Economic Crisis is Everywhere

If you think there is hunger in your country, the US is no exemption. The US economy is in crisis and it is a common knowledge that right here, there are people who need help too. There are people who are applying for food stamps and when big companies are giving out free turkey for Thanksgiving or Christmas, you will be amazed of the long lines of people happy to have the free stuffs. These people lost their jobs and struggling to make ends meet. There are families who lost their homes and all they have are each other living in a compact car. It is a wakeup call that since they rely on food stamps, of course they cannot afford to have a medical plan.

I heard about Ameriplan which is a discount medical and dental plan and an alternative to insurance. If you do not have a family insurance, check it out and maybe you and your family can avail a discount dental plan at reasonable price. There was news a while ago that a dental clinic for the needy was jam packed with people who cannot afford to visit a doctor. It was a blessing in disguise and they are doing what they can to assist everyone. They lack volunteers though because serving the people for free is hard work and needs patience and perseverance. Do not despair because economic crisis is not only in your country. It is all over the world and all we need is extend a helping hand to make this world a better place to live. Start with your neighbor.
