“The Ghost of Christmas Yet to Cometakes the form of a grim spectre, robed in black, who does not speak and whose body is entirely hidden except for one pointing hand. This spirit frightens Scrooge more than the others, and harrows him with a vision of a future Christmas with the Cratchit family bereft of Tiny Tim. A rich miser, whose death saddens nobody and whose home and corpse have been robbed by ghoulish attendants, is revealed to be Scrooge himself: this is the fate that awaits him.”  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Christmas_Carol#Stave_IV:_The_Last_of_the_Spirits

There are many promises from the Congress and the President about how wonderful Insurance Reform (formerly Health Care Reform) will be for the American people.

If we want an insight into what will likely happen if these folks get their way, we need only look at what they are doing right now.

Over ten million American seniors – myself included – are enrolled in Medicare Advantage plans.  These are plans that mirror the program the proponents of reform say the “government option” will look like.  So, you’d think the Pres and Pelosi would hold them out as a stellar example.

Not so.  Instead they want to elimimate them and toss ten million Americans out on their keesters – OUCH!  What;s going on.  Here’s a program that delivers ALL of the benefits that are claimed to accrue from “reform” but the reformers want to terminate – along with a bunch of us old folks – because the program is “too expensive.”   Just like the hip replacement I anticipate in about ten years when I’m 80 will be too expensive because the wonderful government program needs the money for something else.

Wake up America!  The issue isn’t helath care, cap and trade, or immigration, the issue is LIBERTY.  The Founders of America broke with England because the British government confiscated the liberty of individuals through oppressive legislation and governance.

While we all want improvements to the way we deliver and pay for our health care, few truly want the Government to take over.  Say NO to any national health insurance scheme that directly or indirectly through “co-ops” cedes control to any agency or organization other than YOU and your family.

Beware of promises that are promised only to win your support.  If the Pelosi/Obama plan passes your future health care will be diminished as will you LIBERTY and your personal economy will suffer severly.
