Health Care Crisis
What is government trying to pass? This is a question that far too few Americans know the answer to, but it is life changing. The government, Nancy Pelosi specifically, is once again trying to muscle through the House and Senate a monster of a bill without giving legislators, much less the public, enough time to read and understand it. This bill, if passed in its current state, will add millions in tax increases, cut coverage, and cause several small businesses to close. Instead of helping, this bill will continue to take America down the wrong path, a path that will eventually lead to the destruction of this country.
The passage of the health care bill and the continued declining state of our economy is quickly changing from a partisan issue to a survival issue. With the unemployment rate at an all time high, as well as the national debt, how can we expect to even remain standing, much less prosper. The sad reality is that we will not. Unless there is a drastic change in the way the government is leading this country, failure is inevitable.
One of the most amazing aspects of the health care bill, and its possible passage, is the fact that so many Americans are clueless as to what it contains and what the effects will be. There are so many who naively believe that it will not affect them. They are wrong. This piece of legislation will have an effect on every American. If you have existing coverage through a private Insurance company, that will be taken away in a matter of years. Once all of the insurance companies have folded, everyone will be funneled into the massive government health plan, better known as universal health care.
It is more important now, than ever before, to STAND UP for our freedom and prosperity. All of these elected officials that have the power to change our country are just that, elected officials. They were elected by the citizens of this country to represent the interests of this country. Many of them, however, would rather go along for the ride (so to speak) rather than STAND UP for what is right. Afraid of being seen as unpopular in the eyes of their colleagues, they cave to the pressure. It is our opportunity, right now, to give them a wake up call. If we, as Americans, will start contacting our elected officials and expressing our concerns, we can make a difference. Let them know that if they continue to pass foolish legislation that harms our country, they will not be reelected. This is FREEDOM in action, the people of this nation still posses the power, we just have to STAND UP and use it.
