So today....(face six)

I,

went for a drive with my father and best friend and his dad,

to see a lady about buying a used car, which I put down a payment on,

and the lady was nice enough to let me take a picture of her reaction to the health care reform bill passing for my "faces of health care reform" series.

thank you kindly nice lady for your car and your picture.
I hope both things worked out nicely for you ^_^

It was very nice to have met you Jonathan. I sure hope it all works out when you get your new wheels!
My thoughts on the Health care reform...I believe that the Health care system is broken but I do not believe the government should be in countrol of that. I think the current health care system needs to be fixed and that the insurance companies need to be regulated in some way. I also don't agree the government should be exempt on using their health care system that they passed but we as taxpayers will be forced to. I beleive everyone needs health care insurance but it is impossible for the average american to pay the premiums. I really don't know what the best answer to this big debate is. I just wished that they let the Americans vote on such an important issue.
I wish you all the luck in persuing your photography. You are very talented!

^_^ It was nice to meet you too Lisa.
The health care debate is a nuanced and complicated issue. Unfortunately most of the people reporting on it are coloring it severely with their bias and over simplifying to the point of downright lies. I thought of the "Faces" series the night the bill passed, as a sort of way to be honest about the issue without bias. I take any picture of reactions to the bill I am allowed. The people have their opinions and I think the pictures capture a certain amount of that. It all them, and I don't have to pit my own opinion against theirs. I don't have to agree with or understand their reaction, just record it. I think that the series is turning out pretty good so far.
how about you? ^_^
