Enough is enough already. Why are people sitting back allowing the government to control their lives? How many people are aware if this healthcare program does pass we will all have to pay either way. Anyone who believes he or she is free to make a choice needs to sit back and listen a little closer to what is being said about the new healthcare bill. How many are aware if they do not have insurance; there will be fines in place for everyone who does not have healthcare. “We the people,” would receive fines up to $3800 for failing to buy insurance under the new healthcare program if it would pass.

 

Fines and penalties (para. 31) at

People do not receive fines for not having auto insurance unless they drive without it and are stopped. If people do not purchase auto insurance, our driving privileges and tags are suspended from driving our own automobiles, we can drive other insured vehicles, not our own. The healthcare bill does not give people a choice. People will have this insurance or else according to the government. What the hell is that?

 

Is this some government plan to force every man, women and child to have a required physical once a year because the government says so? The way things are going, I would not be at all surprised if that is going to be a requirement. Will they require people to have shots they would not have otherwise? Maybe this all seems like a bad movie to many but consider this. If the government requires people to be in the healthcare program, they are taking away our right to choose. Even though we have not heard anything about mandatory physicals, and testing consider for a minute the possibility that it could happen. This would be a perfect setup to imbed chips into each man, woman, and child’s body without anyone having any knowledge it happened. There must be a reason for this big push, and for it to be happening as quickly as it is.

 

I absolutely refuse to get the flu shot for that reason. I do not know what shot they are really giving me, and I trust no one. I refuse tetanus shots, and have since I was old enough to decide for myself, and I will continue to do so. I have never had a flu shot, I have only been to the hospital for surgery twice (knee and tonsils), stitches once (which I removed myself so I did not get charged the hospital fee to have them removed), and to give birth three times. I have been to the family doctor throughout my adult life a total of nine-times for swimmers ear, and a sore throat I thought might have been strep, but was not anything more than a sore throat. I no longer go for stitches I butterfly serious cuts with tape, and let them heal on their own. I battle colds and the flu on my own without any over the counter medication. My husband asks me all the time how I can do it without taking anything? I believe nothing will work, that a cold and flu have to take its own course.

 

Prenatal care is a joke. For centuries, women were with child without constant prenatal care visits, and prenatal vitamins until time to give birth. Yes, there were sometimes complications, and there are complications even today, but I firmly believe the whole child baring process is a money making scam because women could go for an initial visit, and only return as needed, not once a month, or once a week. Centuries ago, mothers and fathers eagerly waited to find out the sex of a child, now practically everyone wants to know the sex of their child before the child arrives, unnecessary costs to the medical system. When I gave birth there was no such thing as a birthing room, a woman went to the operating room, gave birth, the child was placed in the nursery, the woman was placed in a room with other mothers, and within 3 days mothers were sent home. Now a-days women give birth in private birthing rooms, that are setup like fancy motel rooms with telephones, color television, private bathrooms, and a special sleeping chair for guests, which increases the costs of medical care.

 

My ancestors did not have all the rules and guidelines people have today, and my ancestors have lived to be in their 90s and even to the age of 100. Some were obese, but healthy, and happy. My ancestors smoked, drank, gave birth to their children at home without modern medical technology, they drank well water that had no chemicals, or water treatment. They used outhouses, and hung their clothes out to dry. They drank milk straight from the goat and cow. They churned their own butter, and butchered their own meat, raised chickens, and ate the eggs, and they lived longer without government control than people live today with all the government control.

 

When things are crammed down my throat and I am threatened with death or fines because of the choices I make, I will avoid doing things because someone else says I should. I am not going to be told what I have to, and should do. I am my own person and I have a right to do with my body as I see fit, not what others believe is best. Some may think I have a wild imagination, but I do not feel that way. I do not put anything past the government. They are using brainwashing, and scare tactics to trick people into believing things are worse than things are. I had heard a report somewhere, where chips are placed in people for medical reasons, all doctors, and hospitals have to do is simply scan the individuals’ arm, which retrieves all medical information about the individual. This is a scary thought because it proves anything is possible, why on earth; would anyone agree to chips implanted inside their body?

 

What must our elders be thinking? Our elders must be afraid of everything they are witnessing, and sadly, our elders are vulnerable because doctors and agencies can talk them into almost, anything having them believe it is for their own good. Don’t believe me? Read about the chips at

If people could just accept who they are and age naturally without implants, facelifts, reconstructive surgery, medical costs would decline. If people would stop going to the doctor for every damn sneeze, and sniffle and just dealt with the common cold instead of believing he or she has some damn crazy disease they read, or hear about in a news-report the costs of medical care would decline. Stop buying into the hype, and live normal lives.

 

I am not an activist and I do not usually open my mouth about things, but I am fed up with the BS coming out of ....Washington..... They need to leave people alone, and let people live their own lives as people wish to live them. Every time they open their mouths’ it costs people money. All of it is sci-fi becoming reality in my opinion. Employers telling people they cannot work unless they get this shot, or that shot, they cannot work unless they give up habits they have outside the workplace. Who in the hell are these people? I did not elect these people to be my mother, and father, I grew to be an adult, looking forward to making the right and wrong decisions throughout life, only to controlled by men, and women who think they have more power than what I voted for them to do.

 

Everything happening right now makes me think of the “Left Behind,” movie. How many remember the movie? I am not saying that is the case, but it is looking more and more like people will be left behind, or locked up because they do not go along with the government program.

 

This healthcare process is nothing more then a money making scam to suck every last cent men, women, and children have left. People have too much money, whether they have one dollar or a million dollars, they have too much. The government wants it all. Something is fishy about the entire program. I remember Barack Obama saying lobbyists have no place in ....Washington...., want to bet? Do I regret my choice? YOU BET I DO! Deceit, Oh, my the deceit and the lies. Every day I regret my choice.

 

....America.... is in debt. A debt, which could have been contained, had the government chose a different avenue for the stimulus money. After all it will be the people, and their children paying for it for the rest of their lives, so why is it the government did not disperse money to every household in this country, which would have turned this economy around more rapidly. No, all the American people were entitle to was a measly $300, but the crooks that put us in this position were entitled to millions, and millions of dollars. Had the government dispersed funds to every household, people would have paid off their debts, houses, automobiles, and loans, which would have benefited the economy.

 

There are an estimated 306,000,000 in the ....U.S..... had the government dispersed $10000 (which is less than what was handed out, and there would have been money left over) to each household people would have spent the money wisely, and this country would be back on track. People would have had funds to refinance their homes with different lenders, and stopped displacing so many people from their homes, onto the streets. Banks would have generated money because people would have paid off, or caught up on loans they were behind on. Credit cards would have been paid-off and people would have kept their good name, and good credit ratings, and would never apply for a credit card again.

 

Businesses, and production would have continued to flow, men, and women would have kept their jobs because consumers would have invested back into the economy, instead the government allowed everything to go stalemate and crash. Many jobs would have been lost this is true; however, many more jobs would have been saved had the funds been dispersed to the people who will and are paying the seven trillion dollar debt. Stop letting the banks control the money, let the people control the money, and show the government what can be accomplished when people are happy, paying off debts, and feeding their families. If the government were going to barrow that kind of money; they should have played Robinhood, and gave it to the people to pick up this economy, not the crooks that put people in this financial state to begin with. Now with the national debt in the trillions the government thinks they own people, and they will continue to suck every penny from our pockets until they have successfully drained us dry to pay back a debt they assumed to watch over their own asses.

 

People do not think there is something wrong with a system that punishes little boys, and girls for making bad choices in grade school? Our little boys and girls are being treated like criminals because they take a birthday cake to school with a knife to cut the cake (New Jersey), they can no longer use their imagination without someone saying they have bad intentions. Playing cowboys and Indians is now a crime. Today (October 13, 2009) a 6 year-old little boy (Zachary Christie) from New Jersey (Channel 2 HDTV news) is suspended from school for taking his, boy-scout knife, fork and spoon to school, and that is not the worse part he is being sent away for 45 days to a treatment facility. For what? Making a mistake in judgment, he is 6 years-old for heaven sake. Not all children are bad children, but according to the juvenile system, and school system, all children must have bad intentions when he or she makes an honest mistake.

 

Instead of counseling children, or explaining to them why something is not acceptable, let’s just lock the children up, so we do not have to deal with them. They are now locking up little babies. Zack is 6 years-old, a baby, he just started school, what will this do to this little boys mental state? Lock him up with real criminals, what will that do? Teach him more bad things. He is just a baby. Tell me there is not something wrong.

 

People can be as pissed as they want with me speaking my mind, frankly, I do not give a damn. It is time to open our eyes and see what is happening here. People bitched about the hippies in the 60s, who had the courage to stand up and defend themselves and what they believed in. They voiced themselves, they stood strong, and they did not back down. We need to stand tall, and stop this rhetoric and BS like our mothers, father, aunts, uncles, and strangers did in the 60s. When do we say, enough is enough?

 

Many may think I am just rambling, but think about it, had the people been given a choice, none of this would be happening. Had the people received the stimulus the economy would have turned around already, had smokers and obese, men, women, and children been left alone people would be happy instead of paranoid. The government is not allowing that to happen because they want and need people to depend on them. Stop depending on the government, and lean on one another. We need to watch over one another, our families, friends, neighbors, and even strangers, we can no longer sit back and watch one another suffer, and go without like some agencies are letting people do right now.

 

If people cannot afford to pay their bills right now, how in the hell will they pay the fines, and taxes the government plans to impose should this healthcare bill pass. Everyone really needs to read what Bork wrote in 1997 about what would happen, come 2009. Everything Bork said has and is coming true.

 

Quoting, Bork (1997), "[To lessen the heat on politicians, the pact increases the powers of the Food and Drug Administration to regulate tobacco as an addictive drug, with the caveat that it may not prohibit cigarette smoking altogether before the year 2009.]” (para.19). in 2009, the government’s plan was put into action and played out exactly as Bork described it would. Additionally Bork says, “[And who is to pay for making smoking more difficult? Smokers will have the price of cigarettes raised by new taxes and by the tobacco companies' costs of complying with the settlement. It is a brilliant strategy: Smokers will pay billions to have their pleasure taken away]”(para.23).

 

Bio: Robert H. Bork (b. 1927) taught at ..Yale.. ..Law.. ..School.., resigned to serve as Solicitor General of the ....United States...., and then appointed to the U.S. Court of Appeals. He is now a resident scholar at the American Enterprise Institute, ....Washington.. ..D.C.....

In closing, I want to say again, stand together and watch over one another, we are all we have. We need to stop the government, and special interest groups from turning us against one another. That is all the government is doing, turning us against one another when we should be standing beside one another. The rhetoric and BS coming from the government and special interest groups is causing us to hate people, smokers, obesity, religion, and sexual preferences. Make up your own minds do not buy into the BS.

 

It is a sad day when we trust the government, and no longer trust one another. The government will not take the shirt off their back for the people, like an unknown stranger will when someone is down on their luck. We need one another, we are all we have people.
