	PhpWiki - Medical Social Divide (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Until the government accepts these medical problems as social problems and funds them, not on the basis of a return on an investment, but on the basis of a moral national ethos it won't happen and it won't happen as long as everything is based on some economic cost analysis, instead of human needs.
		Missouri recently ended coverage for 36,000 low-income working parents, including a reduction in the income limit for working parents from 100 percent of the poverty line to 77 percent (from $15,020 to $11,565 for a family of three).
		The Democratic Party is incapable of addressing the real social polarization in the United States -- that between the wealthy elite and everyone else -- because it stands on the same side of that social divide as the Republican Party.

	AllRefer.com - gay-rights movement (Social Reform) - Encyclopedia
		While there was some organized activity on behalf of the rights of homosexuals in the first half of the 20th cent., the modern gay-rights movement in the United States is usually said to have begun with the Stonewall riot (June, 1969) in New York City, which resulted from a police raid on a gay bar.
