How easy it is for the state to be charitable with other people's money and to tell a business how it must be run.  There's no nobility at helping some while dispossessing others.  There are charities, good people in communities and church that are willing to help voluntarily.  It's done all the time.

 Just keep spending our money!

 

 At least my rep Farrington didn't fall for the sympathy plea and agree to spend my money, good job!

 

this old michigan farmer agrees with the passing of this bill....but wonder about the reason for my state representives voting no....senator rick jones and representive Michael Shirkey...

I think that this mandate is really good. There are more and more children and people with autism and mental health problems and we, the normal ones should take care of them. I was very glad when they put insurance on colon cleanse weight loss programs because obesity is a cause of mortality and i think that this is a very good step forward. I would totally vote for it.

I think that these two diseases are very special and they need a special insurance. I think that people who are suffering from this should be able to buy dianabol and not pay the full price because they will need it almost all their life. I hope that this senate bill will pass and measures will be taken soon.

Some states require insurers to provide coverage for the treatment of autism, good thing they don't require this for colonic hydrotherapy. According to the Council for Affordable Health Insurance,The number of states that require health insurance coverage for autism continues to grow.
