It would be nice if the schools were funded properly and teachers paid fairly so every child could get a wonderful education. If children from poor families take more public money to subsidize their education from the basic level, so be it. They will become better, more productive citizens if they are better educated. That seems like a great investment to me. As the mother of a child who received a liver transplant, I have watched my son live a happy, healthy and active life despite his liver disease.
Treatment is available for most liver diseases.
Everyone should be encouraged to seek treatment, regardless of the type and cause of the disease. The headline is reminiscent of the hysteria about AIDS during the early years. Unfortunately, it usually prevents many from seeking treatment. I cannot recall a meaningful declaration between the president and the secretary of state relating to a foreign policy matter of any significant nature since Clinton took office. Enter Chelsea Clinton, the president's daughter, who actively participated in the Camp David Mideast peace negotiations between Prime Minister Ehud Barak and Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat.
