I object to the assumption that I am responsible for anyone's medical care other than my own.<br /><br />Further, the real reason to oppose Obamacare has nothing to do with costs. Even if the federal government could provide medical care more effectively, more efficiently, and less expensively than the private sector (which it cannot) it is still wrong because doing so transforms us from free citizens to wards of the state.<br /><br />I find that whole concept repulsive. If the government becomes our health care provider, then we all are dependents. Or maybe you prefer the term serf.<br /><br />That is the inevitable result of redefining "right" to include goods and services taken from others.Steve Skubinnanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32278169577563552.post-20028062461858469862009-08-08T14:32:44.612-04:002009-08-08T14:32:44.612-04:00Hell yes there's a lot of misinformation out t...Hell yes there's a lot of misinformation out there--starting with the fact that it has anything to do with health, care, quality of service or insurance.<br /><br />Not a single member of Congress could provide any valuable assistance in the maintenance of your own health. Not because of incompetence, but because the scope is so great and the detail so complicated, no single human intellect is capable of understanding all the permutations, much less "regulate" them to the benefit of every single individual.<br /><br />To put it in the simplest possible terms: for the vast majority of people in this country, the federal government is taking a big chunk of tax money, and giving back smaller pieces of it. That's it. There is no other benefit. It doesn't even have a delay (before you have to eat dog food and shut off the furnace in the winter) like Social Security. You pay right now to get your money filtered through the fe'ral gov't. It's the Mr. Tea of social programs.TJPnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32278169577563552.post-80391639717188805872009-08-07T12:51:03.100-04:002009-08-07T12:51:03.100-04:00Willing being "flagged" by the Obama Adm...Willing being "flagged" by the Obama Administration carry the same mark of distinction as Hollywood execs being called before HUAC?<br /><br />Shootin' BuddyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32278169577563552.post-9476223297017824312009-08-06T23:29:42.359-04:002009-08-06T23:29:42.359-04:00I am simply getting tired of hearing from those th...I am simply getting tired of hearing from those that have subsidized health care (under the guise of employer paid health benefits, Medicare, VA, Medicaid) bitching about "socialized medicine"<br /><br />I am self employed and I have to pay $7,000 every year in health insurance.

The first two are choices, the third is an accident. We should not be paying for choices, esspecially when it comes to abortion (whether you gree with it or not), vasectomies, plastic surgeries, etc. or in the majority of cases obesity (lifestyle choice - I do believe that there are some people who just can't lose weight no matter what they do). It pisses me off no end that abortions are readily covered under my insurance plan regardless of number but we had to fight to get my wife's followup mammogram covered.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32278169577563552.post-39268162455222873712009-08-06T12:19:22.439-04:002009-08-06T12:19:22.439-04:00AmenAmenStarik Igolkinnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32278169577563552.post-89870533588211372562009-08-06T12:16:04.370-04:002009-08-06T12:16:04.370-04:00Very well done, Breda.
