What Health Care Reform Means For Average Americans
|
How do you get past all the political rhetoric media punditry and general ranting of the American public? More importantly what does this all mean?
Generally speaking, I’m one of those guys (sorry ladies) who believe the simplest answer is generally the correct one. And at the average American Joe, level I see our nation’s government getting ready to embark on what they are trying to sell as a nearly one trillion dollar fix to our nation’s health care woes. Partisan politics aside, I just can’t get over ANY government spending $1 trillion efficiently and to the maximum benefit of those from whose children’s pockets that money is coming from. Further, any government official who can look in a mirror and with a straight face say the government will not exceed the $1 trillion outlined by several times, probably has had their face frozen through Botox and plastic surgery.
So what does health care reform really mean for average Americans? Well, I think our government just opened a can of whupass on themselves. I think as people start to really understand what is in the 2,700 page legislative smorgasbord, the majority of them will find out that it exceeds their wildest dreams of government waste, corruption, naïveté, and arrogance which will result in the largest non-election year turnout in the November elections.
For most of us who tend not to be as wired into non-presidential national elections, why is November such a big deal we ask? It is a big deal because every seat in the House of Representatives is up for re-election and 36 seats are up for re-election in the Senate including seats in CT, DE, IL, IN, ND, FL, KS, KY, MO, NH, OH, AR, CA, CO, HI, NV, NY, OR, PA, VT, WA, WI, AL, AK, AZ, GA, ID, IA, LA, NC, OK, SC, SD, UT. If we, as a nation, are a sleeping giant, I think we are waking up today. |
