All This Is Simple Hogwash!

Have you been following this crap about health care reform?

This is getting crazy and not in the cool crazy way either. What happened to sensible debate? Yeah, I know. Both sides can blame the other for the collapse of that, but still...

On the news today (and I have been hearing it over and over and over for the past several weeks) some lady was talking about she wants the government completely out of her life. OK. Fine. We each have our own wants and this is what she wants so I say lets grant it to her. While we are at it, we will toss in how ever many people that feel the same way. There is a catch though...

I am not for socialized medicine and neither is my government. I know this because it has been stated over and over and over again it clear, simple to understand to anyone with a first grade education english. Foreigners who have limited english skills have even picked up on it. I am willing to bet that the people who are dosing out this anti socialist vibe are the same ones who want english as the official language of the US. Hey people, do not ask for something if you do not comprehend it!

I believe my president when he says single-payer health care is not happening in the US under his watch. Why? So far he has not given me any reason to not believe him. I am not here to debate the health care thing. It is like speaking to a wall to most people.

Oh, back to my plan about dealing with the no government people...

If you do not want any government in your life, that is your choice, however, those of us who do not mind a limited government have a few requests of you...

1. We paid for the streets and since you do not want to pay for them anymore (government spending) then you do not get to use them.
2. The government regulates (to varying degrees of success) food safety. So, you cannot share in the food supply readily available to all of us. Grow your own.
3. Take your kids out of school. Be it public or private. The government sets standards on education. They do not get to play in our world anymore. Your degree (if you have one on any level) is no longer valid.Re-read my paragraph to understand why.
4. If your house catches fire or you are robbed or assaulted, you cannot call the police or fire any more. You don't want to pay for it and I really do not want to pay anyone to save your ass from anything.
5. You lose all your identity. Birth certificates are issued by government agencies. As are drivers licenses (see #1.) Social Security cards (more later) and Passports to name a few. You lose all of them. So, your bank...ah, a good time for another...
6. Close your bank account. Bank accounts are insured by the federal government, so, you lose that option. Since you lose all your proof of identity, I guess that nullifies this argument.
7. You get to loose your utility service and do it yourself. My tax dollars pay for municipal upgrades to the "grid" and I am not paying for your TV anymore.
8. I guess you may as well quit your job since local and state governments as well as the federal government tax your income and the only way to live tax free is to make money panhandling, so grab your sign and pick a street corner.
9. Lose your car. This kind of ties into #1. The government sets safety standards that regulate how your car is made. That is government in your life and you want it out, so, no more car. Since you cannot drive on my roads anymore, you do not need one anyway. Do not walk either.
10. Since you dismiss all government interference in your life, then the Constitution of the United States of America no longer applies to you so...SHUT THE F__K UP!

This congress and administration was democratically elected by a majority of the people of this country back in november, 2008. Your horse did not win? To bad. Neither did mine. But I deal with it and accept it. That's life. We have another chance to change that next year. I want the Denver Broncos to win every superbowl, but well, that does not happen does it?

GET OVER IT! Stop listening to the right-wing bat-shit crazies and learn to make your own mind from the evidence.
