I was listening to Forbes on Fox news and they had a socialist on there, his name is Mike and I didn't catch his last name, and as far as I'm concerned it doesn't matter, all socialist sound the same and have the same message.
They were talking about health care and as usual the socialist were spouting lies about President Obama's plans for national health care. Mike was talking about shared risk and cost in a government run plan. Is he kidding? Are socialist that stupid? Do they think we are that stupid? Does anyone really believe that as a whole the nation will share the cost of a national health care plan? What kind of drugs are these folks on?
First, if the numbers that the administration are using about the uninsured are correct (and they are over inflated) then we will start with 50 million uninsured to put on the government doll. Then add another 119 million that will lose their current plans because employers will drop them off their plans in favor of reducing the cost of doing business. Then add all the illegal aliens and this is a formula for disaster.
Second, how many of these folks I just mentioned can afford to pay for their health insurance? The 119 million probably can, but what inventive do they have to keep paying when the government is willing to pick up the tab and pass the cost onto the tax payers? So if the vast majority of those receiving national health care don't pay for it were is the pool of payers to share and shift the cost? The only cost shifting I see will be to the American tax payers!
These socialist make me sick. They want to make sure everyone gets whatever they want in life no matter if they deserve it or not. Believe it or not not everyone needs or deserves health insurance or health care! You might think that's a cold hearted statement, but it is the truth!
Some people are just starting out in their young adult lives and they look at the cost risk of health insurance and decide they don't want insurance at this time in their lives. As people get older and start families, they reevaluate their lives and start getting insurance for the family to cover unexpected medical expenses. Towards the end of our lives is when we need the most insurance so we can live out are lives in some semblance of dignity.
There are those in America that go through their lives taking everything they can without giving anything in return, I'm talking about those in our society that can work and contribute, but refuse to! These are the people that do not need or deserve health insurance or care. First, if they needed insurance they should get a job and obtain it that way. Being poor is no excuse for not having health insurance. My wife and myself make just above minimum wage and we have health insurance. Second if you are not willing to work, why do you expect anyone else to carry you through life? There is a difference between able and not able to work, and I'm talking to those who are able to work but refuse to!
Bottom line is socialism is trickle up poverty. In order for socialist to sell socialism, they have to lie about it and try and tug on people's heart strings in order to make it palatable! By the time socialism makes people sick to there stomachs it's hard for people to turn away from it!
Don't let the socialist fool you, they are trying to take over every aspect of our country and our lives! And socialist like Mike are selling the American people down the river! People who are supporting, or promoting the socialistic moves of this government are traitors to freedom and liberty everywhere, especially here in America!
