Dear Patriots…
The camel’s nose is under the tent. The intruder’s foot is in the door. Pandora’s Box has been cracked open. Whatever image works for you, Sunday’s 11th hour vote on ”health care reform” was indeed “historic,” but for all the wrong reasons. Some are quick to point out what’s “good in the bill.” Yes, there are now provisions for pre-existing conditions, for instance. But that’s fool’s gold and it’s hardly the point. Most of the corrections needed could have been far more easily and cheaply accomplished by free market solutions in the private sector, along with passing legislation to allow outside-your-own-state competition and to eliminate frivolous and costly malpractice suits. A government takeover of yet another major component of the private sector was unnecessary and wholly uncalled for!
What happened is that America was pushed down the hill of socialism in the name of “health care reform“: More of your privacy was legislated away. The IRS will now hire 16,500 new agents to take care of the compliance piece. Quality care will be reduced and diluted. And Medicare will be further plundered to pay for it–hitting our seniors the hardest–along with almost immediate tax increases. Protocols clearly outlined by our Constitution were deliberately ignored. And backroom deals to fence-straddling legislators made it all come true. Signed into law today (while the Executive Order to exclude taxpayers from being forced to fund abortion went conveniently UNsigned!) Welcome to the Mother of all entitlement programs! Ahhh…government! ”Helping” us all so very much!
This is no time to pack it in. Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty. This matters not only to us, but to our children and grandchildren. How can you get involved? Contact us at louisvilleteaparty@gmail.com.
Help us preserve and restore our Republic.
