They Just Don't Want To Pay For It
A new poll from CBS news shows that a large majority (73%) of Americans support the government spending more money to provide
dental care for children, but only 51% of those surveyed said they support more spending if it means higher taxes for themselves.The poll also showed that American parents are increasingly putting off much needed dental care as 13% of those polled said they have delayed taking their children to the dentist in the past 6 months.
Communities are struggling to decide how to provide for underserved populations. Louisiana recently had a heated debate in the state legislature about providing mobile dental clinics to schools with children unable to afford dental care.
