		<description><![CDATA[People need money and that is the main reason they go online looking for grants. Now that Obama is President, it almost appears that some people voted for him because they thought they could get free things from him. While the Democrats do have a history of handing out a good portion of our money, it is unreasonable to think that Obama will just give out money. They might have thought that the government would cut everyone a stimulus check similar to what George W. Bush did several years ago.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The United States needs serious health care reform. Anyone who looks at our current system in a serious fashion knows that. Our system is headed towards bankruptcy and doesn't adequately cover a huge portion of the US populace. But some people make a lot of money with the broken system we have now and they are doing everything they can to destroy health care reform. Their main tactic is to spread misinformation in order to scare people. Read on for a listing of seven of their common lies including a refutation of each of them.]]></description>
