        This ASCII-file version of ShareDebate International
        was packaged by Applied Foresight, Inc. (AFI
        hereafter). Every AFI-packaged ASCII version of
        ShareDebate International is distributed in either an
        "-AV protected" ZIP file format or a SDN (Shareware
        Distributors Network) protected SDN file.
        
        "AV" is the authenticity verification feature provided
        to registered PKZIP users, which Applied Foresight,
        Inc., is.  If you are using the MS-DOS PKUNZIP.EXE
        program written by PKWARE Inc. and do not see the "-AV"
        message after every file is unzipped AND receive the
        message "Authentic files Verified! #JAA646 Applied
        Foresight Inc." when you unzip this file then do not
        trust it's integrity. If your version of PKUNZIP is not
        the PKWARE-authored program (for instance, you are
        running a non-MS-DOS version), then this message may
        not be displayed. (Note: version 2.04g of PKZIP was
        used to create this authentication message.)
        
        SDN is the major distributor of Shareware and
        Copyrighted Freeware and users who extract files from
        an SDN file with the current version of the archive
        utility ARJ, should see:
        
               *** Valid ARJ-SECURITY envelope signature:
               *** SDN International(sm) SDN#01 R#2417
        
        This file is an SDN International(sm) Author-Direct
        Distribution. It should be verified for the SDN
        Security Seal by the FileTest utility available at The
        SDN Project AuthorLine BBS 203-634-0370.
        
        (Note: prior to about May, 1993, SDN used PAK to
        archive its distributions and its authenticity message
        differs from the above.)
        
        Trust only genuine AFI-packaged archives ...  anything
        else may be just that: ANYTHING ELSE.

                        From the Editor's Desk:
        
             Hello again!  I had originally planned to focus on
        the actual legislation of the Clinton Health Act this
        issue, however as seen in the supplement to issue 12
        (dbate013), which contains the full non-graphic text of
        the Act, it is very long.  I still have not finished
        reading this horrendous legislation.  Yes, I know this
        is the second time I've started out this column with
        this excuse.  Anyway, the consensus of the press seems
        to be that the original horrible bill has long ago died
        but we'll probably be forced to accept a horrible
        second-place alternative this year or next.
        
            If only the American people would rise up and tell
        Washington D.C. to get out of our face and to let the
        individual 50 states work individually on their
        problems -- that way competition would thrive in the
        political marketplace and individual states could learn
        from others as which approach works best---I favor a
        laissez faire approach myself with firm support on both
        the consumer and provider side regarding each side's
        private contract rights.  In other words, let
        transactions be voluntary but protect those who have
        had their privately obtained contractual rights
        violated.  But no, we're being forced by the
        propaganda-fed voting plurality (who voted in Clinton)
        to put all of our eggs in the federal basket.  I hope
        the WhiteWater scandal diverts Congress enough to
        postpone Health Care reform until after 1996 when I
        hope pro-marketplace (not liberal) Republicans regain
        at least the White House if not the Congress.  However,
        I'm not going to hold my breath.
        
             By the way, Dr. Stephen D. Leonard, M.D.,
        F.A.C.S., provides a very interesting analysis of the
        health care crisis in this issue.
        
             This will be a very short intro column this issue;
        the magazine entries are interesting enough to stand by
        themselves.  I've included some great Libernet postings
        from the Internet -- don't think that I agree
        wholeheartedly with each article, but they're
        definitely interesting enough that we should widely
        know about them.  They sure beat much of what the
        popular media feeds you!
        
             Two well known authors have joined in providing
        very interesting reprints with this issue -- William
        Tucker and Steven Schlossstein.  See the editor's
        introduction at the start of each of these author's
        contribution for more about them.
        
             Dan Druck, of the Council on Domestic Relations
        (CDR), has provided ShareDebate International with
        complete information on the Colorado Sovereignty
        Resolution which has passed the Colorado House 51-13
        and is scheduled for a vote in the Colorado Senate,
        April 18. The resolution has been introduced in
        California by Senator Rogers with 21 Co-Sponsors (out
        of 40) in the Senate and 41 Co-Sponsors (out of 80) in
        the Assembly.
        
            The CDR has resolution teams forming in more than
        28 states.  CDR has shifted about 75% of their efforts
        toward this resolution.  They hope to have resolution
        teams in all 50 states by May 15.  Please contact Dan
        Druck if you wish to help.  It's time to stop talking
        about fixing the problem and start fixing it!  CDR's
        address (mail, email, fax, phone) is given at the end
        of the file, SOVERNTY.TXT.
        
             I know you'll like this issue!

                           MAGAZINE CONTENTS
        
            Because this issue is quite long, the individual
        entries are not all collapsed into this file.  That way
        readers on non-MSDOS computers who don't have an ASCII
        file reader that can read in massively large files can
        read this issue -- all files are under 50KB apiece.
        Also all readers can quickly "jump" to the pieces that
        most interest them.  This makes printing out what
        interests a person most convenient and avoids wasting
        paper and time.  I hope you like this arrangement.
