As you all probably know, the government takeover of healthcare and reduction of freedom bill just narrowly passed in the House of Representatives. This is a sad day for America, a sad day when the country that is beacon around the world for freedom to choose and freedom of opportunity passes this sweeping upgrade of government powers in it's people's daily lives. As a Conservative Republican with a majority of friends who are liberal Democrats, it's been hard to lay out my arguments. They have constantly berated me, as Obama and the state run/ Mainstream media as done to you, with the argument that everything will be fine and that this new bill will magically give everyone healthcare - a utopian ideal, basically. But what they fail to tell you about is the millions of dollars in new and obviously higher taxes that will be required to pay for this monstrosity, and the great new bureaucracy that will be put in place. Not only will you possibly be forced out of your current healthcare plan, you will be subject to rationing of drugs and less personal care because someone far that is supposed to believe in "hope" and "change" has decided that he and his cronies know better what you need and know better than you how to take care of you and your family. Instead of using common sense ideas such as being able to buy across state lines and reducing taxes on the middle class and reducing taxes on small businesses so that they can provide better healthcare for their employees (and keep them employed there for that matter), Obama and Pelosi have decided that they will ignore the American people's call for fairness, common sense and liberty and instead go the usual democrat way of "don't worry, we can do it for you. Just give us more of your hard earned money". I'm writing this post to open your eyes to reality, that it's time to stop treating Obama like god and that it's time to once again understand that limited government and personal liberty and responsibility are the ways that the unemployment rates will go down and more people can afford healthcare or better healthcare. We now look to the senate for some sense and morality. I hope they take a stand and stand up for whats right and vote for freedom rather than more government power - as I hope all you liberal democrats do when you read this.
God is love,
Max
