The question in today’s video is whether or not the Tenth Amendment is important in the Health Care debate,

This series was taped at the competing health care reform rallies in Shawnee, KS on Nov 7, 2009.  The Kansas Watchdog invited two people from each side to share their views on four questions related to health care reform. 

Here is the list of the videos in this series:

• Monday: What’s good or bad about the “public option”?
• Tuesday: How should health care reform be paid for?
• Wednesday: What if government wants more, e.g., taxes, for health care?
• Thursday: Is the 10th Amendment important?

Participants included:

• Skye Coleman, Merriam. Forward Kansas writer.
