Guest Speaker State Senate Allen Kukovich

He talked a lot about the state of PA.  Ok, yeah were in PA, but I think, in my opinion, being from another state, I would have found this to be a lot more interesting if he didnt focus solely on Pennsylvania.  He made it seem....almost like he is sexist or racist to the other states.  I know that sounds funny, but thats the best I can explain it.

It was a good speech.  He did well on explaining why it is important to vote.  I think if I wasnt registered to vote, his speech might have, would probably have convinced me to register.

He brought up a few issues that need to be focused on.  A few being health care, education and recources, things like that, of importance.  He mentioned that many people, around 80% of people were supplied health care by their employers.  No, only 60% of people receive health care from their employers.  He pointed out that "we are becoming an unhealthy nation."

A quote I got from him which I really liked was "Vote with your eyes wide open."  This quote seemed to have a lot more than just one meaning. It really stuck out and I really liked it. It makes you think!
