The Senate of the US--and the idiot who runs it

So, the lead idiot in charge of the Senate of these (once great) United States pushed through his healthcare plan this past Saturday. Of course, it was only to "debate" the actual healthcare plan, not the actual plan itself, right? Right. The soon to be Former Senator Harry Reid knows that once the debate has passed, there's only a snowball's chance in hell (where, as an aside, I think he's headed) that the whole thing won't pass the Senate. He thinks we're all stupid--and to be true, some of us are--I mean, how else did he get re-elected? Anyway, I digress. Mr. Reid knows that by passing the bill through for debate, he can almost certainly get the entire thing passed. I mean, he has 60 friggin' votes in the Senate, he should have had it done already--but wait!! The American people are against this boondoggle, and he knows it. However, he doesn't really give a damn about any of us, because he's just that much better and smarter than we are. Didn't you know? He and Madam Pelosi are like friggin' geniuses!! (Or is that genieii?) Anyway, they know so much more than we stupid "teabaggers" and "radicals", that they will push this thing through no matter what. Frankly, I think they need to be dragged out into the open square and flogged--or tar-and-feathered, that would work too.

What we have is a majority of the populous that does not want the DMV-style healthcare that we're all doomed to have under this program, but those who work for us--that is, the legislators in the Congress and the lead Communist in the White House, they want it no matter what. The real question is, WHY??? It certainly can't be to cover the 10-15% of people who have no insurance--we could very easily put together a "safety-net" type program that would cover those that are facing bankruptcy because of healthcare costs, those that have no money and have major healthcare problems, or those that can't get coverage for whatever reason, and I don't believe that ANYONE would argue against it. There is NO REASON that the government needs to take over the ENTIRE HEALTHCARE SYSTEM--except that it gives them more power. It gives them the power over all of our lives--they can regulate food, guns, excercise, whatever, because now they control healthcare. Goodbye McDonalds, your food has no nutritional value. Wendys can stay, though. Burger King is just a memory, but you were found to have skipped your last visit to Gold's Gym, that's going to cost you. Think I'm nuts?? Just wait until they get their hooks into everything that we're doing. My examples may be hyperbole, but it's not going to be that far from the truth.

The fact is, we're facing a crisis in this country like never before. We have actual unemployment at levels not seen since the great depression--I've seen figures between 17% and 22% when they include those that can't find a full-time job who have been off the rolls for over 6 months, those that can only find part-time work when the need or want full-time, or those that have had their hours cut back because of the economy. Obeyme wants to add health insurance for everyone, and that will "save" money. Save money?? What kind of dope is this guy smoking?? I've never had drugs that good--spend money to save money?? Awesome. That means I can max out my credit cards and end up retiring off my savings, right?? Right. Fact is, Obeyme is out of his league completely. He has no concept of economics, no concept of foreign relations (and it's being proven with his last trip to China), no idea on how to fix the problems that we are all facing, and frankly--I think the man is a highly educated idiot. He may be "book smart", but he has no idea how to handle the position he's been put in. No experience running a business, no experience running anything, but he's connected. Oh yes. He's connected.

The bottom line for me, is that I am afraid of what we're going to see in the future of this country. If we don't stop spending (healthcare, cap and trade (yet another bullshit program), bailing out everyone but the taxpayers), we are going to see the value of our dollar drop to nothing--that means hyperinflation, like never seen on this continent. You think the Weimar Republic was bad? They didn't spend a FRACTION of what Obeyme and his minions have already spent. Add in what they want to spend, and this country is doomed. There is no coming out of debt that is estimated to be $24 TRILLION IN THE NEXT 10 YEARS!!! Right now we're at a lowly $12 TRILLION in debt. People don't even know what that number means, it's so bad. Ask someone what a trillion is, and you're likely to get a brand of coffee. Anyway, I have no wish for the bad things that are going to happen, but I have a bad feeling about this whole thing. Think about: food riots, blood in the streets, neighbor against neighbor, starvation on the streets of America, and that's just the beginning.

Oh--and the kicker?? It's all planned. Nobody is this stupid. Not even Harry Reid.

Healthcare and Government

So, the House passed government-run healthcare last night. Finally. Just what I was hoping for. Now, instead of some insurance bureaucrat looking over my healthcare, it will be some government idiot in an ivory tower who doesn't know shit about healthcare making decisions for me. Awesome.

Let me get this straight: Because we have somewhere between 20 and 46 million people without healthcare, the Goverment must take over the whole system? We can't just come up with something that will help those that don't have it, nope. We need to take over the whole thing. God knows how well they've done with all those other things that government has taken over. I mean, since the whole "war on poverty", we know there are no more poor people in this country, and since the "war on drugs" was initiated, we obviously have no more drug users or dealers. Government stepped in, and "oila!" No more problem. Friggin' awesome how well the government works, isn't it?

What we have here in reality is a bunch of communist idiots, led by the Lead Idiot, Obeyme. Let's take over everything so we can push our Socialist agenda of control by government. God knows how well that's worked out in the past, I mean look at those wonderful Chinese--oh wait--they've become Capitalists. Hmmm... Funny how that's worked out, I wonder what Mao would say, but we can always listen to his followers in the capital.

We'll have to see how this whole thing plays out, but one thing is for certain: Obeyme wants the US to become another 3rd world state. Welcome to Zimbabwe, everyone.
