Health care forum features spirited discussion
YOUNGSTOWN — The comments ranged from “health care is a right, not a privilege” to the questioning of the federal government’s constitutional authority to overhaul the health care system.
WFMJ Channel 21 and The Vindicator sponsored a live 90-minute health-care forum today from the Jewish Community Center at 505 Gypsy Lane. The forum featured U.S. Rep. Tim Ryan of Niles, D-17th, answering questions from citizens about health care.
There were about 60 to 70 members of the public at the forum.
Ryan said he’s 90 percent sure that Congress will approve significant changes to health care later this year.
There are those concerned that changes are taking too long and others feel “it’s being jammed down their throat,” Ryan said.
For the complete story, read Tuesday’s Vindicator or Vindy.com

some people need to be jammed congressman...do the right thing and support a public option or lose support and your job
He got a lot of "Softball" questions thrown at him! Should have been a "Real Town Hall Meeting"! Looked almost staged! Way to GO Ryan!
When TIMMY said "Trickledown got us into this problem",I knew that he was drinking the Kool-Aid! He is either "Too Stupid", "Doesn't Know" or mostly, has to follow in the footsteps of Pelosi & Dems and has to carry the water! The Vindy & WFMJ has to be ashamed of calling this a Health Care Forum.
