    Tony: You are really great. I love your enthusiasm. My family and I were all born in Baltimore, educated there. We raised our kids in Columbia. Our son went to UBMC. Dr. Hrabowski is great! I taught at University of Baltimore for 22 years. Thanks for mentioning Baltimore and speaking so highly of it. Keep up the good work and your wonderful enthusiasm and energy and passion. I really enjoy watching you. I have you on in my office every day. Best wishes

    Seems that the wrong questions are being asked when it comes to credit card fees and interest rates. You see, the credit card companies (aka usury industry) have already raised their rates the usurious levels, and the proposed legislation gives them over a year to hike rates and fees even more. What kind of help is that? Of course, those in the Senate who oppose immediate relief have to pay back their campaign contributors, but aren't these "representatives" supposed to represent the people, not the special interests? Ask the right questions, please!

    Tony, perhaps CNN should send a group of reporters to Saskatchewan, which is the home of Canadian health care.

    Today we pay 5% sales tax. If you are 65+ the cost per script is $15.00 for most generic drugs, however there is a income component to this.

    We have good facilities and services with sometime delays on some services.

    My point is you and the american people are having a hugh debate and being influnced by groups that are providing information that is no fully correct.

    Instead of throwing money at the corporations, match those monies up with those on the unemployment rolls. If a company hires that unemployment person the money will go to paying that persons salary for a year plus health benefits. If the person is fired or let go the funds should revert back to the unemployment system.

    I heard the 10 years payoff plan for nurses student loans, how does that affect nurses already paying student loans. Does that law apply to them as well?
