Young people are one of the major reasons Obama got voted in. How does he reward them? The health care bill that the Senate is voting on this very second (watching it this morning and praying for a miracle FAILURE ---- actually ..... Reid just voted and then the 51st vote for it came in after that .... so it has now passed and will ehad to the House) REQUIRES our youth (and all Americans) to buy health insurance from someone or they will be fined $750/year.
Even worse, if the young don't buy insurance, the middle aged and older will have higher premiums because the provider's risk is so much higher without the younger, HEALTHIER youth of America participating in their "risk pool" - which helps to offset the costs for Americans as they age and have increased health issues. And whether or not the youth of America participate, which most will not because it is a waste of their money, the citizens that are going to be left paying for this hasty, partisan reform aren't even born yet.
....and not to leave any age group out, the President had an opportunity to use the monies paid back from borrowers from the last TARP to apply toward Medicare for our "seniors"...... did he do it? No. Did he use the monies to pay down the deficit? No. Did he give it back to the Americans he took it from to begin with? No. What did he do with it? He approved a completely new spending bill for the returned monies - which actually violated the TARP bill itself that directed any monies paid back to go towards reducing the deficit.
He has managed to alienate EVERY single age group in this country.
The single scariest thing? There is not ONE poll that wanted this Bill to pass, not even the polls adminstered by liberal groups - not a single poll. Sometimes polls can be mis-leading because they are done so hastly or are too isolated. Not the case here. Remember, Congress has been working on this all year. Hundreds and hundreds of polls have been taken from every imaginable pool of citizens and they were done over months and months ...... and America, both the conservative "cores" and liberal "cores", do NOT want this type of reform.
I think almost every citizen in the country would want reform of some kind if they fully understood the opportunities for us to improve what is already the best healthcare system in the world. As an example: if all citizens were free to buy insurance across statelines, competition would naturally drive costs down. This would not only make it more affordable for more Americans to purchase insurance (IF they wanted to that is), but it would also reduce the debt for those that have insurance --- thus freeing up money for them to put towards that martgage tehy bought that they can't afford or to put back into the economy by spending it thye can afford to - both of which would help the eceonomy and help avoid future "TARP's.
In case you don't know - being able to buy across state lines is not in either the House version of this bill or the Senate's. Why? WHY?? Because that would support capitolism and that goes against this landmark opportunity to pass the first ever REQUIRED ENTITLEMENT. "Required Entitlement" is the language that needs to be used here, but it needs to be explained. Entitlements are things that Socialist governments are made up of. You feel you are "entitled" to everything that your fellow citizens have and the government agrees that you should have it too, regardless of your effort to EARN it. We take this a step further here and actually REQUIRE citizens to particpate in it - or they will be fined $750/year. To my liberal friends, please think about it: the government is requiring our citizens to spend money on INSURANCE. If the citizen chooses not to spend their hard-earned money on INSURANCE, the government will TAKE $750/year from that citizen!!! How can ANYONE support STEALING from our citizens? What's next? They require us to buy certain foods that they decide are healthy for us -- and if we don't, we get FINED via paying higher taxes!!! They decide "mental health" shold fall under their socialist umbrella as well and now they want to fine us for playing certain video games or watching certain movies and even having high-stress jobs like "running a business" or "being a waitress". Those are high stress and bad for our mental states and we aren't mature enough to deal with it ourselves, so we get FINED for putting ourselves in a stressful position ..... WHAT?!!??!?!
That is where we are headed people. This Health Care Bill is the ultimate "gateway drug" and I am sickened by having this crammed down our throats. We are opening the door for the greedy politicians and extreme left to take over every aspect of our lives. The minority is truly dictating over the majority in this country. Not how it's supposed to work people. Please read The Consitution. If you read it and feel that it is wrong, please go start your own country somewhere -- anywhere. Just go away. Seriously, Canada has millions and millions of acres and miles and miles of vacant land. And they already have this crappy healthcare that you want. Go away. We can use the returned TARP monies to buy you land in Canada and build you homes (anything to get rid of you) -- but you can never come back to this great country.
If we do not stop this type of reform in the House in January, I truly do believe we will be using the language "oppression" in the very near future when it comes to the government's relationship with the people that it is supposed to work for and be afraid of. We will all be living lives that they want us to live, instead of the lives of our choosing - that is called oppression.

Does the President care about creating jobs?
President Obama campaigned with the number one focus of fixing the economy. That means he has to create jobs so Americans have money to spend. Without this, the economy will never recover. We must create jobs.
Since taking office, Obama has sent the country further into debt by passing a stimulas bill (among other things), which which cost us jobs. This cost us jobs because it is scaring Americans and they are spending less. Spending less causes businesses to cut back and to even shut down. Higher unemployment leads to less and less spending which just feeds this ugly circle.
Next, he tries to pass "Cap and Trade". This consumed the several months of his first year. This bill did not pass, but if it had it would have cost every single American a huge indirect tax increase. Utility companies would be charged under the bill for creating energy and these costs would be passed on to the consumer -- and every single American uses energy, so we all would have feel the dig. That scared Americans even more, both consumers and investors. Again, less money spent means more job cuts and more business closures.
Next, he puts all of his energy into passing government run healthcare. This gives Americans the biggest scare of all and consumer spending continues to drop ...... so, less jobs and more bankruptcies of businesses and consumers.
Next, he ignores the request from top Generals in our military for additional troops to WIN the war that we are fighting. More and more fear among Americans.
Now, he holds a "Job Summit" ...... in his 11th month? I thought this was his number one priority? A little overdue don't you think? Well, let's make it worse. The number one job provider in America is small business. The Chamber of Commerce has millions and millions of small business members. It would only make sense to have the Chamber of Commerce present at this job summit then. No invitation extended by Obama. It was nothing more than another photo op for the ego-maniac that sits atop the most powerful country in the world.
These are the facts.
Do you think he cares about creating jobs? Do you think we can stay atop the world if this extreme agenda is allowed to continue?
