For those of you who think insurance companies are “evil”, try paying your doctor directly and see how that works out for you…

Sadly, people are just beginning to find out that Obama is not a leader, but rather a lamb we’ve followed to the slaughterhouse.

When will the American People ever prosecute the Congressmen, Senators, and Presidents who have squandered our prosperity, outsourced good paying American jobs to slave-states, and sent our children to die in pointless, politically correct wars? Will the People ever take legal action against the politicians/dregs of society who have committed these crimes? If we are willing to prosecute private individuals for thievery and murder, why wouldn’t we be willing to prosecute those who rob the People and commit murder on a far grander scale?

In regards to the textbook debate; the problem with “liberal facts” is they fail to include ALL the facts and put things into context. For example, they’ll tell you Thomas Jefferson and George Washington were slave owners, and were therefore terrible people. However, they won’t tell you that slavery was an age-old institution that had been practiced all around the world by all the world’s people, including Africans, for thousands of years. They’ll also tell you that US business men, like Henry Ford, supported Adolf Hitler, but will fail to tell you that Hitler ran an all-powerful, all-encompassing, centralized, socialist government that had manipulated a democratic system against itself by telling people what they wanted to hear in order to get elected (i.e. we’re pro-business, anti-communism and pro-Free Market, even though we stated capitalism was a Jewish ploy in Mein Kampf, loathe individualism, and run a Planned/Command Economy). They’ll tell you right-wing means racism, but will fail to tell you about Decossackization, Jewish show trials, forced Ukrainian starvation, and crimes committed against ethnic Tatars and Chechens perpetrated by left-wing Soviet Russia. They’ll tell you America is a right-wing nation based on militarism, and will point to wars like Korea and Vietnam to prove their point, but will fail to mention that the Soviet Union’s entire existence was based on militarism, and their form of government was responsible for the deaths of more innocent people than Nazism. They’ll also conveniently forget to add that left-wing communists in Russia actually had the gall to attack their neighbors, like those in Eastern Europe and Central Asia, comparable to America attacking Canada and Mexico, and parading nuclear rockets thru the streets. Etc…, etc…, etc…

The facts are the facts, but we’re not talking about the facts, we’re talking about ideological propaganda. If liberals are finally willing to tell the WHOLE story, that would be a welcomed change. I am personally an atheist, and could give a crap about religion, but I at least disparage all religions equally; Christianity, Islam, Judaism, Hinduism, Buddhism, etc…, whereas the liberals will only deride Christianity, due to political correctness, as if the other religions of the world aren’t guilty of all the same stupidity. I just don’t want to see politically correct fruit-loops insult our country as if it is some kind of terrible monster. For every action there is a reaction, and until liberals begin to include cause and effect and context along with their “facts”, their “facts” will continue to be nothing more than left-wing drivel. As the British statesman George Canning once said, “A patriot of the world alone, a friend to every country but his own”.

In order for insurance companies to cover people with “preexisting conditions” (i.e. the chronically sick), young, healthy people who do not currently need healthcare will be forced to buy-in so their money can be used to pay for the chronically ill.

Insurance companies aren’t in the business of paying out $10,000 in doctors’ bills for a $250 return from patients. The rate they’d go out of business would be astonishing.

What young people don’t understand is the coverage of people with “preexisting conditions” will force them to pay into the pot. All citizens, especially the healthy who have no current need for healthcare, will be forced to buy policies and pay their premiums each month so their money can be used to pay for the sick. That’s how insurance works.

In regards to the healthcare debate, the government is barking up the wrong tree. Insurance companies will not, and can not, lower their rates until doctors lower theirs.

We speak of how much money evil insurance companies are making, and the fact they are profiting from people’s suffering, but it is the doctors who turn misery into profit. It is the doctors, and surgeons, who are some of the richest members of our society, almost a class unto themselves.

That would be all well and good with me – after all, they do save people’s lives and prevent disease – if it wasn’t for a little oath, called the Hippocratic Oath, ALL doctors in this country are compelled to take upon entering the profession. The document is essentially written as a declaration of public service, and does not make mention of profiting off people’s disease and pain. In fact, it says the opposite:

“I will prevent disease wherever I can…”

“I will remember that I remain a member of society, with special obligations to all my fellow human-beings, those of sound mind, as well as the infirm”.

That does not say, “I will prevent disease only when patients can meet my rates”, or “I have special obligations to all my fellow human-beings that can afford to see me”. Nowhere in the oath will you find, “I will use my position to amass wealth”, or “I will use my abilities as a symbol of social-status”. The oath itself is more or less written like a vow of public service, almost monk-like in its nature.

You may say, “well, this is communism/socialism you’re talking about”, and I’d answer that by saying, “I’m not talking about it. Doctors force this stuff on themselves. They all swear by this oath, so if they don’t like it they should change the words to reflect what is actually going on”.

I have no love for communism/socialism, but I believe people should be held to their word. Excluding charitable organizations, I can’t think of a single doctor in America who actually lives by the oath that they thought up, wrote, and pledge themselves to.

PETA, and many other radical environmental groups, are closely associated with neo-Nazism, though many of them may not even know it. Granted, racism/anti-Semitism was a large component of Nazism, and PETA is not a racist organization, but racism was only one component of Nazism, however large, and ultimately terrifying a component it was. The Nazi movement in Germany was founded on the principle that industrialization was corrupting society and poisoning the Earth. Heinrich Himmler, lord of the SS, especially believed in “reconnecting with nature”, and living a self-sustained life thru farming (which he attempted to do by running his own farm). This was the whole basis of “Lebensraum” and the race-war against Russia (i.e. to claim living space, or farmland, from the East for the Reich). Animal rights was also a major component of Nazism, with the idea that animals were “innocent”, whereas humans, and “sub-humans” as it were, had unlimited capacity for “evil” (much like Hitler did, ironically). The ideology of groups like PETA resembles that of the Nazis in the sense that they show more compassion towards animals than their fellow human-beings, and believe that the modern industrialized world must be destroyed. This, needless to say, is a very dangerous ideology, regardless of whether or not those who march to that beat understand the connection. In the case of the Nazis, they believed the entire Westernized world should’ve been destroyed and rebuilt from scratch, in a self-sustainable fashion… much like the radical environmental group ELF (Earth Liberation Front) believes. Most undereducated people, who are ignorant of the fact that Nazism was about more than just racism, fail to realize people can be Nazis without adopting the racial aspect of it (these people are generally referred to as Fascists, Socialists, or just plain assholes). PETA-fanatics, and other oblivious neo-Nazis will often reply with a question, along the lines of, “Well, Hitler wore shoes too, so should we all stop wearing shoes?”, and my response is always, “Quit being a smart ass and stop following Nazi-doctrine. Clothing yourself is one thing, but subscribing to a founding principle of Nazism is another story entirely”.

The difference between Bush and Obama is minimal. If you hate socialism, and government spending, where were you 8 years ago? The idea that supposed anti-socialists miss the Bush years only demonstrates their hypocrisy and adherence to silly rivalries rather than to the truth. Bush and Obama are two peas in a pod. Without the former, the latter would not exist. Massive spending, deference to Saudi Arabia, and an inability to make tough decisions and do what is right for the country (like ending Social Security and Medicare) are commonalities shared between the two thugs. The only thing that separates Bush and Obama are the morons who mindlessly wave their banners, and root for one to beat the other. Social issues, which are generally decided by the courts, rather than presidents, are the only issues in which the two drone-clones diverge. Of course, social issues are much more emotionally charged than financial policies, and are used as a way to make people forget that both parties are loyal to the same broken, stagnant, and corrupt system, which prior to the Great Depression was built upon individuality and personal responsibility, but has since been shaped around socialist concepts such as communalism and personal immunity.

Comedy is in hearing republicans rail against socialism and at the same time fight tooth and nail to prevent the defunding of Medicare. Medicare is one of the two major socialist programs that are bankrupting our country. Not only should supposed anti-socialists be fighting to defund Medicare, they should be fighting to do away with it entirely, in addition to Social (in)Security.

The democrats are equally as bad as republicans, in terms of socialist tendencies, but the difference is, they make no excuses for their behavior and proudly wear the socialist mantle. They are the ones who concocted Constitutional perversions such as Social Security and Medicare, and they are the ones who openly advocate “spending us out of debt”, which is technically impossible. What they essentially mean by that is “it takes money to make money”, but nowhere in their plan do they actually “make money”. They simply spend it, hoping that the people will continue on in their complacency without noticing that things, such as the US space shuttle program, have been ended forever, due to our ever-expanding debt, which means we will literally be dependent on the Russians to conduct our space missions. Granted, it could lead to the privatization of the US space program, which would basically be a phoenix rising from the ashes, but this is just one of the first examples of how destructive socialist/false-utopian policies are, and the ultimate enslavement to foreign nations that they will foster. This is a reality of our burgeoning debt that will continue to mount due to our government’s backwards ideologies, failed policies, and complete disregard for national bankruptcy.

Until a politician comes about and advocates policies that differ from the same old democrat and republican bullshit, we will continue to waste ourselves to death.

The following words have never rung more true:

“Democracy, while it lasts, is more bloody than either aristocracy or monarchy. Remember, democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There is never a democracy that did not commit suicide”. –John Adams

Political parties exist so politicians don’t have to stand on their own merit. They allow them to hide behind the veneer of false ideologies, and mob mentality, as opposed to embracing the empirical value of absolute truth, and individuality. Those who we call democrats and republicans are really nothing of the sort. They are opportunists and hypocrites who are most concerned with reelection and collecting their paychecks, rather than furthering the interests of our country, and strengthening our nation’s position for the benefit of ourselves and subsequent generations.

The concept of political ideology is destructive. Those who govern become more willing to stick to their stubborn ideologies than do what’s best for the country. Political ideology makes the People lazy and blind as to what’s going on right under their noses. They were given the Right to Vote so they could do what was best for their families, not so they could play childish team-sport games, and pursue silly rivalries, voting straight democrat or republican all the way down the ticket.

Political parties simplify politics and numb the Public to the reality of running a country. They become more concerned with holding power and rewarding their donors than balancing the budget, or moving the country forward.

The two cogs in the machine that created the mess in Washington are the democrats and republicans. Until the democratic party and the republican party are destroyed, and Americans start living under a party-less system, in which each candidate must stand on their own merit and ideals, without the protection of an antiquated political party, rather than recycling the democrats and republicans into new ineffective parties with different names, our country will continue its downward spiral. The system, as is, was the natural product of the party system and the ingrates who have been controlling and shaping it for the last century or two. They spend because it lures in votes, and sell off our country piece by piece because no one seems to care.

Incumbents were all outsiders at one point. Voting incumbents out to replace them with more democrats and republicans will do absolutely nothing to solve our problems.
