The present healthcare plan in Congress being debated doesn't even mention dental care for the uninsured, a major flaw. Interesting this hasn't been discussed or debated.

This is an excellent column. Can we have one now comparing the French and British system to the German? How about the Swedes? What is there system like?

This column makes a good point. Unversal healthcare can be delivered in a variety of ways--through either the public or private sectors.

I would recommend the school not allow the gang members to return to the Sequoia. The school administration should have a zero tolerance policy for gang membership. The school has just recently been able to convince San Carlos families that Sequoia is a safe place for their children. With those words of confidence, more children from San Carlos are being sent there but if the gang problems continue that trend will end.

What a wonderful, heartwarming story. Happy Birthday to Mrs. Fong.
