Hillary Clinton wants to force young adults to pay the same for health insurance as seniors. The average health insurance for a young adult is $70 a mth for a $1,000 deductible and the same deductible for a Seniors health insurance is $250 a mth. She would require they pay the same and be forced to do so!!! Already young adults pay for Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid for the seniors through wages deductions!!!
At the least Obama isn't asking to force you to pay, but have the option to buy.
Universal health care may sound good when u chant it in a huge stadium to encourage a crowd, but the reality is when the government takes control we the tax payer, the one its meant to help, we lose!! And this country cannot afford what the Democrats are suggesting. The problem is too many are falling for the rederic and not paying attention to what they are saying.
It's like the child hood song "Ring around the rosies Ashes ashes we all fall down" as a kid you sing the song it makes to laugh and smile, but when u get older u pay attention to the words and realize the song is about the plague and death!!!

Yes, we can. We can. We can. We can.
We can do what? I don..t even no he what he..s talking about. But we can do it.
You know, shooting down a satellite? Yes, we can. Keeping our borders wide open? Yes, we can.
Yesterday, people actually applauded when he blew his nose on stage. I am not kidding you.
Yes, we can do that, too.
As it turns out, Obama..s actually not talking about any of those things. The "Real Story" is that if you actually read his detailed economic plan that Obama finally released, I believe what he's actually saying is, yes, we can move this country towards a Soviet-style redistribution of wealth.
Barack Obama would make things worse, because what he's talking about is almost every important tax rate would go up to the highest rates they've been since the 1970s.
If you put in place his whole program, the highest tax rate in the United states would go up to 52 percent. If you live in a state like New York or New Jersey, you..re talking about 60 percent tax rate.
Barack talks about, you know, when he talks about, "Yes, we can," is he keeps talking about it saying, we..re going to bring jobs back to America, we're going to punish those Benedict Arnold corporations who are moving their facilities overseas. But if we're raising taxes over here and other countries are cutting taxes, how is that going to bring jobs to our shores?

Hillary Clinton was asked, "Mrs. Clinton, how would you define the word "liberal"? And would you use this word to describe yourself?
SEN. HILLARY CLINTON (D-NY), PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE replied,"Unfortunately, in the last 30, 40 years, it has been turned up on its head. And it..s been made to seem as though it is a word that describes big government. I prefer the word Progressive, which has a real American meaning, going back to the progressive era at the beginning of the 20th century.
I consider myself a proud modern American progressive, and I think that's the kind of philosophy and practice that we need to bring back to American politics."
Look up early American 20th century progressive. I couldn't believe she actually wanted to call herself that. These are the people that brought in Prohibition. They brought in the income tax.
But to call yourself a progressive, "The New York Times" liberals call themselves progressives. Everyone calls themselves progressives. And Hillary Clinton does. And no one seems to care what the actual progressives did. And the actual progressives were state-ists run amok.
Hillary tries to get away by saying, "Well, liberal has come to mean big government." The progressives were the original big-government people. They believed that the age of the individual was over, that we had to redefine ourselves only through the collective, through the group and through the state. And therefore, the individual had to be crushed. We all had to work towards the larger collective endeavors.
And that expressed itself in all sorts of ways. Through World War I was a great example. And it's important to remember that many of the progressives, the most important progressives, like John Dewey, the most important liberal philosopher of the 20th century. He liked World War I but not for the foreign policy reasons but because of what he called the social benefits of war.
The ability to use rallying for war to crush the concept of laissez- faire capitalism, free market capitalism, individualism, to crush those concepts and forge a new collective identity, a new American man. The vision for the role of government, that the government is going to love you. The government is going to take care of you. It's government for your own good.
Hitler was actually a vegetarian. Wanted to take and spread the glories of vegetarianism and saying, you know, it's good for everybody, we should eat this. It's the same kind of things that we're dealing with now here in America in many ways. What's good for you is just forced upon you. You no longer have a choice of choosing anything else.
A famous Hitler youth slogan was "Nutrition is not a private matter." You know, it was the idea that what you wanted to eat, that wasn't up to you anymore, it was up to the government
These people who want to get rid of transfats, want to determine what you eat, because the more socialized medicine we have, the more rationale they think they have to determine what you can eat, what you can put in your body.
For one, am tired of the government-knows-best attitude, and it's getting worse and worse every year.
I saw a story come out of California and many of them are actually willing for the government to control the thermostat in their house!!!!
And we're seeing more and more of that around the world. In Canada, you have people being denied surgeries. In Great Britain you have people being denied surgeries if they're fat, just simply saying you don't deserve these kind of surgeries.
Mississippi, they were talking about a new law where restaurants would have to refuse service if you were OBESE!! You couldn't have certain things.You wouldn't have to give them service if they were obese!!!!
There's a very serious snobbishness to the progressive mindset, this idea that we need to take care of the little people. The little people can't control their own lives, and therefore, we know what's best for them.
And then there's actually a sort of green-eye-shade public policy here, which is that the more the government is picking up the tab for your health care, the more the people running the government feel obligated or permitted to determine how you run your own life, because they're picking up the tab!!!!!

Hillary Clinton says that she..s not for big government, then why is it there's not almost a single social program that she doesn't have a government program for? Why is it that "progressives", their answer to any social problem is an expanded role for government?
The trailers for Katrina victims are a good example. They are trying to get them out because the air has formaldehyde in it and, you know, people are getting sick, and they said the government is not telling us the truth. They're telling us it..s no big deal. They've been passing this off.
And I thought to myself, this is a government program. Here it is. This is the way it works.
It's only going to get worse when they control everything!!!!

The old proverb about the sign of insanity is you're digging a hole and you keep digging to get out of it
Whenever we run into one of these, you know unintended consequences of well-intentioned government programs, the response seems to be, oh, more government programs!!!

Barack Obama's solution for our education problems in this country is to say, well, we haven..t spent enough on education. Yet we..ve been spending money on education and promising more money won't solve anything.
You have these banks starting to come in and say, we need to have the government take these bad loans that we wrote...!!!!!
Remember the progressive era, where big corporations and government worked hand in hand. We're seeing it again today, where these big corporations are delighted to have the government bail them out. And you see the progressive, you know, liberal Democrats saying that they would love to do it.
Woodrow Wilson says it quite plainly. He says the essence of progressivism requires that the individual marry his interests to the state. Those are his words.
It's the idea that the individual has to define himself in relationship to the state, that he gets his livelihood.
When Barack Obama campaigns, he's basically saying, I'm a silver bullet, I'm going to solve all your problems just by electing me.
FDR, Hitler, all these guys, they basically said, all your problems can be solved. I don..t think conservatives should buy into that logic.
Benjamin Franklin said you have a right to fail in America.

if you saw the world through my eyes you'd be crying too.
i see the world with too many people, and too much shit to do.
people always fighting over shit that won't ever really matter anyway,
all for self-satisfaction for right now, when your life can be over the very same day.

everyday living seems like a test,
it's all about winning and seeing who's the best.
all that shit don't really matter to me i live so i can die.
are you starting to see the world through my eyes?
are you starting to cry?

i'm tired of people questioning me and what i choose to do.
people always stressing me 'cause i don't move as quick as they do.
what's the hurry anyway? the end's not going anywhere fast. so why are you?

are you happy the way the world is, people killed everyday?
what's it matter, it's just on the news, it doesn't affect you anyway.
until it's you, under a sheet on the news, dead,
'cause you cut somebody off on a freeway somewhere, and they shot you in the head.

and that's how quick the end can come for people who live so fast.
now you're nothing but a memory known as the past.
now do you see the world through my eyes ?
now are you starting to cry?
no...
just keep in mind you could have died while reading this poem or any time before.

i'll tell you once again the end's not going anywhere.
but be careful, it could be knocking at your door...
