Stimulus money could help HealthNet
Federal stimulus money could be just the medicine that HealthNet needs to serve a growing number of uninsured clients.
The Janesville City Council on Monday will consider how to allocate $145,035 in additional funding that would flow through the Community Development Block Grant program. The Community Development Authority, which advises the council on spending block grant money, has recommended that $125,000 go to HealthNet.
The council meets at 7 p.m. in City Hall, 18 N. Jackson St.
The Community Development Authority has also recommended that $10,000 go to the Janesville Literacy Council to expand job-skill education and that $10,035 be spent to administer the grant.

when did it come about that everyone was ENTITLED to insurance?? I thought you worked and payed for it? That's how it works in our family.We don't think we are owed insurance, we work for it. if you can't afford it, maybe you should go without going to the dr for every little thing or the chiropractor cause you back hurts. the old way of working for what you have has seen better days!
