Kiss Your Freedoms Goodbye If Health Care Passes

Kiss Your Freedoms Goodbye If Health Care Passes
by Andrew Napolitano

Congress recognizes no limits on its power. It doesn't care about the Constitution, it doesn't care about your inalienable rights. If this health care bill becomes law, America, life as you have known it, freedom as you have exercised it and privacy as you have enjoyed it will cease to be.

Tomorrow, the House of Representatives will vote on a 2,000 page bill to give the federal government the power to micromanage the health care of every single American. The bill will no doubt pass. It will raise your taxes, steal your freedom, invade your privacy, and ration your health care. Even the Republicans have introduced their version of Obamacare Lite. It, too, if passed, will compel employers to provide coverage, bribe the states to change their court rules, and tell insurance companies whom to insure.

We do not have two political parties in this country, America. We have one party; called the Big Government Party. The Republican wing likes deficits, war, and assaults on civil liberties. The Democratic wing likes wealth transfer, taxes, and assaults on commercial liberties. Both parties like power; and neither is interested in your freedoms. Think about it. Government is the negation of freedom. Freedom is your power and ability to follow your own free will and your own conscience. The government wants you to follow the will of some faceless bureaucrat.

When I recently asked Congressman James Clyburn, the third ranking Democrat in the House, to tell me "Where in the Constitution the federal government is authorized to regulate everyone's healthcare--, he replied that most of what Congress does is not authorized by the Constitution, but they do it anyway. There you have it. Congress recognizes no limits on its power. It doesn't care about the Constitution, it doesn't care about your inalienable rights, it doesn't care about the liberties protected by the Bill of Rights, it doesn't even read the laws it writes.

We have already kissed our freedom goodbye.

On one end of the road is freedom. On the other end is tyranny (total subjugation). We are, on the quick, marching away from freedom toward total government, totalitarianism. Each new law our rulers write moves us further along the road of plunder and control.

It is almost funny to hear the proponents of government health care brag that the Democratic Party brought us Social Security and Medicare. They forget to mention that both Social Security and Medicare are bankrupt and will cause unmentionable suffering as the rug gets pulled out from under the elderly, now dependent on these government run businesses. Government has the midas touch in reverse, destroying everything they touch.

Oh well! Some believe, the population is already too large for the earth to support, so consider that when you die from government "health care" that you are being sacrificed for someone else's idea of a worthy cause.

How much more before enough is enough?

i hope by miracle this does

i hope by miracle this does not pass....please lord.

Oh, That's right, that is why I

want to see heads rolling today.
I am usually pretty much into peace, but if someone would show me a Rothschild or Rockefeller being treated to some New American Justice, I think I would cook up some popcorn and watch. Over and over.

Not much

we can do to stop them, they do what they are told by the banksters.
