Why must it cost $75-150 for a five-minute consultation with a doctor?

“ObamaCare” is coming. The House will get the votes and the Senate will use reconciliation. This is inevitable.

For a over a year, a great portion of the American polity has dedicated its time to addressing those two statements. Thousands of speeches, millions of pages of text and who-knows-how-many bytes of data have been generated to express the feelings of those on both sides of the aisle. Our political system has ground nearly to a halt amidst the debate.

Health care reform is not a new issue. Teddy Roosevelt sparred with his opponents on the topic over century ago. Harry Truman tried reforming the system. Bill and Hillary Clinton tried it. Since we’re still talking about it, I think we know just how much success any of those folks had.

What does the wino do when he has consumed all his wine? He begs others for theirs. Rather than a world leader– we will be a nation at the behest of others.

This holiday season, as millions of Americans decorate their homes, exchange gifts, volunteer at local shelters, and spend time with their loved ones, let us consider our government’s wish list: Fed-induced monetary “stimulus” and trillion dollar health care reform. Both big ticket items and both seemingly paved with good intentions. Who wouldn’t want a strong economy and affordable health care? But, someone should tell this current administration that there is no Santa Claus and you just can’t get something for nothing.

Unfortunately, the bureaucrats in Washington just don’t get it.They continuously have said deficit spending would revive our economy, as would artificially low benchmark interest rates.

I am always troubled by those in government claiming they have a moral imperative to enact this or that policy. A little digging often reveals that their motives are more self serving than moral.

Such is the case with liberal Democrats and their insistence that the moral laws of the universe - laws that have been with us since God breathed life into man (or as some would have it when we rose from the primordial soup) - command Government to supply every citizen (and many that aren’t) with health insurance.

HipHopRepublican.com recently sat down with Sophia Davis for an excusive interview. Sophia, is a 23 years old Capitol Hill staffer for Senator George V. Voinovich. In this interview Sophia Davis talks about her views on Healthcare, the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and her future plans in Washington, DC.

As you may have already seen, the media is abuzz with news of town hall meetings, “death panels” , and the “emergence of socialized medicine”. But what us generally-healthy teenagers don’t take the time to consider is that the health care debate (and some would say debacle) is important to everyone, regardless of age. It’s an intricate issue, with long-lasting ideological, moral, fiscal, and political implications.

I rarely shop at Whole Foods, which has two locations in the Twin Cities. If I am looking for organic foods, I tend to look for them at the regular grocery store I shop at or go to Trader Joes, which one person described as the “poor man’s Whole Foods.”

But I might consider shopping at the grocery chain more in the near future because of the insane and asinine boycott going on by some on the Left.

The repetitive harmonious theme from Barack Obama’s presidential campaign was “hope” and “change”. Two hundred days into the new administration, change has occurred, but there has been little, if any hope at all. It started with a stimulus bill that has done very little to revive a frail and sinking economy and a bailout of automobile industry’s that came at the expense of taxpayer’s money. With the recent push by the White House and a Democrat-controlled Congress to overhaul the nation’s health care system, the angry outcry of many Americans is being heard across our vast country. The simple fact is that people are not thrilled with the government interfering with their lives, especially with their health care.

My fellow Republicans, Independents and Democrats, we are witnessing in the Republican Party a severe identity crisis. Conflicts exist amongst moderate and conservative members of the party, and a lingering stereotype of Republicans only caring about the almighty dollar. There are stigmas of greed, corruption and lack of compassion for everyday hard working Americans. Throughout the election as I interviewed New Yorkers on the streets of Harlem on 125th, the common theme and description was that a typical Republican is typically old, white, wealthy and believing in a free market system, only for personal gain. As …

“A disproportionately large share of U.S companies’ health care costs stem from the treatment of a small group of employees and dependents who have chronic or catastrophic illnesses, according to an analysis by consultancy Watson Wyatt Worldwide - April 26, 2006.”
Yet, healthcare in America as we know it is poised for a radical and comprehensive changed that Americans neither fully understand nor can imagine the consequences. The U.S. Congress has let Americans down in this area and both Republican and Democrats must share the blame. The House has passed legislation for the past 10 years to assist …

We have spent the last six weeks sending this out to every newspaper in the USA we could find and have posted it on blog’s everywhere we could. Please cut, paste and send this to anyone who is undecided if you think this will help … perhaps they will put weight into the testimony of someone who is living the health care plan Senator Obama is offering and how it is not working for us. God bless and good luck on Tuesday.
 
To Whom It May Concern,

 
We have watched with great interest over the past year the on going …
