Question of the Week - Finances

As we examine the viability of health care reform any option considered would need to cut costs.  In this economy, each one of us has undoubtedly had to curb his or her spending as well.  My question to you is: how do you think we can achieve Obama's goal?  What measures have you taken in your own life to buckle down?  I'm sure none of us has a bottomless pocketbook we can keep pulling money from.  Some of us live on SSD checks.  What would you tell Obama?  What would you tell community members about how we can stretch a dollar too?
