Questions about Obamacare

I am pleased about so many things these days. You may say there isn't a whole lot to be happy about but I beg to differ. I have often said, "When are people going to get angry? When will people say enough is enough? How bad does it have to get?"

I got my answer earlier this year when I attended the April 15th TEA party in Worcester. That was where it started. Now we are seeing angry citizens protesting and getting in the faces of Representatives and Senators in Town Hall meetings all over the country. I was afraid the momentum may be lost after April 15th. I had nothing to worry about.

The current focus seems to be on Healthcare or what is known as Obamacare at these town hall meetings. I don't believe it's just about healthcare. Since Obama has spent $787 billion in bailouts and the T.A.R.P. program and the omnibus and now to spend another "really large" amount of money for healthcare is way too much. Somebody has to pay for it and it will be in taxes imposed on the citizenry. In my opinion, the citizens should be the last place you look.

Here's a couple of issues that nobody has brought up yet.

Let's say the bill passes but it is much less intrusive and costly than it is now. It is "acceptable" to the Republicans (not that they are any better than anyone else). Everybody is much more comfortable with it. Whatever that may be. What's to say it isn't going to be amended and added to in the future?

We know that nothing ever stays the same. When the income tax was passed in 1913 it was 1% on everything over $250k. That doesn't sound bad does it? It doesn't even affect me. I wouldn't complain about it. What has happened over the years? It has gotten amended and changed and added to.

If healthcare passes, no matter how "not that bad" it is, you can be assured it will get worse.

Also, when a government agency is created it never goes away no matter how bad or broke it is. They just keep throwing money at it. If it gets passed, it's permanent.

Once a citizen gets "on the dole" it is very difficult to get them off of it. People become dependent on the free cheese. Take a look at social security, medicare and unemployment. Once people are on these they will take it as long as they can get it. They will also vote for whoever will keep the spigot on and flowing freely.

You can rest assured that once it passes, it will not go away.

In a way I was happy when Obama got elected. I thought, maybe people will get fed up. I was right. If healthcare get's rammed down our throats...... Are you ready for this?

The Voice of Truth

The Voice of Truth

by Casting Crowns

August 7, 2009 at 12:39 am

Oh,what I would do to have
the kind of faith it takes
To climb out of this boat I'm in
Onto the crashing waves
To step out of my comfort zone
Into the realm of the unknown
Where Jesus is,
And he's holding out his hand

But the waves are calling out my name
and they laugh at me
Reminding me of all the times
I've tried before and failed
The waves they keep on telling me
time and time again
"Boy, you'll never win,
you'll never win."

But the Voice of truth tells me a different story
the Voice of truth says "do not be afraid!"
and the Voice of truth says "this is for My glory"
Out of all the voices calling out to me
I will choose to listen and believe the Voice of truth

Oh, what I would do
to have the kind of strength it takes
To stand before a giant
with just a sling and a stone
Surrounded by the sound
of a thousand warriors
shaking in their armor
Wishing they'd have had the strength to stand

But the giant's calling out
my name and he laughs at me
Reminding me of all the times
I've tried before and failed
The giant keeps on telling me
time and time again
"Boy you'll never win,
you'll never win."

But the voice of truth tells me a different story
the Voice of truth says "do not be afraid!"
and the Voice of truth says "this is for My glory"
Out of all the voices calling out to me
I will choose to listen and believe the Voice of truth

But the stone was just the right size
to put the giant on the ground
and the waves they don't seem so high
from on top of them looking down
I will soar with the wings of eagles
when I stop and listen to the sound of Jesus
singing over me

But the Voice of truth tells me a different story
The Voice of truth says "do not be afraid!"
And the Voice of truth says "this is for my glory"
Out of all the voices calling out to me (calling out to me)
I will choose to listen and believe (I will choose to listen and believe)
I will choose to listen and believe the Voice of truth

I will listen and believe
I will listen and believe the Voice of truth
I will listen and believe
'Cause Jesus you are the Voice of truth
And I will listen to you.. oh you are the Voice of truth

Some Thoughts about Gov't Healthy Care

Some of "my" (borrowed) thoughts about gov't health care

August 1, 2009 at 12:18 pm

"If you have the right to give at all; and as the Constitution neither defines charity nor stipulates the amount, you are at liberty to give to any and everything which you may believe, or profess to believe, is a charity and to any amount you may think proper. You will very easily perceive what a wide door this would open for fraud and corruption and favoritism, on the one hand, and for robbing the people on the other. 'No, Colonel, Congress has no right to give charity."

The above is an excerpt from "Not Yours to Give", by Colonel David Crockett. You can read it in its entirety @ http://notyourstogive.com/ (and I strongly urge you to read it! It's not very long)

The US Government has a history of taking money from the people (that it has no business taking) and spending it on things that it has no business being involved in. Everything the gov't touches destroys lives, makes us poorer, takes away our freedoms, and makes government bigger and more powerful.

A friend recently shared this quote, and I think it fits right in:

"You cannot legislate the poor into freedom by legislating the wealthy out of freedom. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friend, is about the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it."
