  9. Who are the Uninsured?

    WyomingRN replied to kitkat24's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Like it or not, you can have socialism - or you can have liberty - but you can't have both. As far as I am concerned, you either support and defend the Constitution (an American) - or you don't...

    WyomingRN replied to -jt's topic in Activism, Healthcare

  22. overtime law

    WyomingRN replied to -jt's topic in General Nursing
