the market drive supply and demand of good and services. We're talking about our children's lives! Congress needs to stop stonewalling and actually DO something!
