Will We Show Ourselves to Be A Nation With Courage or One of Petty Selfishness?

Most everyone's argument against healthcare reform is that they have never had a problem accessing healthcare, or that they or someone they know accessed healthcare through charity. In essence, they are saying,  "I have it, some other people I know have it, so I could care less if millions of others, regardless of the reasons, do not have it."

Why is that mode of thinking the American way? This isn't about who has a two-ton pick-up truck or a vacation to the Caribbean. It's about access to basic healthcare and creating a rational way of paying for it. If that's un-American, then it's un-American to go to war for this country.
