Obama: take a look; England may decentralizing health care?

Yikes, Great Britain has finally realized that, in health care at least, centralized, socialism of health care is cumbersome and costly to the government and to the citizens in loss of care. Britain may decentralize health care. Britain Plans to Decentralize Health Care. Maybe, as in politics "all politics is local", all medical care needs to be local giving doctors and patients a chance to determine their care. From the article by Sarah Lyall,

Practical details of the plan are still sketchy. But its aim is clear: to shift control of England’s $160 billion annual health budget from a centralized bureaucracy to doctors at the local level. Under the plan, $100 billion to $125 billion a year would be meted out to general practitioners, who would use the money to buy services from hospitals and other health care providers.

Let's hope that socialism will be on the reverse and Americans will see a lessening of regulations designed to control our lives from cradle to grave and designed under Obama Non-care to push us into early graves. Keep in mind that when the government using tax dollar "pays for your health care", that same benevolent government has nothing by keeping you alive. It seems our health and our health care are up to us. And from Lyall,

The plan would also shrink the bureaucratic apparatus, in keeping with the government’s goal to effect $30 billion in “efficiency savings” in the health budget by 2014 and to reduce administrative costs by 45 percent. Tens of thousands of jobs would be lost because layers of bureaucracy would be abolished.

Jobs lost but they are government created jobs, not jobs created by the private sector. As I see it, in America today we need to stop "bleeding jobs" like we've sliced an artery and turn to the private sector what is left of it so that jobs can be created maybe giving us a chance. When the government swells and becomes bloated there is plenty of room for abuse of power and corruption. Those who would be king look to increasing their power by increasing the number of jobs/people who report to them. God bless America and for the health of our nation, 2012 is not long away but enough to make the reversal of our rush to Marxist Socialism a challenging task. It has happened so quickly that the current Administration is behaving like a soft tyranny. We don't need thousand page bills with the details to be filled in later. We need less legislation and fewer regulations over our daily lives. As Rush Limbaugh mentioned a few days ago, our fellow citizens who voted Obama into office need to apologize to the rest of us for this creeping dictatorship, systemic racism within the Administration, and such. Let's see what happens as European Socialism falls in upon itself...

Harry Reid's lumps of coal for Americans this Christmas

Wrapped in a glossy bow, sure to fool us all, is Harry Reid's and Nancy Pelosi's and Mr. Obama's Christmas or Holiday gift for the American people: a lump of coal in every stocking and the end of the last visages of freedom as we have known it.

Three grinches flexing their muscles stole Christmas for Americans and turned perhaps once honorable men such as Senator Ben Nelson from Nebraska and others into something like traitors. Maybe cowards. Or maybe they could not hold up under the torture that grabbed them in a death grip. Sorry, the only ones free from torture in America are Islamic fundamentalist terrorists who SAY they want to kill us, unlike our Congress who just legislates their will.

Senator Ben Nelson is a pathetic man, his honor stripped away. I'm sure he can sleep well because - FOR HIS VOTE - he bargained away Nebraska's responsibilities for paying for the un-mandated Medicaid costs for NE and transferred that cost to the rest of us.

The link to see how each Senator voted on cloture, the vote to end debate on the Reid Amendment is HERE.

Americans get lumps of coal for Christmas and the nation moves inexorably toward Marxism. You can lighten it up and call it Socialism but that is not the case.

EVERY medical record you have is being placed in a national database. This activity has been going on for several years now. This is fact.

31,000,000 legal American citizens will now have access to "AFFORDABLE" health care. That means they will have to purchase it as a mandate from the Congress of the United States. Even King George III was not so diabolical.

AND when the Demons in control of the House and Senate get busy in what remains of their reign in 2010, 12,000,000 to 20,000,000 illegal immigrants - as newly minted citizens - will have "ACCESS" to affordable health care POLICIES.

The Democratic Draconian Goons have a great plan for FREEDOM. You are forced to buy an "affordable" health care policy that you may not want and if you don't, you'll be fined.

How's this CHANGE working for you across middle America? How ya doin' Iowa?

It looks to me, one woman's opinion, that that Seniors Group - you know who I mean - made a deal with the devil and they have now turned into pimps or leg-men for insurance companies 'cause you can at least speculate that they'll get a kick-back for every policy sold through them.

Yes, as one Demon Senator said yesterday, "We're going to stick it to the insurance companies... Their CEOs won't be getting those fat salaries and 80% of each dollar they collect in premiums MUST be spent on "health care..." I think that was in essence something Senator Bill Nelson of Florida said with glee. Not a direct quotation.

And you don't think health care cost will go up.

You don't think the Obama Administration is a friend of the big insurance companies? Hmm... He's throwing 31,000,000 new clients their way and forcing American citizens to purchase "affordable" health care.

What a monopoly! And it is mandated by the federal government. Not to mention the unfunded mandate for the States - all except Senator Ben Nelson's Nebraska that gets a free ride at OUR expense - which will increase medical costs.

Yep, lumps of coal for us and mandated - that is DICTATED - orders to purchase something we may not want.

Dictated taxes, fees, and government forced purchases of "affordable" health care. All this when 60+% of Americans don't want these changes. Oh, and finds if you don't comply. Can anyone say, 'THE GOVERNMENT IS STEALING FROM US." Or how about - TYRANNY!

Sayonara Freedom! Americans get bags of switches and lumps of coal for Christmas...and dictated "affordable" health care policy costs.

And you say those insurance folks didn't strike a deal with the Grinches who stole Christmas?

Looking sweet, yep pretty sweet for the Grinches who stole health care and are gonna throw Grandma under Santa's reindeer...and young folks in jail if they don't buy one of the dictated "health care" policies.

Anybody seen the U.S. Constitution lately?

Obama's Progressive Reign of Tyranny over America

This afternoon I was watching some of the "debate" on Harry Reid's 343 page amendment to the 2,074 page so-called Health Care Bill.

Dr. Tom Coburn, a Senator and a practicing medical doctor, was speaking. He put up a quotation from Thomas Jefferson. I may have copied the quotation down incorrectly regarding the order of the wording but the essence is clear.

Compelling a man to propagate with his taxes ideas in which he does not believe and abhors is sinful and tyrannical. ~ Thomas Jefferson

To compel a man to furnish funds for the propagation of ideas he disbelieves and abhors is sinful and tyrannical. from Thomas Jefferson

How many things, situations, or conditions (regulations/dictates) have been put into play by the current Administration since January 20th when Mr. Obama became our president that are sinful, tyrannical, and well beyond the bounds of the U.S. Constitution?

Was the government to prescribe to us our medicine and diet, our bodies would be in such keeping as our souls are now. ~ Thomas Jefferson

Our nation is in grave danger. We all know it and yet the extreme, fundamentalist Democrat leadership on Capital Hill and in the White House seem driven to destroy our way of life. Our way of free enterprise; of turning our inherent individual freedom into group domination over the individual; of turning individual responsibility and personal accountability into total governmental domination and control over our every move from cradle to grave.

Decades ago, I half-heartily quipped to a colleague that a day would come in America when the federal government would decide how much money we would be allowed to keep of what we had earned and we would no longer have freedom. We would be "wards" of the state.

I never really believed I would live to see that day in America.

One more issue about the yoke of slavery pervasive in "Health Care" reform along with the billions of dollars in grant money to train nurses in accordance with government curriculum. Why all the frenzy to "get it done and get it done now?" Because they have more in store for us. Citizenship for illegal immigrants.

With all of the financial numbers that are being floated around, how much do you think the health care will really cost when Obama, Pelosi, and Reid legalize and give citizenship to the 12,000,000 to 20,000,000 illegal immigrants who are here in 2010? Don't forget to add in their extended families.

Let's just annex Mexico... It can't be anymore corrupt there than it is here under unconstitutional Thugocracy and the tyranny of the czars.

A few more quotations from Thomas Jefferson:

I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them.

An elective despotism was not the government we fought for.

A free people [claim] their rights as derived from the laws of nature, and not as the gift of their chief magistrate.

It is strangely absurd to suppose that a million of human beings, collected together, are not under the same moral laws which bind each of them separately.

The democracy will cease to exist when you take away from those who are willing to work and give to those who would not.

Most bad government has grown out of too much government.

I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just.

The two enemies of the people are criminals and government, so let us tie the second down with the chains of the Constitution so the second will not become the legalized version of the first.

Were we directed from Washington when to sow and when to reap, we should soon want bread.

The god who gave us life, gave us liberty at the same time: the hand of force may destroy, but cannot disjoin them.

Of liberty I would say that, in the whole plenitude of its extent, it is unobstructed action according to our will. But rightful liberty is unobstructed action according to our will within limits drawn around us by the equal rights of others. I do not add “within the limits of the law,” because law is often but the tyrant’s will, and always so when it violates the right of an individual.

When the people fear their government, there is tyranny; when the government fears the people, there is liberty.

The beauty of the Second Amendment is that it will not be needed until they try to take it.

The price of freedom is eternal vigilance.

We must be ever vigilant. And now it seems even more so. As I mentioned in a post yesterday and, misguided as I may be, I stand by it:

I am an incurable optimist when it comes to the American people generally speaking. We are not into European Socialism; we are not communists; and we are not born to become socialists. It is not in our DNA.

I'm just saying, we are Americans and we have to man-up and solve our problems. We cannot allow our elite - in their own minds - to pull the rug of our U.S. Constitution and our freedoms right out from under us. We have to become engaged and we have to become educated. We must become an informed citizenry.

If we do not take our destiny into our own hands, we will increasingly leave ourselves open to the slavery that awaits us.

And in the midst of all of this jack-booted pressure being placed upon our necks, Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays. Take care of your loved ones and God bless...

Obama health care nightmare sacked by the Chinese?

Yes, it is true. The Red Chinese may in fact "save" us from the horrors of Pelosi's and the radicalized extremist Democrats "health care/death panels". How?

By taking Obama to the woodshed to chastise him on the outrageous spending and taxing he plans to bring down upon us. Democrats at the highest levels just do not seem to understand that more and more taxation will stifle job creation and will shut down our economy. Their programs will cripple us, bring us to our knees, and perhaps under the yoke of the United Nations. Of course, some might think that is their goal anyway.

The one thing the Communist Chinese have learned well about capitalism is that they too must protect their investment in the United States, their ownership of our debts.

Wouldn't that be rather ironic if we, the American people, are saved from the massive burden of more debt under Obama by the Chinese?

Or maybe they'll just tell him to slow down a little in forcing us under the yoke of servitude. I wonder which "servitude" the administration has in mind: submission to Islam or submission in the Chinese model.

Sanctuary States - Yeehaw for the mighty Texas

Sanctuary Cities defy federal laws regarding the enforcement of laws pertaining to illegal aliens. It is my understanding that Texas may not enforce the hideous Obama Rationed Racist Health Care/Ethnic Cleansing Act if it gets signed into law. If arrogant San Francisco can defy federal immigration laws, certainly a State, exercising its State's Rights can refuse to enforce heinous federal laws that ultimately, among other things, result in financial burdens upon the States. I am a "right-wing extremist" as designated by Janet "man-made events" Napolitano and I'm proud of that because I am an adherent of the U.S. Constitution and I believe that the Founders clearly stated the responsibilities of the federal government. That government has consistently and tirelessly expanded federal power over every aspect of our lives. That theft of power is in violation of the U.S. Constitution and of their oath of office. So, more power to Texas, the Republic of Texas, which many may not know but upon becoming a state of the Union in 1845 (?), Texas' Constitution includes a right to leave the Union. State Legislatures are a thing of the past and the legislators need to decide whether they represent us or whether the States are simply chattel under the heavy arm of the Federal Executive. The Congress - House and Senate - of the federal government is fast becoming a place for many folks who are simply GS employees under the control of the Executive. We the people have gone long enough without representation...over the previous 16+ years.

Obama Health Care, Amnesty, and American Sovereignty

The following is from Brittanicus:

From the beginning its been previous administrations ultimate fault that illegal immigration has never been retired. Years of neglect and intentional overlooking of the laws that were in place? It's grandiose excuse to allow the 20 million plus illegal immigrants to stay on American soil. Congress when enacted the Immigration Reform and Control Act (IRCA) of 1986 has been flagrantly ignored. The IRCA toughened criminal sanctions for employers who hired illegal aliens, denied illegal aliens federally funded welfare benefits, and legitimized some aliens through an amnesty program–EXCEPT THESE LAWS NEVER WERE ENFORCED? There has always been complicity since the earliest days, between the lawmakers, big business, the open border zealots and radical pro-immigration and anti-American sovereignty organizations. Just like the Globalist they have an attitude that American taxpayers should accommodate every illegal family, with free medical care, schooling and a comfortable prison cell, for criminals and for the thousands of illegal alien drunken drivers every year. That globalist agenda has always been a free movement of cheap labor, between all of South America, Canada and Mexico, just as secretly arranged with the 3 countries leaders in Waco, Texas, at the end of March 2005.  Americans only forceful action is to build on E-verify, but not to replace it? Sen. Charles Schumer, D-New York and chairman of the Senate Judiciary subcommittee on immigration wants consider up-grading the application, with modifications to authenticate the employee’s identity by using a specific and unique biometric identifiers? Schumer, stated "improving employment verification is critical to boosting public confidence about curbing illegal immigration, which will build support for comprehensive immigration reform." These politicians just don't get it? Outside of the American Civil War, there will be a battle over giving illegal immigrants a path to citizenship free-ride? What about the millions of people with integrity and believe in the Rule of Law, who sit and wait in far off foreign countries for an entry visa? Whatever the outcome it will not be easy to pass any Immigration reform or AMNESTY? Say--NO-- because it going to cost trillions of dollars (with a T) in enactment. Health care, Pensions, retirement and a rush on government benefits, for those who haven't already cheated the system. Then they will want their immediate families here? And waiting millions will swarm the open areas of the sovereign border fence? IT WILL NEVER END? Call your Politician today at 202-224-3121 GOOGLE---NUMBERSUSA, AMERICANPATROL for facts, that will not be found in most press releases. As a Independent voter, I do believe in a alternative government medical system, but I adamantly disagree on donating my taxes from public treasuries free health care to anybody who steals across our border or anything that smells of AMNESTY?
