President Barack Obama Watch a short video of President Obama introducing his budget. With this budget, President Obama is asking Washington to look beyond the next election and take the long-term steps that he says will ensure America's future strength and prosperity. It will involve sacrifices and difficult decisions. But it will also boldly invest in the three areas most critical to our economic future: energy, health care, and education. The President proposes that: Confronting the mounting cost of health care will put America back on a solid foundation so businesses can thrive and families can prosper. Reforming and strengthening our education system will ensure American innovation and competitiveness well into the next century.

Susannah Pitman MS, CA Acupuncturist Americans spent $33.9 billion out-of-pocket on complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) over 12 months, according to a 2007 government survey. CAM is a group of diverse medical and health care systems, practices, and products such as herbal supplements, meditation, chiropractic, and acupuncture that are not generally considered to be part of conventional medicine. CAM accounts for approximately 1.5 percent of total health care expenditures ($2.2 trillion) and 11.2 percent of total out-of-pocket expenditures (conventional out-of-pocket: $286.6 billion and CAM out-of-pocket: $33.9 billion) on health care in the United States. Susannah states, "The government is putting a tremendous amount of energy into shifting our current health care system in order to make it more affordable and accessible for people. This shift may cause a large ripple effect throughout the health care system, making it necessary for all aspects of health care to change with the movement in order to continue practicing successfully."
