WHY WOULD WE EVEN THINK ABOUT SOMETHING LIKE THIS WITH A TRACK RECORD LIKE THIS?






















The Many Failures of Congress

CONGRESS BEWARE; WE THE PEOPLE ARE WATCHING, WE'LL SEE YOU AT THE NEXT ELECTION!
For those who need a picture,To the Congress:

The U.S. Postal Service was established in 1775 - you have had 234 years to get it right; it is broke.

Social Security was established in 1935 - you have had 74 years to get it right; it is broke.


Fannie Mae was established in 1938 - you have had 71 years to get it right; it is broke.
The "War on Poverty" started in 1964 - you have had 45 years to get it right; $1 trillion of our money is confiscated each year and transferred to "the poor"; it hasn't worked and our entire country is broke.

Medicare and Medicaid were established in 1965 - you've had 44 years to get it right; they are broke.


Freddie Mac was established in 1970 - you have had 39 years to get it right; it is broke.


Trillions of dollars were spent in the massive political payoffs called TARP, the "Stimulus", the Omnibus Appropriations Act of 2009... none show any signs of working, although ACORN appears to have found a new source: the American taxpayer.And finally, to set a new record:


"Cash for Clunkers" was established in 2009 and went broke in 2009! It took cars (that were the best some people could afford) and replaced them with high-priced and less-affordable cars, mostly Japanese. A good percentage of the profits went out of the country And the American taxpayers take the hit for Congress' generosity in burning three billion more of our dollars on failed experiments.
So with a perfect 100% failure rate and a record that proves that "services" you shove down our throats are failing faster and faster, you want Americans to believe you can be trusted with a government-run health care system?20% of our entire economy?With all due respect,Are you crazy?



Check 0ut Cloward - Pivens overwhelm the system strategy and ask yourself if a Health Reform Bill which requires the repeal of tort reform if it is already implemented in a state before the state qualifies for federal funds is for the benefit of the common person. Tort reform is a much less risky improvement which could enhance healthcare. The Pelosi Bill does away with it. Looks like she cares more about the Plaintiff Bar than us.
Two quotes from a wise man from the 1800s saw this type of claiming to do good for the little people while looting the system.
“When under the pretext of fraternity, the legal code imposes mutual sacrifices on the citizens, human nature is not thereby abrogated. Everyone will then direct his efforts toward contributing little to, and taking much from, the common fund of sacrifices. Now, is it the most unfortunate who gains from this struggle? Certainly not, but rather the most influential and calculating.” -- Frederick Bastiat
"Now, legal plunder can be committed in an infinite number of ways. Thus we have an infinite number of plans for organizing it: tariffs, protection, benefits, subsidies, encouragements, progressive taxation, public schools, guaranteed jobs, guaranteed profits, minimum wages, a right to relief, a right to the tools of labor, free credit, and so on, and so on. All these plans as a whole—with their common aim of legal plunder—constitute socialism.” -- Frederick Bastiat 1801 - 1850















Old people have

no reason to live.

Give them some pain medicine until we get

rid of them.
