		<description><![CDATA[Standing in line at the bank I watched battle-weary congresspeople on TV argue for what&#8217;s right and decent for an American national health care system. And the opposition argued point for point with ludicrous accusations that amounted to protecting their own interests. That this debate even exists is ridiculous. A government for the people?
