We MUST Stop OUR Government!!

So everyone should know by now that the House voted late last night and, after many bribes and backroom deals, passed the Senate's Obamacare Bill - with NO alterations whatsoever. So who really knows what's in the Bill? It is painful to research, but I want to share with everyone the main points of the Bill.

Take a minute to read these and then let's talk about how important it is that we REPEAL this Bill IMMEDIATELY!!! Post comments here on my BLOG or on my Facebook fan page by the same name.

- Effective IMMEDIATELY, Health Insurance companies will no longer be able to deny people with pre-existing conditions. This is actually listed as a "pro" on liberal and statist BLOGs. How is this going to help? If you have a "risk pool", which is what insurance companies have, and you intentionally add SICK people to it, you have no choice but to INCREASE your premiums so you can offset the cost of the liability you were just forced to accept. Premiums will go up for everyone, even the low income families Obama has manipulated into supporting him. And we will lose jobs due to insurance companies having to lay off to find profit to make up for the hit they will take from this requirement. Sound positive to you? Now, there is a way to reform this portion of the Bill to help those with pre-existing conditions. This isn't it though.

- 33 MILLION Americans (Americans? ya' right, not all of them) will begin receiving Health Insurance through a massive expansion of Medicaid and the creation of State-run insurance exchanges (co-ops or "pools"). Again, this is cited as a major "pro" of the Bill. In reality, this throws money at an already broken program and increases everyone's Premiums even more (on top of what the first bullet point will do). You can't add freeloaders to a risk pool without the risk level increasing. Whenever this happens, costs go up for all. Problem 2 with this "pro" is that it increases the number of patients our already short-staffed medical personnel will be seeing by FIFTEEN PERCENT!! So we are already short on Doctor's and we are going to increase their client base by 15%...... supply and demand tells me that either they will raise their prices or lower their quality of service - or most likely a combination of the two. And the doctor's will have to deal with all of this while at the same time receiving a decrease in their reimbursements for MediCare patients. The rest of us will be charged to make up differences. I ask again, how is this a "pro"?

- So here is a "con" by anyone's standards, except for those 200+ Democrats that voted in favor of it anyway - Beginning in 2014, if you choose not to have Health Insurance for any reason whatsoever, you will be FINED $695 by our Government. That amount is based on premiums going down of course. They will not go down though and that fine will have to be drastically increased if it is to accomplish it's goal. So, for the first time in our country's history, you are being told by the government how to spend your hard-earned money. If you defy the Kings and Queens, you will be FINED. This is NOT Democracy. This is Tyranny. This is enslavement disquised as ..... oh, actually they aren't even trying to disguise it anymore are they? They are openly beating us into submission.

- Employers with 50 or more employees will be fined $2000 per employee if they do not provide them with health Insurance. Here is how that plays out in the real world: the employer that has 55 or 60 (or even 70 employees), instead of paying $100,000+ a year in fines, is most likely going to lay off people until he has 49 employees. More unemployment means more burden on the rest of us. And what is his motivation to create jobs? Not going to happen. He is going to stay at 49. But let's say he doesn't lay them off and he pays the fine instead (as if!!). He still has to make a profit, so he increases his costs to the consumer for whatever it is he is selling (product, service, etc.)! This translates to less sales for him and less revenue collected by the IRS, not to mention more layoffs. All of this means more burden on the taxpayer and will also mean higher Insurance Premiums for all.

Let's points out a few other by-products of this mess:
- Doctor's near retirement age will opt for early retirement and close their practices because of the unreasonable environment our government will be creating for them. This means layoffs. This also means even less Doctor's, which means even higher Premiums and lower quality service.
- Small businesses everywhere will be pushing their employee's to join State pools so they can lesson the burden on themselves - which will create further burden on the taxpayers.
- "Debt to Income" ratios across the country will increase, leaving less and less money to spend back into our economy. This means drastically less sales tax collected by the states, which leads to increased Payroll Taxes and Property Taxes.
- With so little money being spent by consumers, the Real Estate market will truly collapse. Not the 15-25% drops in value we have seen over the past 4 years - I am talking 40-50% drops from CURRENT lowered values. This will cause unheard of unemployment in the construction industry, banking industry, and on and on right down the line.
- This is a platform for our government to propose and pass more Socialist programs like Obamacare. The precedent has been established.
- Our elected officials no longer have to listen to the will of the people. Again, the precedent has been set based on the corrupt manor in which they passed this Bill.


Everything is tied to everything else here folks. The circle of life is being artificially tampered with and this will create uncertainty like we have never seen in our history. Our country will go further into debt and our debtors WILL call on us for repayment. And they will do it when we are at our lowest, when they fear that their chances of every being re-paid are all but lost. We won't have the means to repay them. This is where wars start people. Real wars. Real death. With the technology of today's world, another World War would cause death and destruction on a level even the most disgusting video game has not imagined.

Think I am taking this too far? After all, what harm can come from trying to help people recieve medical attention and save money? As I say above, our economy is linked to everything we touch. Even the smallest uncertainty can change our financial position for years. Health care is 16% of our entire economy. Imagine how devistating this could possibly be.

But we still have a voice. We still have a platform of our own. We still have the means to turn this around. We still have the intelligence, the desire, and the tools to take this country back. We still have a vote people! It seems to be all we have left that our corrupt government cannot ignore. One little vote in Massachussetts in January caused the entire ObamaCare agenda to change strategies. They had to skirt around so many procedures and policies to get the senate Bill passed that even they have lost track of their corruption and back room deals. All because of 1 election in 1 state. Imagine the scare we could give them if we repalced 20 of these corrupt politicians (on both sides of the isle!!!)!!!! Imagine if we replaced 30 of them?!?!? That is where it starts people. We need to replace every last one of them, but we need to start somewhere. The next time we have a shot at doing this is in November of THIS YEAR. We cannot lose focus or enthusiasm between now and then. We have to hold people accountable. If we do not, they will hold us enslaved.

I love this country. I am taking it back from the corrupt elites. Please join the fight.

  1. The Democratic devils are spouting over and over how this bill is for the people. After all the Republicans were trying to block this because of their ties to big business and the healthcare lobby, right? Funny that the healthcare stocks today are soaring with the passing of this bill. Wow, if the Dems arent for big business, then how is it that their pet bill will make the medical stocks billions? How could this possibly happen? because their agenda is a lie wrapped in a lie. God help us all. VOTE EVERYONE OUT PEOPLE.
