What Happens Post Health Care Bill Passage?

Once the Senate health care bill passes, the Democrats will scramble to "fix" all the ideological issues that are not met in the bill. The abortion provision will reappear. The Medicare cuts will reappear. And, along with those two items, there will be all sorts of tax increases begin to show up and it will become clear how the private insurance companies will be emasculated. This will be done in the same manner as we have seen, or not seen, up to this point. These changes will be made and implemented behind closed doors, with only Democrats in attendance, and as many of these changes as possible will be made as regulations and not under law. The legislative process, as directed by the Constitution, will be circumvented and these things pushed upon WE THE PEOPLE with no input. At the same time, every effort will be made to post date these changes until after the mid term elections in an effort to "hide" all this from WE THE PEOPLE in the hope of electing as many Democrats as possible in the mid terms. Beginning in January of 2010, there will be billions of dollars from the remaining stimulus funds poured into any districts needing help to elect and reelect Democrats. I hope and pray WE THE PEOPLE will do our own thinking and see all this for what it is. It will be difficult to sort out with the media not reporting most of it.

The Health Care Bill Will Pass!

The health care bill will pass. Even though it was written by special interests, no one knows what is in it and it is written in a way that allows it to be changed at will by career, entrenched politicians. It doesn't matter what is in it. It will be changed to be whatever the politicians want it to be and it will eventually include all the things the Democrat controlled congress desires to put in it. That is why it is so important to do all we can to stop it. All the arguments taking place over the past week or so are nothing more than political rhetoric. The fact is, this is a done deal! I have been faxing my Senators with a plea to scrap this bill and incrementally go to work to change any perceived problems in the health care system, through the proper legislative channels, as written in The Constitution. I have no hope this will take place. The replies I have received tell me it matters not what I think or what WE THE PEOPLE think. What is happening is a subversion of the Constitutional process at the expense of WE THE PEOPLE.

Do the Polls Lie?

Why is it that all the polls are showing more than 50% of WE THE PEOPLE are AGAINST the proposed health care reform, believe the President is failing, Cap and Trade is bad for the economy, Card Check is bad for the economy and Global Warming is unproven science and still these programs are moving forward? It proves the point that our government believes it knows better than WE THE PEOPLE on all of these issues. Add to that the recent polls showing Congress is less to be trusted than anyone. It proves these proposed programs are not, in any way, about WE THE PEOPLE but about ideology, personal agendas and political power, designed to further the power of career, entrenched politicians and special interests with deep pockets and the means to own politicians.

The Insanity of Government

Any person capable of comprehensive thought must be appalled at what is happening in our government. All things considered, what is most disturbing is the fact that congress believes the voice of the people is meaningless. More importantly, as I wrote in The Stimulus Tragedy, is these career, entrenched politicians believe the people are unqualified to have any say in government. They believe, and prove it in their words, programs and votes, that if it were not for them, "the masses", as the President says it, could not function. I also said in The Stimulus Tragedy that "there are millions of Americans more aptly qualified and competent to serve as President than the current President", and this becomes more evident every day. There are so many things happening in our government it is impossible to keep up with it. That is what these career, entrenched politicians want. Since "the masses" are incapable of making the decisions necessary to operate the government, they must make these decisions for us. The only solution to this insanity is to remove any Representative having served more than 4 terms and Senator serving more than 2 terms. And thereby breaking up this mentality that WE THE PEOPLE are incapable of comprehensive thought. And, this must begin to happen in the mid term elections of 2010. I personally believe it won't much matter if these newly elected are Democrat or Republican. The fact that these newly elected are in their first term, WE THE PEOPLE will have some control over them, at least in their first term. then evaluate the newly elected and replace them as soon as they get "bought off" by special interests and knuckle under to the pressure of the party system of which they are a part. It happens in both parties. In The Stimulus Tragedy it was written that our government works best when the makeup of Congress is close to evenly divided between the left and right views. This is the best way to keep either side from running away with government with blind ideology and personal agendas separate from the the will of WE THE PEOPLE.
