My rant

Considering the fact that I spent four years getting a degree in Political Science I'm going to state what I think about health care. This is a warning so you might want to stop reading right about now. Do I believe that this country needs health care reform absoultely. Do I believe this bill is the answer that is a resounding NO! Any bill that has to be bought, and is so bipartisan is not what this country needs. When an overwhelming majority of the population is against it, it is not what this country needs. Do you realize that the founding fathers argueed about declaring independence for months. After they finally voted for independence and had Jefferson wright it, they then had a committee that revised it. Granted they didn't change to much, but they still changed things to the Declaration of Independence. The delegates from PA refused to vote, because they knew it needed to be unanoumas decided and their constintuents didn't want independence. They listened to the people they represent. At this moment with this congress I feel like going to D.C. with a sign that says no taxation without represention. Our congressmen and senators have stopped representing the people and are more worried about getting re-elected. That is what worries me most about this bill. It is not government now controls health care which is bad enough, but that it was a rushed bill that didn't matter what the public wanted. We no longer have a republic. We have moved one step closer to socialism. Health care is not a right. Our country's values have changed we now expect the government to fix all of our problems. When that happens we give up all of our freedoms. Socialism and communism sound great on paper, but not in pracitice just look at history. We need to stop and think what government is really supposed to do.
