I am responding to Laura'a

I am responding to Laura'a question on today's program regarding Monday's topic of the right to health care. I believe that if we subscribe to the words of The Declaration of Independence which says that we are all created equal and have certain unalienable rights which include the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, that indeed we all have the right to health care. As a health care provider, I see very often the disparity between the underserved and the served in or community.
