The meeting is open to all; public participation is encouraged.
Questions raised by the health care debate have included: Is the United States headed toward the end of Medicare? Should those in need of reasonably priced drugs be barred from purchasing them in Canada, for instance? Why is the United States the only country in the world without universal health care coverage for the elderly and the poor? Will the Social Security program fall into privitization?
