Obama Vetos Student Loan Planhttp://www.cnn.com/2012/04/27/politics/house-student-loans/index.html

I believe that Obama has really great intentions for Woman regarding the issues of breast cancer and trying to get more funds for the health care program. But, i greatly disagree with the statement since it would be cutting down the funds for college students loans. Loans are already expensive as they are and they should be reduced or minimized. According to Obama this plan wouldn't really effect the students who are attending college and are receiving these loans since the loan rates and prices would remain the same. Even though they aren't raising up higher they aren't lowering down neither making this a problem that nothing is being done to help students who may need loans in school and the prices for them are too high. Obama states that people themselves wanted to get more funds for woman with breast and cervical cancer which in fact is a false statement according to" Boehner said Obama proposed budget called for reducing the same health care fund, which he labeled a "slush fund."
"You may have already forgotten that several months ago, you all voted to cut $4 billion out of this slush fund to pay for the payroll credit bill" that extended a payroll tax cut, Boehner continued, shouting, "So, to accuse us of wanting to gut women's health is absolutely not true."
Many people may say that this is a great thing that Obama is trying to do for woman but, you also have to put into consideration that a lot of money is being put into this problem and all other problems are being ignored all together thinking that by solving one problem all problems will be solved.
According to Pelosi he said that "House Republicans were forced by Obama publicizing of the issue to reverse their previous opposition to keeping the interest rates on federal student loans at the current 3.4% instead of letting them double to 6.8% on July 1." This is a very unfair rate for loans they are definitely not steady in any way and are in fact just a way to take advantage of all the students who attend college and may have student loans.

Health care for everyone!http://duyvuworldwidenews.blogspot.com/
According to the blog we are supposed to accept and allow health care for everybody. I believe that Health Care should be an option that people should decide on what health care they should get and whether they should even get it or not. Many families don't always have enought money to pay for a Health Care so the money they would use for paying for health care they use to pay rent and to feed their families. If everybody would use heallth care it would be rather expensive and it would definetaly not be in some peoples budgets to pay for it. Many people do get sick very often but then again theres those people who the health care program would benifiet the least since they don't really get sick all that much often and only get sick with simple things such as a flu or a cold. Most of the people who want the Health Care program to take place are people who already have a present illnes and they want their medications to become much cheaper which is what the Health Care program would help with since its costly but, it dosent cost as much as they would be paying for if they didn't have it and they would have to pay their medications and treatments with.
