 An interesting insight to mind set of one party vs the other. |
Some of us realize that we cannot protect our fellow man from himself.
And the liberal dream of Government supporting us from the cradle to the grave is blatantly IMPOSSIBLE.
No one is arguing the beauty of your dream.
Its lovely, just impossible. NOT impractical, NOT unlikely, NOT difficult, but absolutely IMPOSSIBLE. Already 47% ARE supported by Government assistance. And we are beyond flat broke. The further past 50% that figure goes the faster we run out of money. And we SURELY will run out of money. obummer's deficit for this year is $1.4 TRILLION. X 4 years = $5.6 TRILLION. Democrats went insane over Bush increasing the deficit by $5 TRILLION in 8 years, and well they should have. All of us should have. But obummer the dolt, is on a path to exceed Bush's insanity in only 4 years. WITHOUT a health care bill, without cap n trade, without an education overhaul. How is that OK with you?
And being proud of covering 27 million more while still leaving 20 million swinging in the wind is bullsh!t. How can you justify saying that 47 million MUST be covered, then say 20 million will remain uncovered and call it a good job? Its NOT a good job! It GUARANTEES that ANOTHER Health CARE overhaul WILL be demanded in a year or 2 to cover the FAILINGS of this ill conceived bill!
And, of course, you AVOIDED the question of when or what Gov. program has cost as projected.
The last Government HEALTH INSURANCE program, MEDICARE, was projected to cost $65
MILLION per year. That is $650
MILLION per decade. Instead, in 44 years, it HAS cost just under $5
TRILLION. A MERE
186 times more than estimated, per year.
NOT a Republican view, NOT a Democrat view. The view of an American Vet, deathly afraid for the future of his beloved country!
