Re: Democracy vs Liberty
It's a good thing we aren't a Democracy. I will take Liberty every time. Forcing me to get health care has nothing to do with liberty. And yes they were able to get health care by bribing their own members(Landreu and others). Thats how bad that stinker was(is). They even went the nuke option when Scott Brown was elected by telling the voters he was the vote that would stop health care dead(it worked he got elected). I hope the Supreme Court does what is right and shoots that thing down(very unlikely). Remember what Pelosi said...."we have to pass it to find out whats in it". Well we found out that there are tax increases and more mandates on small business. Thank you ma'am, may I have another! I don't want anyone forcing me under threat of a fine or jail to get Government health care. It's already falling apart. You are exempt if you are a union or big fast food like McDonalds. Is this Liberty? Liberty, liberty, liberty. Give me Liberty! Taking money from me(or printing more, or even worse borrowing from China) to pay off unions and big business in the name of "too big to fail" isn't liberty. These are things that got done in the first two years. There are others too. Our Government now is in the car making business and after telling the financial businesses that they had to loan to people who couldn't afford houses(which helped in the financial crash), they just bought the majority in those businesses making the Government the largest share holders(you and me). BO makes the head of GE a big wig in his Government. The Government starts with this goofy squirly looking light bulb and then GE turns around and makes a big deal with China to have light bulbs made in China. What American jobs? Give me Liberty! Yes they got a lot done in the first two years. Now lets hold them accountable!
Oh and yes I do believe that there are Progressive Republicans that love power as much as the Progressive Dems and will try to protect Government Health care and other big Government projects. Every time I see the Rep debates I see a bunch of Progressives up there. There might be one or two that aren't running for "power purposes". I say give the power back to the people and stop with this "change" nonsense.
