"ObamaCare basically means that every time you are sick or injured, you will have a clerk from the Department of Motor Vehicles telling your doctor what he can and cannot do." - Ben Stein
The following is from a quarterly newsletter that the company I work for receives from our bonding company Neilson & Company, Inc. written by Charles J. Neilson...
The people already know that Mr. (you can tell I didn't write this because I'd never use the word Mr. in front of this jerks name) Obama's plan to lower health care costs while expanding coverage and bureaucracy is a myth, a promise of something that never was and never will be...it is and always has been a myth that a bureaucracy will lower cost in a free society. Either the cost will go up or the free society will go away.
DON'T TAKE MY WORD FOR IT... lets take a look at history:
- The U.S. Post Office was established in 1775. We have had 234 years to get it right and it is broke.
- Social Security was established in 1935. We have had 74 years to get it right and it is broke.
- Fannie May was established in 1938. We have had 71 years to get it right and it is broke, and broke the nation along with it.
- War on Poverty started in 1964. We have had 45 years to get it right; $1 trillion of our money is confiscated each year and transferred to "the poor" and they are still poor and want more.
- Medicare and Medicaid were established in 1965. We have had 44 years to get it right and both programs are broke.
- Freddie Mac was established in 1970. We have had 39 years to get it right and it is broke.
- The Department of Energy was was created in 1977 to lessen our dependence on foreign oil. It has ballooned to 16,000 employees with a budget of $24 billion a year and we import more oil than ever before. We had 32 years to get it right and it has been an abysmal failure.
We are now hearing rhetoric from the White House, Congress and Senate that a 2,000+ page bureaucratic nightmare to take over 1/6th of our economy in the name of health care is going to be something we can pay for? As with every other program that the government runs, the cost to the next generation will be astronomically than the government is now projecting. The truth of it is we can not afford this program and it will bankrupt our country.
Again this may be preaching to the choir... You have Obummer making his $8 billion math mistake yesterday saying "this bill would save $1 trillion in the first decade" (gee that's not what the CBO says) along with his Thug-of-Staff, Rahm Emanuel, railroading congressmen out of office because they wouldn't vote for this P.O.S. bill... (think real hard, you'll figure out what P.O.S. means)
I never thought I'd use this word in one of my posts, but "COLLECTIVELY" we must do everything humanly possible to stop these bastards from destroying Health Care and our country with it...
but HOW DO WE STOP THEM?
ReplyDeleteSuper post, but it just got me MORE anxious and feeling MORE impotent! :-)
Well said BA. I have contacted my Representative Earl Pomeroy. He has been sending out softball email talking points that are off the subject of healthcare. He talks about floods and so on. He knows healthcare could be his waterloo. The people of ND have had enough of this liberal who claims to be a centrist.
ReplyDeleteZ,
ReplyDeleteI see exactly where you're coming from... I posted this at lunch from the office yesterday and didn't read the finished product... Nothing like setting you up for a big let down... We here in S.W. Florida are staging protests at the offices of our representatives and even holding a candle light vigil for the death of Obamacare at several hospitals this evening...
The phones and fax machines are humming... This I do know,if these dirtbag politicians ram this bill through, we will run every last one of them out... It may be a long and hard battle, but we'll turn this ship around...
John,
one word "term limmits"...
That was my ode to Joe Biden's three letter word "jobs"...
These bastards think WE are all stupid. They spew their BS all over the place and think people will believe that it’s true just because they say so.
ReplyDeleteI’m sorry, but I don’t understand. If we were promised total transparency in Congress by Obama, why do we have to vote the health care bill in to find out what’s in it? Could this be yet another lie from Obama, Pelosi and Reid? This is becoming too much to comprehend. I mean I’m still trying to recover from the mental image of a naked Rahm Imanuel pointing his finger at Eric Massa, dressed in only a bath towel, and scolding him for not voting yes on the health care reform package. This whole administration is more than the human psyche can cope with. Now we truly do need change we can believe in, more than ever before, and the sooner we change the current administration for one that is honest and competent the better off we’ll be.
And we are supposed to believe what the lefties imbeciles are tell us about the healthcare bill? Are they that dumb to think we are going to buy a Pig in a poke?
Blinky the clown Pelosi knows exactly what’s in this bill.
If she doesn’t then she is even more stupid than I thought she is.
She is a total embarrassment and disgrace to this country along with her corrupt cronies. As are the Lefties who go along with her and Obama!
You made some excellent points BA. The government just screws everything up and these libtards want government to control our health care now. OH HELL NO!!! This is all about power and control and has nothing to do with fixing our health care issues. Boot these bastages out come next election.
ReplyDeleteThat's a big YES for "term limits".
ReplyDeleteI agree with what Obammy above says, but am very pessimistic that we will ever get an honest an competent administration. I pray that our system is not hopelessly corrupted.
Agree, Time to end Obamacare! Wrecking the American Economy and the USA is not an acceptable option.
