"R.A. Shipman always has interesting answers and comments - on all issues. Being in the insurance business, he can surely expose what is presented to the US taxpayer as a "health care plan" - has very little to do with "health care" - but more toward BIGGER GOVERMENT and intrusions into our personal lives. We depend on R.A. Shipman for his wisdom."
