Proposed Health Care Plan

Prayers and best wishes for your mom, and entire family.

I read the most important words there as "she has decided." Whether she decided all on her own, or she discussed it with her doctor(s) and her kids, she took the responsibility to make that decision for herself. And that's what I advocate moreso than a government mandate.

But at what point does the refusal to take personal responsibility drive the consideration for someone else to push you along to make that decision? Even if I concede the higher power granting of free will, I still believe your free will ends where mine begins.

If a person can't work and can't take care of himself, who will? Family, church? If available, capable and willing. But otherwise the government will. Or nobody will. If there's no hope for me, pull my plug. I'm nobody's burden but my own.

Thanks man. My intention was not to drop that on the board... but it's on my mind. It informs my thoughts right now.

I agree with you on all of your points as far as personal choice goes and even the line between one's freedoms and another's.

And I guess I am ok with Medicaid. But that's where it ends for me.

What I disagree about is that HR676 will provide anything other than government intrusion into what should be a personal decision. I guess that as a society, I suppose we should provide for our elders. I will accept a 10% tax rate so that our elders can receive whatever care that they choose. I will not accept a tax rate of 40% because some folks won't work. I see this as one more slippery slope toward socialism.

The older I get the more I understand why government must be kept small.

If you would like to report Citizens who oppose the administration, you may do so at Flag@WhiteHouse.Gov. That way the adminstration can monitor and prevent free speech on the subjects that are important to them.

While you were reading that post, how many people were issued "citations" from red light cameras?

Should I report myself? Ot should I just wait for one of the Libertards to do it for me?

I think that the real question becomes when will we take our country back, not how can we pay for the greater good by eliminating the weak, old and infirmed.


God Dam I wish more people had studied Nazi Germany so we didn't have to go down the same freaking road again.

I was going to ask if it was copied right from Mein Kamp.

My dad worked 23 years for the US military, and 20+ years for the VA, to be sure he can get health care for him and my mom. He deserves to live as long as HE sees fit.

If someone doesn't want to live, eat a bullet.
