What is Tolerance

Tolerance is when people try to be open minded about certain things. In a article I read explained how a girl tried to bring her girlfriend to her prom wearing a tux. The school did not allow the girl bring her girlfriend to her prom.

Five ways to promote tolerance in the school and community

* Talk about stopping bullying

* Have a class about showing respect

* Identify examples o respect to certain people

* Make a quilt and take fabrics from different peoples cultures.

Health Care

I think the government is waiting too long, and I do not understand why a person has to wait forever. It is making it harder for people because times are hard. I believe they should stop waiting forever and give the people what they want free health care.
