Change Not Always a Good Thing by Dr. T

The White House and Congress are falling apart before our eyes. Anyone with a brain larger than Joe Biden's can see the chaos they have created and how unsustainable their policies are. Economists are now throwing spending figures around to the tune of 24 trillion dollars. Funny how if you say trillion long enough it just becomes commonplace...besides, who can wrap their minds around that many zeros??? Each and every policy put forth is punitive...higher taxes, fees and surcharges, scapegoating the rich and undermining business, these measures don't help the population. They hurt it. We are experiencing a soft tyranny that must be stopped if we can ever hope to put America back on the right track. Billions have been spent with promises of unemployment capping at 8%...we are now in double digits in some parts of the Country. Small businesses are closing in record numbers as the tax burden becomes unbearable. Simply printing money is not the answer. Economics 101 works every time...lowering taxes across the board, including capital gains, will free up money and the economy will flourish. Congress and the White House know this yet they refuse to take the right steps. I can only come to one conclusion...they are hellbent on destroying the country to keep their power. Disgraceful and disgusting. Wake up America, even our socialized neighbors, England and Canada concede that we are on a fateful path. Nationalized health care is the next big push, with the President constantly carping that we have a broken system. We have a broken social security system, a broken medicare/medicaid system, and a broken IRS system just to name a few...all run by the government. And now we are supposed to believe that they can oversee 1/3 of the nation's economy??? I have one question, will Ted Kennedy and all the rest of the "chosen" submit themselves and their families to the same rationed care they are trying to ram down our collective throats? I think not...and if they won't sign up, either will I. I'm looking for legal representation that will invoke a "class action" against the government if the citizens are forced to sign on to a nationalized plan. Do I have any takers? I watched the President's news conference on health care and I don't have any more specifics now than I had before his conference. It was the usual smoke and mirrors, and huge generalizations. Those who have seen the actual plan know that our health records will be on file in Washington and some bureaucrats rather than our doctors will determine when and if we can have care. If this is your idea of reform, have at it...I'll pass, thank you.
