Should you be forced to take care of your neighbor and his/her children's health care costs?
Socialism or Democracy, you choose.
Would you allow the US government to monitor and decide for you your intake of salt, vegetables, fruit etc.? How about supporting mandated exercise....?
Folks, remember state rep. Ted Mayall from Mississippi who sponsored House Bill 282 that basically stated that it would give the state the power to impose fines or revoke licenses of food establishments that served obese people....?
Prof. Walter E Williams drew this argument about the law requiring both motorcyclists and bicyclists to wear helmets and I quote from his article:- After all, if one is exercises his liberty to ride without a helmet, and has an accident and becomes a vegetable, society has to bear the expense of taking of him. The FACT that an obese person becomes ill, or a cyclist has an accident, and becomes a burden on taxpayers who MUST bear the expense of taking care of him, is not a problem of LIBERTY. It is a problem of SOCIALISM where one is forced to take care of another.There is no moral argument that justifies using coercive powers of government to force one person to bear the expense of taking care of another. If that person is too resolute in his refusal to do so, what is the case for imposing fines, imprisonment or death?
Forcing one person to bear the burden of health care costs for another is not only a moral question but a major threat to our personal liberty.
Folks, as stated before, this site is not for the moderate, the leftists and the cowards. Membership is for those of us who want to protects our freedoms, put America first.

People have been lulled into a feeling that if something ever goes wrong, "the government will take care of me." That is not what the government is in place to do. Actually, the (federal) government is in place to do very little compared to its current powers. It is after all the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, not the Socialist State of America. We have given up too much power to our federal government and they are abusing it to extreme. Many of our promems stem from having the federal government over see programs and problems that either the state should run or should be gotten rid of all together. States rights are trampled on constantly, and we compound the problem by groveling at the foot of the federal gov for emergengy funds every time we have a problem. If we could fix our our financial situation and operate in the black, instead of the deep red, we may be able to change that. We need to CUT THE FAT!!! cALIFORNIA IS TOO FAT!! Our programs and bureaucracy have become so bloated that we cannot see our own feet. We need to streamline our government, our state government. Get our state workers working hard for us again. Not just passing time until it is time to go home. If this offends you, tough. Everyone has made a wise crack about state workers before, and why? Because its true, they are lazy and they, generally, don't work very hard. Why don't they work very hard. Because they cant get fired. It seems like it takes an act of congress to get rid of dead weight. That is ridiculous.
