Forward or same?

By Michael Schaffer - Managing editor Daily Iowegian

CENTERVILLE — The Daily Iowegian will publish an Editorial Question of the Week on the Opinion page.

The Iowegian wants readers to think about Tuesday's election.

Will the politicians elected Tuesday take our country forward? Or is the United States locked into four years of the same?

So, the question this week is, "Will the country move forward or will the country stay the same?"

Go to the Daily Iowegian website, www.dailyiowegian.com, and scroll down the home page to POLL on the right hand side and cast your vote. Or call the Iowegian office at (641) 856-6336 or email the editor at iowegianeditor@mchsi.com to cast a vote.

Vote on the Question of the Week up until Wednesday, Nov. 14 at 12 p.m. The results will be published in the Thursday, Nov. 15 paper along with a new question.

Here are the results from the last poll question: "Who do you believe will be the next U.S. president: Barack Obama or Mitt Romney?"

A. Barack Obama received 127 votes.

B. Mitt Romney received 125 votes.

The Iowegian wants readers to think about the debate Rep. Larry Sheets talks about at the state capital centered on "accepting Medicaid expansion as defined by the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare), or choosing to create an Iowa specific health care program. Those who prefer the Medicaid expansion believe the federal government will fulfill its commitments three years from now. Those opposing explain that the federal government is only capable of that by borrowing the money from the Chinese." So, the question this week is, "Should Iowa accept the federal government's Medicaid expansion or create a health care program specific to the state?"

A. Accept Medicaid expansion.
B. Create health care program.
