>> Columbian Supports ObamaCare
In a frank and well-worded editorial on Friday Nov 04, 2016, The Columbian, our very important locally-owned newspaper, supported Obamacare (the Affordable Care Act) as being useful, necessary and a very good first step. In Washington especially, where it was embraced and not fought, the rate hikes remain significantly smaller. As supporters like Hillary have long said, it's a first step on which to build. Future steps can enroll more people and keep costs down. Read the entire editorial at LINK.
>> VOTE. Eugene Robinson discusses, with examples, why it's important to vote. The basis is not have Trump be in office. So the gist is familiar - if you don't vote or even if you vote for a third-party candidate, you are aiding and abetting the unfit, and seriously flawed Donald Trump. Vote for Hillary Clinton.
