Time For A Real Tea Party!

Well, THIS TIME the Democrats were successful and finally forced through their agenda on our dime. Many others in the past have tried, unsucessfully, but they weren't trying to destroy all our freedoms with the stroke of a pen, either. Many people in America don't see it just yet, but this is only the very beginning of the era of "Government Control". Soon the Deomcratic ruling party will announce all American business owners MUST give up their payroll information so it can be scrutinized and questioned under a microscope. The purpose? To make sure someone's not getting paid more than someone else, supposedly based on either sex or ethnicity. Lord knows, I thought groups were already in place to handle that upon registering a complaint.

Apparently the Democrats must have decided it needed more government control.

So everyone's in favor of this health care reform (now tagged HRC). Do they realize this completely discredits whatever health insurance they may already have? Do they realize the government will force us to switch to their "plan" and will fine us if we don't? Do they realize the government plan is no different than the plan in Canada, and these people come down here for health care because their government makes them wait anywhere from six months to a year to get the care, provided the government deems it is necessary?

Please! Someone STOP the INSANITY!

Up until tonight, America was a democracy. With the stroke of a pen, we are now traveling down the road toward socialism, with the rich making all the rules. Us poor folk? We get to work our butts off for the next 100 years paying for it, starting tomorrow, as will our children and our children's children and our children's children's children.

Apparently these "professional politicians" have completely forgotten exactly how they came to sit in those fancy chairs. Apparently they have forgotten exactly who IS in charge, who their boss truly is. And once the American people wake up and realize that change is within their control, these politician's days will finally be numbered.

I don't have health care at this point in my freelance career because I CHOOSE not to have it just yet. It's not that I don't realize how important it is; it's because I can't yet afford it. However, do you see me crying to my neighbors that I deserve it, I'm entitled to it, and they should pay for me to have it? Gee, the equivalent of that scenario would be for my business to fail, and I go to these same neighbors and tell them, "My business is failing and I need a bailout, and you're going to give it to me." They'd look at me as if I 'd lost my mind, and they would be correct to do so.

No one is ENTITLED to ANYTHING other than to live, die and pay taxes; the rest is up to us. Nobody is ENTITLED to health care as a right - it is a choice! If we can't afford to pay for it, we choose not to have it. Some would say that's not a choice, and that's not true. If someone truly wanted it badly enough, they could take on another job to pay for it. There are also agencies (set up by the government, wow, maybe they'll have to go away now) that help people in situations such as these. This is no different than someone realizing they really have to have car insurance but can't afford it so they choose not to buy it and pray they don't get in an accident. The biggest difference is, in many states, it's the law to have car insurance. Up until tonight, such a law didn't exist for health care.

If it isn't working so well in Canada, what makes these politicians think it can work here?? The answer is pretty clear: They get kickbacks for voting this in, and truly , it doesn't matter to them - they're exempt!

This decade is truly the time for change, and it must start with government. People of America, we elected these fools to represent us - it's time to tell them they're fired!

Society or Socialism?

 SOCIETY: a : a part of a community that is a unit distinguishable by particular aims or standards of living or conduct : a social circle or a group of social circles having a clearly marked identity b : a part of the community that sets itself apart as a leisure class and that regards itself as the arbiter of fashion and manners

(thank you, Merriam-Webster.com)


SOCIALISM: 

1. a theory or system of social organization that advocates the vesting of the ownership and control of the means of production and distribution, of capital, land, etc., in the community as a whole.

2. procedure or practice in accordance with this theory.

3. (in Marxist theory) the stage following capitalism in the transition of a society to communism, characterized by the imperfect implementation of collectivist principles.
(thank you, Dictionary.com)

So, is the United States of America a society, or growing toward the trend of socialism? You decide, while you still can; just don't get strong-armed by the government or any special interest groups whose only vested interest in you is that you totally, completely and unquestionably agree with everything they tell you. Period.

You be the judge.

Sold Out By Stupak

For all of you from Michigan that voted for Stupak, you should e-mail him and congratulate him for selling out to the Democrats and voting FOR this hideous Health Care Reform (HRC). With his vote they have enough votes to pass this assinine bill into a law - on the "promise" of the President he will sign an executive order NOT to federally fund the abortion part of this laughable bill. Good lord, man! You just gave away your leverage! What else did this President promise you: that you would remain in office? That you wouldn't be investigated? The President has no reason now to even sign such an order! 

Mr. Stupak: You, sir, are out of order and should effective resign your post - immediately. (IMHO)

Health Care Reform or Health Scare Tactics?

These "representatives" that are attempting to pass this health care reform (a.k.a. HRC) without even listening or attempting to listen to their constituents (the people that actually voted them in, their real BOSS), should be removed without opposition! No real wonder the House "isn't in order" - without listening to the people who voted them in and truly being their representative, there will never be any order! And the fact that they "intend to pass this bill no matter what", is very scary. 

Since WHEN do we have to be talked to like government is our Father??? Thank you very much, I have parents, and up until I became an adult they told me what to do - government should NOT have that kind of influence over its people!

First, the WH should be as far removed from this discussion as possible! Yet, in the heat of the House discussions, they struck a deal with Mr. Bart Stupak on the abortion issues dealing with the HRC. The WH shouldn't be involved in such a deal, let alone making this happen before the thing has gone to vote! How will we, the people, ever know it truly has come to pass and been included in this bill? On the promise of an signed executive order, no less! There goes the leverage! Good hell, how stoopid do they think the American public truly is??

Second, the HRC is going to add MORE money to our already large deficit but the govt. is promising to balance the budget! How in the world do they expect to balance anything that is increasing with the passing of this atrocious bill?! Not to mention the amount of people that will be put out of work from the passing of this so-called bill into law. How can they possibly know what is in the people's (not sheeple's) best interest? This bill doesn't affect any one single person of Congress! So why should they care how it affects us, the little people? They're well-taken care of, they're exempt! Now, if they truly were as affected as we are, then there'd be a difference! The process would be taking longer because there's a personal stake. Without out that, as a former colleague of mine used to say (and probably still does), "the love is gone."

Lastly, they are so PROUD of this bill they were going to by-pass all channels of proper voting in favor of passing it as quickly and quietly as possible - to the inclusion of adding 3,000+/- pages of "earmarks" at 3am! If they're so confident the bill should pass anyway, why sneak around and by-pass proper channels? Why strong-arm people into voting their way? Why have groups back them and then parade in the House how personal a cause this is to them, yet in no way, shape or form even begin to listen how badly written this bill is??

I am for a reform, don't get me wrong. The public knows there's tons wrong with the current system. But THIS BILL SHOULD NOT BE PASSED! If nothing else, the people are entitled to view ALL documents, earmarks, and anything else related to this rope and decide on the whole package before it hangs them! If nothing else, as our "true representatives" they should stop this process completely and start from scratch before they do something they will regret later on, something we and our children, and our children's children will have to pay for down the road.

By the way, did anyone know or remember that there's a clause in this bill? The clause states (paraphrasing here, sorry) that NO ONE will ever be able to repeal this bill/law - EVER. Why in the world would anyone try to by-pass the Constitution in such a manner? Sounds like a scare tactic to me. What's next - making sure the current govt. and President stay in power forever? Don't laugh, just watch - vigilantly.
