An Open Letter To President Obama

Dear President Obama,

I am writing this letter as an open letter to President Barack Obama in an effort to clear some things out of the air in the healthcare debate. From what I have gathered, proponents of healthcare “reform”, Republicans and Democrats alike seem to be saying that healthcare is a right. I would like to respectfully disagree and detail my disagreement in this letter. In the Bill of Rights, as well as throughout the thirteenth, fourteenth, and fifteenth amendments, with the exception of the right to an attorney when a person is charged with a crime (whose exception lies in the principle that the state is the one leveling the charges), every one of those rights has one thing in common: they are all non-material in nature. The right to speak freely, the right to keep and bear arms, the right to be free from soldiers living in your home, the right to be secure in your persons houses papers and effects against unreasonable searches and seizures, etc. these rights describe a nature of humanity which cannot be provided or taken away by any government, and if there is a government which believes that these qualities exist it its expense, then said government has no business existing in the first place. That the rights I have mentioned above have been equated to a product and a service that must be provided by other people is why I have taken offense, and why I write this letter today. It is because of this equation that I fear will result ultimately in the death of the both.
For what it’s worth, the proponents of this plan charge its opponents of unfair tactics, fear mongering, and of things, that, if the Bush administration had accused its opponents of, these very same people would charge censorship. Below are two aricles from time magazine that detail the dangers of even coming remotely close to anything like this, that the risks themselves of anything like this happening are simply too great, and we cannot proceed with this out of the simple fear of creating our own worst nightmare.

More details on the history of the fraud of the HMO

I have just been reading online, and the history of the situation is more contrived than I thought it was. Apparently the HMO was created by Congress in response to the increasing costs of Medicare. When people are busy blaming HOM's for rationing their care, they should be blaming congress. Read here.

A formal challenge

I am resident of Lowell, MA, and being such, Niki Tsongas is my congressman. I am hereby making a formal challenge to Ms. Tsongas: Afetr the accusations of disingenuousness that have been made by Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, and Barachk Obama, that we might be manifestations of Rush Limbaugh, insurance companies, or the Republican party's dreams, (which is false), after Barack Obama's setting up of a ratline for citizens to rat each other out on, nothing could enfuriate and motivate me more than the suggestion that my concerns for my own self interest are not legitimate. If you do not extract an apology out of Nancy Pelosi when you return to congress, or even before then, than those of us that are in this fight will do it for you, and we will take it out in spades.

The Ratline

So the Obama administration seems to think that developing a ratline where people can call up and rat on their neighborsw is a good idea. I wonder what would happen if people decided to email in with information about the president himself. Go to this link

In other news, HR3200 has the trojan horse in it that conservatives have accused Democrats of putting into the bill. It is in Sec 102, subsection a, paragraph 1, subparagraph A:

(A) IN GENERAL- Except as provided in this paragraph, the individual health insurance issuer offering such coverage does not enroll any individual in such coverage if the first effective date of coverage is on or after the first day of Y1.

In other words, after day 1 of y1 (Jan. 1, 2013), no one will be able to offer private health insurance to new individual customers. After all the employers drop their employees, whamo! instant takeover of you! If you thought the Bush Administrations policies of invasion of privacy were bad, well you ain't seen nothin' yet.

August recess has begun

The August Recess has begun, Obama is now reshaping his nightmare for the American people to look more light insurance reform than healthcare reform; Nancy PPelosi has declared that insurance companies are "villains". I thought they didn't want to put these guys out of business. I thought they just wanted to create some innocent goverment run insurance option, not an orwellian monopoly on how you use your body. I guess I was wrong.
It appears that, with all the difficulties that the propoinents of this nonsense have had with their own party, they are getting nervous about the chances of this passing. This in no way means that its opponents can lessen their criticism; in fact, I would say that they have the bill(s) at the perfect stages for observation by the American public for about a month; in a mont's time people will find out that in the US military, with its VA hospital, your body is public property, your medical records are public property. Indeed, you will not be able to take a p&#s without the Gov't knowing about it.
For all those people that pay for things with their own money, not the gov't's money, but their own, they know, that when you pay for something, you own it, and when you own it, you must make controlling decisions. So how is it that the gov't will pay for your healthcare and not make ownership decisions? It won't happen, you will be owned by Uncle Sam if this passes. They will create a competeing gov't option, which will put private companies out of business, because nobody competes with the gov't, and then, the gov't will own you, it will own all of the hospitals, and your freedom will be gone.
I think it was Sen. Jim Demint who had said that if Obama loses this fight, it will be his waterloo; wew have got to draw the line in the sand here.

How Tough It IS

So the senate has finally begun work on theis massive Program, yet they have gotten nowhere. Let's hope the "moderates" like Mccain don't screw this up in the name of getting things done.

The Climax has Begun

So now, in spite of the fact that if the government creates a governemtn sponnsored health insurance plan, there are three options that could happen to the healthcare industry:

1) There is a ghetto-izing of the health insurance industry in such a way that there is gov't (low) quality of health care for one group of people, while anyone who can afford more will do so, and create a rent-control type of a situation, where you have a group of poor people, who can't afford anything more than the gov't gives them, and then you have the wealthy who can afford more.

2) All of the health insurance companies create healthcare plans that mirror the gov't's plan, thus making no \difference at all betwwen the gov't and private insurance, which would ultimately lead to:

3) All of the private insurers go out of business ( they can't get revenue by mugging people on the street and take their money away like the gov't) and we all wind up on a single payer plan (which is what they want).

Any of these three scenarios is exzactly what has to be stopped, in fact the best thing that can reasonably happen is nothing at all. The best thing overall that can happen, is that the gov't eliminates the federal reserve, creates a separation between economy and state for the same purpose and enforced by the same method as the separation between church and state.

If people do not see that the only thing these politicians want is more power over you, and the people that actually make money, then you are blind as a bat, and deserve to live as a slave under this BS.

Well, it looks like we are now all socialists in the USA. Europe has the capitalists. If we are lucky, Europe will stop Obama from implemeting his world wide socialism plan until people in this country wake up and put a real capitalist in power.

On another note, Rush was awsome today, he gave a great monologue on how to stop Obama. While I think that Rush burned up his integrity by endorsing GWB, he is useful for calling Obama on the carpet.

So Now dear president is telling everyone that now is the time to "deliver" on healthcare. Deliver what all of us to some mass self sacrifice of our rights. On the same topic- what happens to abortion- Roe v. Wade, when a Republican comes to power and inevitably will with this type of fraud established as healthcare? Abortion will be gone, (whether you like it or not) and Republicans will show their willingness to use a system that violates your right and responsibilty to yourself to satisfy their own ends.

On a side note I don't think abortion should be as available as it is today, certainly not for convenience or birth-control purposes.

I would like to ask anyone reading this blog what do you think of your healthcare? not the healthcare of 45 million people you don't know, but your healthcare? Are you satisfied with it? If so, and you still want this to pass, maybe you ought to check your premises. He says that he promotes a plan that would not addd to the budget deficit. How can any plan not add to the budget deficit? He is going to be taking the profits away from perfectly healthy, profitable health insurance companies in order to redistribute health care. Now what makes you think that tehse companies will survive if they don't have profits? and if health insurance is delivered to all then your current hogh quality healthcare will have its standards lowered to those peole who don't have insurance. In other words you will get exactly the same healthcare as a worthless bum. There will be droves of people lining up at doctors offices to get their free (taht working people paid for) healthcare. Where do you think doctors will go when they are forced to work as slaves for this nonsense? I only pray that anybody intelligent enough to be a doctor gets and stays out of the profession before its too late.

The statement in the header above, "When Medicine is Socialized, Your Body Will Become Public Property" is a fact. when your health is bought and paid for by someone else, it is that someone else that makes the ownership decisions, i.e., beggars can't be choosers. There are many resources to do research in this field, my main source is Ayn Rand's books, such as Atlas Shrugged, and others. While these references are not technically based, they are philosophically based, and provide an excellent viewpoint, as well as this post http://gusvanhorn.blogspot.com/2007/04/forgotten-man-speaks.html.

The second post on this blog is analyzing the history, the current situations and assumptions that people make, and the possibilities for the fututre.





First: How did we get where we are now? We got here in World War II, we were at war, and the gov't needed people to tighten belts.. so the gov't established rationson everything, and then inflation started to rise way too quickly, and the gov't put price and wage caps on everything. Employers then found that they could not get any new employees, so they had to offer them something other than money.. Health Insurance. 50% of the workforce was women, we all know that women are more concerned about healthcare than are men so it worked great..until the employees needed to retire. Then came medicare, and then came the ever expanding gov't since then.





Now Let's analyze today.


An assumtion that everyone makes is that everyone needs healthcare. Well what is a need? No answer.



The best that I can tell you is that a need in gov't terms is something that everyone must have.

The best real answer is that a need is a deficit. When you satisfy someone else's need, the time, effort, and money, the value that you use to satisfy that need is destroyed. It is wasted. When someone satisfies their own need, without violating anyone else's right to do the same, it is good. What about the woman who works three jobs to support her children you ask? Her working of those three jobs is evidence of her devotion to her children. Would you rather that she not be devoted to her children? Do you expect me to be devoted to her children?



But what makes you think that the gov't has the authority to take over an entire industry, because it has told us that some people "need" healthcare? What makes them think that they can turn your body into public property, and force healthcare providers into slaves of the state?

This post focuses on the fourth amendment. I have seen so little on this issue that it alone disturbs me. The Republicans hate the 4th amendment, and the Democrats use it only when it suits their needs. Let me quote the Fourth amendment to the constitution

"The right ot the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and siezures shall not be violated, and no warrant shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and paticularly describing the place to be searched and the persons or things to be siezed."

President Obama intends to specifically violate this and turn your body into public property. He has stated it himself, that medical decisions will be made by beaurocrats, not by doctors, using a medical database made of all the illegally siezed papers belonging to the people.
