America: USSA

Where are we to turn as the United States retreats from its roots, and begins to institute a socialistic agenda? Are we a country of and by the people anymore?
Obama and crew would like to create a national health care program in which every person must submit, possible life saving care, to the Federal government. Based on their record of accomplishment, I wouldn’t trust them to watch my dog, clean my pool, or even change the lining in my cockatiel’s cage.
Should we follow the UK’s example, this proposed monopoly of our already fragmented and corrupt health care system will only lead to longer waiting times for treatment, and contemptible care.
Repeatedly, the government and power elites try to categorize the public into subsets similar to cattle. Now, the influence behind our loving government stands ready to draft a health care pyramid with the wealthy residing at the top and the less fortunate corralled at the bottom. We are, after all, subclass humans in the eyes of the privileged.
Those that think that a nice house and a bank account filled with zeros equates to being part of the upper crust need to reassess the real world qualifications of power. The true men of power are ruthless, cunning, and diabolical in their approach. Control is the name of the game, and nothing beyond a global uprising will curb their efforts.
Allowing anything other than a doctor’s intimate knowledge of his patients to administer medical advice, and/or procedural recommendations should be strongly opposed. Not to mention the invasion of privacy by the database needed to house all of patient’s information, the funds necessary to implement such a program, or the repercussions on individual’s Second Amendment rights by the government’s knowledge of psychiatric care.
Just to bring the numbers into perspective, the current national dept continues to climb closer to the 12 trillion dollar mark. This number reflects only what the government has borrowed and omits the debt obligations incurred my Medicaid, Medicare, and Social Security. A more accurate calculation of our national debt stands around 56.4 trillion, according to the Peter G. Peterson Foundation.
The Peter G. Peterson Foundation’s mission, “is to increase public awareness of the nature and urgency of key economic challenges threatening America’s future and accelerate action on them. To meet these challenges successfully, we work to bring Americans together to find sensible, sustainable solutions that transcend age, party lines and ideological divides in order to achieve real results.”
Where does team Obama plan to get the money to pay for a socialized health care system? Would he simply print the money, as the Feds are doing at an alarming, inflationary rate; Or would he propose new and improved taxes to foot the bill? As if the American public is not taxed enough, now we must pay for an inferior product at a non-negotiable rate which it to be directly deducted from our paychecks.
Makes you feel proud to be an American, doesn’t it?

Psychopaths are clever, vain, selfish, paranoid and vindictive and they are totally free from feelings of guilt, since they have no conscience. They turn up in any human population, because they were our natural leaders a few thousand years ago. Most people will also follow them, since that was the way of survival back then. They weasel their way into every human group and destroy it from within, usually doing great harm in the process, not because they are bad, but because this is their nature. Their influence destroys trust, human rights and respect for others. They are total control freaks who cannot be happy or satisfied as long as anybody or any group is exercising freedom from control. When you use government to empower them, tragedy results. The psychopath/followers tendency is in all humans, built in. There have been very rare examples, where a person could do Cocaine or Heroin a few times and then just disinterestedly quit. There has never in the History of the Universe been a single human who remained sane when given the ability to make other people’s decisions for them and enforce obedience. Some people will point to Christ, as an example, but when they offered political power to Him, He refused. Even a relatively sane, balanced person will become a psychopath from holding too much power over others. How do we tell government to butt out of our lives unless we, individually, ask for help?

Where will the government get the money for universal healthcare? How about from a little change of government priorities. The US this year is spending over $600 billion dollars on defense)not including the cost of two ongoing wars. The next largest expenditure by any country is China with $84 billion. Does that not suggest something to you? Think about it. As far as smearing universal healthcare as “socialized medicine” that is total right wing bunk! The same people that currently are running the healthcare system will continue to do so only much more streamlined. There will be no more fighting with some profit hungry insurance company for coverage of your life or death operation. Right now the company would rather see you dead if it adds a few cents to their bottom line. Remember that all of America is togethe rin this undertaking. It is incumbent on everyone not to scam the system. You may have to wait for a discretionary operation because someone who may die if they don’t get treated will usurp your place in line. But if this change in the system is not done then the person will die. Surely you are not willing to consign that person to death because you might have to wait an extra week to get your arthritic knee operated on. It’s worth thinking about all the ramifications not just the irritation such a change could cause you personally. Besides I’m sure the authorities will leave private insurance in place for those who still want it.
