“They’re having problems with rural administration. Those people will be affected more than in the cities if this current plan goes into effect. They should do it on all three levels. I wish I had a ‘no’ vote, just to say no to the plan they’re deciding now.”

“Get it out of the federal government’s hands. I just had a lien put on my house for a $6,000 medical bill. It’s one of the reasons I had to sell my house. I was a nurse for 15 years, and I think we all should have health care. Subsidize the working poor.”

Missy Maynard, Moab
