If Only...

A lot of talk about Health care Reform...oops...I mean Health Insurance Reform these days. Let me get this out of the way: If "Health care Reform" was working, why did they change it the "Health Insurance Reform"? (see Global warming/Climate change) Edmund Burke wrote "Every reform is only a mask undercover of which a more terrible reform, which dare not name itself, advances". If only there was a system of health care that would cover people at least 65 years of age or older and it could be financed by payroll taxes. And those taxes would be paid by employees and employers alike. And if only we could supplement it by a monthly premium from a retirement plan...let's call that ...um...Social Security.

If only we could include certain disabilities like renal failure and Lou Gehrig's disease. And this plan could also include a Part B which would include doctor visits and other medical supplies for a small price. If only there was a program that would cover low income persons of all ages that was broader. To include Physician visits, In/Out patient hospital services, prescriptions, mental health care,home and community care, and transportation to these facilities. And if there is any shortcomings, or problems with these programs, we could pass legislation, let' s call it a Stimulus Package worth $780 Billion and instead of changing light bulbs, funding ACORN, and paying back special interests(Unions) it would be used to address these problems.

If only we could find the money to expand these programs instead of having money for tunnels for turtles, covered bicycle garages, private planes and helicopters, jungle gyms. And instead of increasing the taxes for the Hardworking Americans we could find a way to maintain the funding by collecting funds. Maybe through payroll deductions, and if not enough was deducted we could establish a day...let's arbitrarily pick April 15...in which we could collect the rest of the funds. If we really want to cover this fraudulent 47 million (See Liberty and Tyranny by Mark Levin) we should enact such a program.

Oh wait it already exists it is called Medicare and Medicaid. This bill is NOT about covering 1 out of 55 that don't have Health care. This is about a tax increase on every American. This about controlling one of things that you have left in this country, the freedom to seek the best health care in the world. Linda Douglas is right there is a lot of dis-information out there and it is coming from the leadership of the Democrat party. They are selling a free lunch that doesn't exist. There is not 47 million uninsured Americans, this is NOT the 39Th best health care in the world, Insurance companies are not the reason for the rising health care cost (innovation is). Have you benefited from the gamma knife, cancer treatments, brain scans, MRI, X-Rays, Viagra?

Say it out loud:the same people that I call idiots, only care about being re-elected, morons, people who don't represent me, stupid bureaucrats, neo-cons, liberal fascists (recent poll) will do a better job with my health care decisions than I will. How does that sound? Stop spending our money in stupid places on stupid people if you really care about the fraudulent 47 million people without health care.
