I don't have a detailed plan in mind myself for health care insurance reform. But I know for sure that we need it.
This invitation, as you'll see if you follow the link, suggests staying home from work and buying nothing and calling Congressmen all day.
I disagree, especially in this economy, with the idea of skipping out on a job and boycotting already-endangered retailers.
I do heartily endorse the idea of a nation-wide call-in insisting on reform that makes sure everybody has good affordable health insurance, with coverage that is pro-health rather than a Catch-22 system where, for example, it's impossible to know whether a procedure is covered until it's done.
