American Made Mutt

                          It has been my observance that we now live in what I refer to as "The Narcissism Age." Not that this is anything that just now happened, for it has been this way for awhile now. You know the "I want what I want and I want it RIGHT NOW group. The types who fall to pieces if their computers do not start up and obey commands within nanoseconds. The types who want a full frozen dinner ready in 30 seconds or less.

                          Young people who have been convinced by their parents that all they have to do is put their hand out and say "Give Me." You know these types as well, the Me, Me, Me, I, I, I, Mine, Mine, Mine group. These are the people who believe that THEY "Are the Center of the Universe." 

                          Our wonderful " Looters & Moochers" of the world, who work well with our narcissistic government which also considers itself the "Center of our Universe." Of course that would never had happened and could never continue to happen without the dangerous ignorance, selfishness and willful "grabbing of the GOODIES" of the American electorate, who trust me are NOT willing to give them up.

                          In politics we have an uneducated electorate which buys into anything some slimy politician or cable news or other media tells them in a 20 second sound bite. An uneducated electorate which believes that with the "Snap of a finger" and switching from EXTREME LEFT TO EXTREME RIGHT all will be right and blissful in the world once again.

                          So, what "GOODIES" are the "Looters & Moochers" ready to give up?

Let's start with: 1.) Tax "Credits"- Whenever someone receives a "government tax credit" well someone else is being "debited" for it. Redistribution of wealth.

                                 2.) Medicare- News Flash, This IS "socialized medicine." SUBSIDIZED by the "government" aka the taxpayer. I don't want to hear the BRAINWASHERS at AARP say they "paid into it," FAR MORE is taken than is given, thus, Redistribution of Wealth.

                                 3.) Medicaid- "Socialized medicine" yep Redistribution of Wealth

                                  4.)Social Security- PONZI SCHEME! BROKE! Redistribution of Wealth. But, It has been a handy dandy "slush fund" for the purloining corrupt crooks in Washington D.C. Most people aged 40 and under will probably not see it, OR if they do, they will be even more of "Slaves to the State."

                                  5.) Welfare/WIC/ Food Stamps- Facilitating and rewarding bad behavior and (as was intended) keeping people in generational poverty. Oh! and there is that Redistribution of Wealth thing again!

                                   6.)501C3's aka "Tax Exempt"- Political entities which LIE and call themselves "non-partisan" have learned how to play this game beautifully. Churches apparently have forgotten about that little thing called "Render unto Caesars what is Caesars." Redistribution of Wealth.

                                   7.) Free Higher Education- Got news for you kiddies and your parents who no longer teach work ethic and self-reliance IT AIN"T FREE!!!! Redistribution of Wealth. 

                                   8.) Unions- DESTROYERS of the "Free Market" system and Jobs and in bed with the Socialists and Marxists embedded deep within our government. Redistribution of Wealther's at it's finest!!! Which leads me to my last and it involves these DESTROYERS.

                                   9.) Subsidies- I saved the one which is my most personal pet peeve for last. We subsidize higher education, farming, and PRIVATELY held companies, and now ObamaCare. Subsidies are some of the purest forms of EVIL there has been in DESTROYING our Free Market Capitalist Country. We are currently subsidizing in the form of "BAILOUTS." And the MISUSED Pension Funds of the EVIL UNIONS will also now receive a BAILOUT!!! And all the while ALL of these recipients of subsidies ARE LINING THE POCKETS AND CAMPAIGN COFFERS of members of BOTH the Republicans and Democrats. Classic, you guessed it Redistribution of Wealth!

                                     So, is it really any wonder why the PRODUCERS are giving up? We are fed up with your narcissism! We are fed up with your Republicans and Democrats! We are fed up with all of you STEALING OUR LIBERTY!! 

                                     You see this is exactly how Hitler came to rise in his power. HE GAVE AWAY THE "GOODIES." I suggest you actually study history (accurate) and you will find MANY frightening examples and be able to liken them to your Oh so cherished Right/Left paradigm. As for people like me, we are looking for our "invisible mountain alcove." 

                                     Please check out; http://www.marxists.org/archive/pannekoe/1936/dictatorship.htm

                           It has become my most firm belief that BOTH Republicans and Democrats do not and have not represented "We the People" for countless decades now. They now ONLY represent those PAC'S & LOBBYISTS  which spend BILLIONS of dollars each and every year to PURCHASE THEIR VOTES. Which explains why the LARGEST LOBBY in our Country being "We the People" is blatantly ignored! Not to mention why "We the People" are broke and increasingly becoming slaves to the state.

                           As many of you who follow our blog know I am running as an INDEPENDENT for United States Congress in the 5th. Congressional district of Tennessee. Running as an INDIE is tough. Going up against the Gigantic MACHINE of the MONOPOLY that is republican and democrat parties is no easy task. But, one I believe is well worth doing. Our campaign has been doing it's best to EDUCATE voters in many ways, one being the unashamed  CORRUPTNESS of it all! So, I will begin "outing" the PAC's of our main opponents . Currently the Democrat incumbent is one Mr. Jim Cooper. I will out a few of the PAC's which will completely explain why this man has voted the way he has, especially the UNCONSTITUTIONAL HEALTH CARE BILL & THE COMMUNIST "CAP & TRADE" BILL which he voted for , not to mention TARP and EVERY other LARGE spending bill (while claiming to be a "Bluedog".) I will continue from time to time to "OUT" these PAC's which buy votes that SELL "We the People" down the "Road to Serfdom." When the Republican candidate is decided that person will have their turn as well. Also remember that aside from BIG monies from PAC's the R's and D's also receive BIG BUCKS from the "PARTY PAC'S. So, is it any wonder why we have always had other good candidates out there but they are NEVER known?

                     So, let's start with you Mr. Jim Cooper. Following are only some of his contributers, then an explanation. AFLAC, AMERICAN BANKERS ASSOC., AMERICAN FEDERATION OF GOVERNMENT EMPLOYEES, AMERICAN HEALTH CARE ASSOC., AT&T, BOEING, CATERPILLAR, CIGNA, FEDERATION OF AMERICAN HOSPITALS, HUMANA INC., NATIONAL ASSOC. OF HEALTH UNDERWRITERS, NATIONAL ASSOC. OF INSURANCE & FINANCIAL ADVISORS, NATIONAL COMMUNITY OF PHARMACISTS PINNACLE WEST CAPITAL CORP., UNITED HEALTH GROUP INC., VERIZON, VANDERBILT (HOSPITAL, MEDICAL CTR, AND UNIVERSITY)NOT TO MENTION (NUMEROUS UNION) PAC'S. And my personal favorite GENERAL ELECTRIC!.

                      Now, what do ALL of these have in common in regard to the way Mr. Cooper has voted. They will ALL gain TREMENDOUS PROFIT  from the recently passed health care legislation which did NOTHING to curb cost! GENERAL ELECTRIC is my favorite because they will make BILLIONS off of BOTH "Cap & Trade" and "Health Care Bill," not to mention they were BIG recipients of TARP!  The thing YOU need to most know and understand before I give only one example which should sum it all up, is that ALL OF THIS WILL BE "SUBSIDIZED" BY YOU THE TAX PAYER!

                       AT&T, CATERPILLAR, & VERIZON just to name a few have all made internal calculations as to how much more WELL OFF they will now be with regard to the "Health Care" legislation. For instance AT&T  paid $2.4 BILLION last year to cover medical costs for it's 283,000 active employees. If the company DROPPED its health plan and paid the penalty for each uninsured worker, the fines would total almost $600 million. BUT, that would leave AT&T with a tidy PROFIT of $1.8 BILLION. (source John C. Goodman, Wall Street Journal-May 21, 2010.)

                       Don't ya just love how "CRONY CAPITALISM" works! PRIVATIZED PROFITS (TAXPAYER) RISK!  FACT is WE, (TAXPAYER) have been SUBSIDIZING these and many other BIG PRIVATELY held companies for YEARS!

                       This man and the likes of him will now be DIRECTLY responsible for hospital care costing MORE, insurance premiums costing MORE, and medications costing MORE! He will also be responsible for YOUR utility bills (including cell phones) costing MORE, some predictions are SKYROCKETING increases. These entities WILL PROFIT quite handsomely.

                       However, not to worry Mr. Cooper's campaign coffers are full. I've no doubt his bank account is flush, is YOURS?

                       Now Mr. Cooper and his cronies want to "BAILOUT" UNION pension funds! I ask you where does the CORRUPTION END?

                       The Republican Party and the Democrat Party do buy the votes of their respective candidates and currently serving representatives. THAT IS A FACT! Thus the ol' "toeing the PARTY line."

                        McCain Feingold MUST go! REAL Lobby reform MUST be NOTHING! Not one single penny, not even a cup of free coffee! And I as a candidate have this on our web site as legislation we would immediately introduce. I also suggest you become one of our (friends or fans) on Facebook. (in your "search box" look for Jackie Miller For Congress.) I constantly update it and do our best to eduacate people as to the PURE EVIL that is the TWO PARTY/ONE PARTY system.

                         When the Republican "Chosen One" occurs, then we will follow their monies as well.

                         Please join me in being a part of RE-FOUNDING and RE-BIRTHING AMERICA.

                        www.jackiemillerforcongress.com

                           STEP ONE: Admitted we were powerless over Congress, that our debt, our kool-aid drinking, our dependency on Washington D.C. had become un-manageable.

                           One of the many things that was pounded in to my head on my "road to recovery" was that I needed to "un-learn" and that my brain needed some washing alright! We as Americans have been being 'Brainwashed' for close to 100 years now.  We have the HEROIN equivelant of addiction to the Congress/Federal government "giving us goodies."  And they have certainly "hooked" us all in some form or fashion. Let's remember, "There is NO such thing as a truly FREE lunch!

                           Now, we have run out of money and it is TIME TO DETOX!

                           We have been brainwashed over many decades to believe that BIG government is the answer to everything. That they give us our rights, that they will take care of us.NO, NO, NO! GOD gives us our "rights!" That Republicans or Democrats are our ONLY choice. We have been BRAINWASHED into believing that they were "looking out for the middle class." WRONG! We have in fact let them decide what "class" we even belong in, thus creating a type of 'caste system' and what I believe an intension to incite divisiveness.

                             Our D.C. representatives have BRAINWASHED us in to believing that they were against those mean old nasty BIG uber wealthy "robber baron" types. When in FACT they are very cozy and bought and paid for by them. They BRAINWASHED us in to believing that SUBSIDIZING something lowers prices and creates a fairer trade system, when in FACT it actually does the opposite! They have BRAINWASHED us in to trusting them to "solve a crisis" when in FACT they are the very same people who have created said and ALLEGED "crisis," and in FACT always use these "created" opportuntities to INCREASE the size and scope of big government and take more of our CONSTITUTIONAL LIBERTIES away, thus having more CONTROL over "We the People."

                            Many parents and young people have been BRAINWASHED in to believing they MUST have a college degree to be successful or be a piece of cow doo. Never mind the debt, or the fact that many young people have other God given gifts and talents which may only require some type of tech school or maybe even good old fashioned apprenticeship. But that is all about indoctrination.

                            Millions of us were BRAINWASHED in to believing that we were big losers and again pieces of cow poop if we did NOT own or buy a house. We were BRAINWASHED that it was bad to live in apartments or mobile homes. I must admit that even I actually fell into that ideology at one time in my life, and truly thought I was a loser for living in an apartment. Never mind the facts of how nice it was and "what I DID NOT have to worry about" in regard to maintenance issues.

                            Then they BRAINWASHED and got us HOOKED on cheap Chinese products. How did that happen? We can thank Congress for it's very cozy relationship with UNIONS, thank Congress for it's big bureaucracies which within those contain other agencencies, in other words lots of "red tape." We can also thank Congress for the second highest corporate tax in our world. Not to mention because Congress SPENDS so frivolously they have made sure we are indebted to China with no end in sight, thus even though they know it hurts our own AMERICAN manufacturing sector, their blatant disregard and corruptness FORCES them to 'kiss the rear-end' of China so they will continue to loan to us. Now, as I write this Congress is attempting to once again FORCE "CAP & TRADE" which bottom line will not only chase more of big business away but, will KILL the economy even more and will further KILL the pocket books of all of us.

                            So, "We the People" MUST let me be stern on this, MUST begin our detoxification by doing the following;  STOP believing that we are ONLY a 'two party' system. BOTH the Republicans and Democrats have indeed done a fine job of  BRAINWASHING us into that belief. NOT TRUE! Beginning with this election cycle vote for the person based on their principles and character NOT "Party." The "Party's" are CORRUPT! And are far more cozier than they make the effort for you to believe. Please trust me, there REALLY is the "I'll scratch your back and protect you if you'll scratch mine and protect me" attitude. I have, as many others come to believe that they simply put on a good show for us via the 'LAMESTREAM MEDIA.' Which brings me to, start finding information elsewhere, of course be careful, but there are GREAT and reputable sources for TRUTH and FACTS which have nothing but truth seeking and fact finding as an agenda.

                             STOP with the "YEAH BUT" mentality with SUBSIDIZING! One more time, SUBSIDIZING RAISES the cost of products, NOT lowers! It is 'price controlling.' Higher Education is a great example of this. Prices keep going up because the attitude of the "powers that be" is "The government will send us more money and keep BAILING us out." This has also been the biggest problem in regard to farming. DO NOT BE FOOLED! Why do you think we are NO longer the "Bread basket of the world" much less our own Country. I hear the "YEAH BUT'S" from folks that say it's for the "jobs" Get this straight no, no ,no IT COSTS JOBS in the long run.

                              Hey! It is okay to live in an apartment! A good friend once taught me to "Look more at what I DIDN'T have to worry about." Some attempt to convince people that it is more expensive to live in apartments. Actually long term that is not necessarily true.

                              DETOX off of Chinese products!!! There are businesses cropping up all over our Country offering MADE IN AMERICA products. If more of us support them then prices will come down. That is how FREE MARKETS are supposed to work. Start buying AMERICAN produce, Farmers Markets if you have one near you are wonderful!

                              Begin THINKING THE UN-THINKABLE about our Federal government and you, like so many of us will find not only the answers to your questions, but the painful TRUTH.

                              In closing, there are MANY MORE areas we MUST begin the painful process of detoxing from, like "tax credits" these are only a few. And it WILL be painful for a while. Ask any former drug addict, it's a long road. ALL of us must understand that our problems are now squarely on the shoulders of "We the People."  If we are to be honest with ourselves we indeed have been part of the problem too. And WE must decide NOW, do we want "short term pain for what can be incredibly long term gain." Or believing that just switching sides AAAGAIN in politics will be the answer. I say NOT. That will only produce "short term gain (a bit of hope at best) for what I assure you will be long, very long term pain." Either way we decide will be painful, it is simply a matter of how much pain YOU are willing to deem acceptable.

                               As always, we look forward to your input and comments. However, we do NOT accept what are blatant attempts at free advertisement nor any that come through as spam. Thank You.

                                  I am writing this today, as I received an e-mail early this morning regarding a "smear campaign" to stop a money bomb for a coalition of 'third party' candidates by allegedly "conservative patriotic" groups. These alleged patriotic folks are DEMANDING that (one) of  the candidates step down. These alleged patriotic folks will send out a massive e-mail attack on any of the rest of us if the board of this organization does not FORCE him off of their Liberty list. Last time I checked this is a form of blackmail and extortion. So this HATEFUL KOOL-AID DRINKING bunch of alleged patriotic folks is smearing ALL of the rest of us. SHAME ON YOU! For we will now see just how patriotic and conservative you REALLY ARE!

                                I wonder, how many of you out there protesting at Tea Party events are one of the almost 50% of our country who pay NO federal income tax? Don't give me the typical comeback of BUT you pay lots of other taxes. News flash so do the other 50% on top of their federal! So, are YOU willing to fore-go your 'earned income tax credits', 'head of  household tax credits,' and 'child tax credits'? Oh! I can hear the justification now! Another news flash all of those "credits" ADD TO THE NATIONAL DEBT!

                                How many protesting may have taken the $8000.00 tax credit to get a house. All of the realtor's out there were advertising this as free money. Yep, another news flash NOT FREE and ADDS to our nation's debt!

                               How many of you who CLAIM to be conservative or patriotic and CLAIM to be protesting our unsustainable debt have your child's college education being subsidized by the American taxpayer? Yep, here again ADDS TO THE NATIONAL DEBT! Would you be willing to tell them to get a job to pay for said higher education? Come on now, you are supposed to be concerned about debt and taxes.

                               How many of you operate underground businesses (now don't lie, I have met some of you) and justify it because you don't like the way your taxes are being used? Not that I can't understand that, but don't be a hypocrite and stand there protesting debt and taxes, when you are not contributing.

                              How many of you who CLAIM to be patriots and want to restore the Republic, would give up or temporarily ignore your small business to run for an office? No, actually all you do instead is choose to PUT DOWN AND SMEAR and play the political equivalent of movie critic. You know the old saying, "those that CAN"T do, criticize! But, then again you have been part of the problem for decades. Why, BECAUSE NOBODY IS EVER GOOD ENOUGH FOR YOU! Recall, the old Reagan 80-20 rule of thumb?

                              How many of you CLAIMING to be patriotic and conservative have told me you are perfectly okay with large privately owned companies ie; AT&T, Caterpillar, GE, etc. which were recently in the news, being subsidized by federal money for retiree drug costs? Yes, this is the truth as I found this out first hand at a "conservatives" meeting and on a facebook thread. Yep, news flash subsidizing ADDS to the debt! So DON'T tell me you understand the philosophy of Ayn Rand!

                             How many of you CLAIMING to be patriotic and conservative refer to those of us who want to END any form of Central Banking, aka THE FED as a bunch of wackos? Here again I have heard many of the alleged conservatives running for office say and I quote, that "The FED is a necessary evil." I'll state this one more time EVIL IS EVIL! And is NEVER a "necessary" option or choice.

                            How many of you who CLAIM patriotism and conservatism scream about drilling for our own American Oil, instead of continuing to make enemy nations richer, (which I agree with) but, you have no problem with helping their cause by jumping in your car to drive to and from your workplace for lunch everyday? Heaven forbid you brown bagged it! Thereby NOT adding to their wealth.

                            How about those of you CLAIMING to care about 'small business' and Main Street MOM & POPS snub them and support 'The People's Republic of Walmart" and other Big Box and Chain restaurants? But, you have NO problem going into their shops and asking for donations for a charity du jour. Not only the utter height of hypocrisy, but downright CLASSLESS! And most certainly NOT patriotic in accordance with what the backbone of our free enterprise system was founded on, you guessed it, MAIN STREET small business!

                           Are you a protester out there CLAIMING to care about our debt and decline in self reliance, but are receiving ENDLESS unemployment benefits? Or maybe okay with a friend of yours who does? Yep, you guessed it, ADDS TO THE DEBT! Please DO NOT JUSTIFY. There have been numerous businesses in the news and who have shared with me personally that someone coming in looking for work, and said business offered the job, and said person said, "They only wanted a few hours so they could maintain getting their unemployment." That is a FACT!

                          Are you CLAIMING that you are a conservative and VERY PATRIOTIC yet are perfectly okay with ENDLESS wars. You are okay and CLAIM that it is patriotism for so many of our military men and women to continue being subjected to horrible conditions, like pooping in a plastic bag, extreme heat, etc. along with one arm tied behind their backs for the sake of POLITICAL CORRECTNESS, watching their fellows being blown apart by an IED. You actually think it is "patriotic"  not to mention Christian for these incredible men and women to have the highest suicide and divorce rate of any wars we have fought? You who often CLAIM President Reagan as your hero? I highly doubt that President Reagan would EVER have had us in any form of war for years on end like this. I suggest you study ACCURATE history of Reagan! You know that "Peace through Strength" thing! Just like our FOUNDERS also believed! You who would put so many of us down for wanting our troops to come home and know what air conditioning, home cooked meals, real toilets, a real bed, the comforts of their home, and the love, hugs, and  kisses from their children and families feel like again AND PERMANENTLY NOT just for a couple of months, You would call us unpatriotic? You would call us wackos and loons? You would call us Un-Christian? Just who are the delusional ones?!

                         How many of you CLAIMING to be conservative and patriotic find it perfectly acceptable to build and rebuild other countries while ours is falling apart?

                        How many of you CLAIM to be "States Rights" advocates yet are joyous at getting more money via "Race To The Top" (federal money) and with God only knows what strings are attached and are the same ones screaming about the debt? Yes, It ADDS to the debt! And MORE CONTROL over the winning??? states.

                       How many of you who CLAIM to be patriots and conservatives are protesting and some of your R's or D's candidates USE the Founding Fathers as a 'talking point' making a point of smearing and putting down candidates which choose to run as a third party? Not only do you need to do some REAL HOMEWORK on the Founders, Many of us out here would like to know, WHAT ARE YOU REALLY SO AFRAID OF?

                        Never ONCE at all of the Tea Party events I have attended with the SAME politicians, the SAME talk radio personalities, the SAME group activists speakers, (God forbid they would just pick some of "We the People" out and listen to us) EVER touch on the FACT that their very own for the last (at least) decade began this ball rolling and are EQUALLY responsible for the mess we are in. I guess they don't remember President George W. Bush saying that, "We must ABANDON free market principles in order to save them." I guess they don't remember that the very SAME Republicans they are cheering right now are also the same ones that voted along with 'abandoning" free market principles, the very SAME who have aided and abetted our unsustainable debt. The very SAME who accept the big bucks from lobbies, the banksters and special interests. I suppose a saying I heard early on my journey out of the depths of hell still holds true, at least for these alleged patriots and conservatives, "Pain has no memory."

                        So, in closing I ask you who allege to be conservative and patriotic, are YOU  REALLY willing to give ALL of the above goodies up in order to save and restore the Republic? You see the TRUTH is that ALL of us, no matter our social status, political, and economic status will HAVE to give up a great deal. We will ALL need to feel pain in some form or fashion. I NEVER hear this part discussed by the SAME old speakers. No you would rather tear down those of us who REALLY understand what going "back to the basics" of our Founders means. You would rather sabotage good LIBERTY loving candidates that do not pick and choose which parts of the Constitution are okay or not, as so many do these days with the Ten Commandments as well. You would rather SMEAR those who no longer drink the poisonous kool-aid of the 'Two party/One party system!

                           I will ask you one more time, WHAT ARE YOU REALLY AFRAID OF? Our REPUBLIC was NEVER set up, much less formed to have absolute CONTROL of ANY one or two party ONLY system. Do your damned homework! And one more time, IT IS THE DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE NOT, NOT, NOT THE DECLARATION OF THE REPUBLICANS AND DEMOCRATS! YOU who comprise the right/left paradigm BLEW IT!

                          God Bless all of us out there who are caught now in between the extreme far left and the extreme far right. God Bless all of us who are REALLY understanding what being a 'human pinata' feels like. GOD BLESS THE REAL PATRIOTS AND LIBERTY LOVERS out there running as a third party. God Bless you all for your COURAGE! And SHAME on those who can only tear people to pieces instead of TRULY standing on the courage of their convictions! I have but one more question for the alleged patriots and conservatives, which flavor of kool-aid do YOU prefer?

                                     First off every time you hear a politician say "comprehensive" run for your life! In the case of the current health care legislation our very lives are on the line indeed. For those of you out there drinking the "left wing" kool-aid, and for those drinking the "right wing" kool-aid, I've got news for you, BOTH sides are full of it! BOTH sides are playing political games with our health.

                                     Let us start with something that angers me to no end in regard to the far right and republicans. Where in the hell were YOU all of these years? A lack of reasonable cost coupled with quality care is nothing new to so many of us that fall through the cracks with our health issues. YOU repubs had control of everything, but you were too busy being the very same BIG SPENDERS you have always accused the dems of being. You were too busy expanding government in the form of a bigger Dept. of Education via No Child Left Behind. You were too busy getting us into (two) ENDLESS wars. You were too busy with "bridges to nowhere!" You were too busy focusing on "Social Morality" instead of "Economic Morality."  Now, you and those of you who have supported the R's NO MATTER WHAT and those politicians who are running for re-election or seeking to run with an (R) behind your name would have us believe that you will ride in on your "white horses" and "Save the day?"

                                    Then we have the far lefties and democrats who are LYING and or deliberately HIDING the truth, (I do not use the term lying lightly as others do either.)

                                    So, here is what none of them are telling you and that includes the "LAMESTREAM MEDIA!" 1.) EVERYONE by law can receive medical treatment. It is the quality which is in question, (more on that in a bit.) 2.) The accurate number of legitimately uninsured is debatable, I have never heard the same number yet. 3.)  It is a lie that should this piece of cow doo pass that we would ALL be covered. NOT TRUE! Still only a small fraction would be. 4.) Anything that is good about this monster won't even take effect for several more years! 5.) Still many of us WILL continue to fall through the cracks. 6.) What about our high cost of prescription drugs? NO talk of that either, (again I'll answer that in a sec.)

                                      This 2000 plus page bill is about nothing more than EXPANSION of the powers in Washington. It is about MORE CONTROL over "We the People." The very poor, elderly, criminals, and the very wealthy are already covered! It is those of us who are everyday working Americans and small businesses who pay for all of the above and have NOTHING for ourselves. We are the ones falling in the cracks!! Trust me I am one of them!

                                       The politicians along with help from media would have everyone believing that people are "dying in the gutters" across the country, NOT TRUE! You can walk into any emergency room in this country and walk out WITHOUT paying your damn bill, especially ILLEGAL ALIENS, while folks like me will be hunted down and sued for it. What they REALLY want is to put us all on Medicaid which, is the equivalent of (third class health treatment.) Just ask someone who has been through it how much differently they are treated, or the family members of patients who have been sent home too early and end up dying because of it. Trust me THIS DOES HAPPEN!

                                         Then even if this was a good bill it WILL NOT take effect for four to six years. So what good does that do anyone anyway? But, we HAVE to begin paying for it NOW? How many of you would pay car payments for a car you cannot have or drive for six years?  How many of you would make payments on a house you could not live in? If you would you are a fool!  This is why health insurance premiums and cost of care will GO UP. Why? Remember the brilliant "charge card reform?" You know the one that would not take affect until just now. The one that made absolutely sure to raise our interest rates ala the style of loan sharks, so that ALL of them the R's and the D's could take care of their banker buddies.

                                        Why is there NOTHING to allow us IMMEDIATELY to have prescription drug costs lowered for those of us who fall through the cracks, aka working poor? The answer; LOBBYISTS of course! Here again BOTH SIDES!

                                         Then, we hear the rhetoric that well, this will ONLY save a few billion, or that will ONLY save several million, etc. Well guess what Congress, IT ADDS UP! When is the last time you had to tighten your household budget belt so tight you could hardly breathe?  I would also like to know what happened to the "promise" that we would "Have the same health care as Congress?" Mmmm I CAN"T HEAR YOU!

                                        In closing, those of us with "common sense" understand clearly that what needs to be addressed is BOTH quality coupled with cost reduction. Both doable if Congress would concern itself LESS with lobbyists and MORE with "We the People."  Not a massive comprehensive overhaul which only rewards the unions, the insurance companies, big Pharma, and stock holders of health related products. "We the People" and many, many of our doctors all over the country understand what needs to be done and there are marvelous ideas out there. There are several on our Congressional web site and many more I have read about. But if anyone thinks that republicans will not be equally as guilty as democrats if this bill passes, think again. I DON'T TRUST ANY OF THEM! AND NEITHER SHOULD YOU! The time is NOW to start voting for "citizen candidates," for third party candidates. NOT for the "nickel or five pennies," and NOT for "the lesser of two evils."
