Health Care Reform

9/4/2009

0 Comments

 
President Obama will deliver a message concerning health care reform next Wednesday, a day after Congress resumes session. We must keep the conversation flowing. People need to know what this kind of reform will do to the finances of future generations.  The non-partisan Congressional Budget Office says the current House plan would increase the deficit by $239 billion over 10 years. The deficit is the amount added to the debt each year. When we already owe over $11,000,000,000,000 (not including unfunded mandates), why would we institute a program that would increase our spending by so much? Why would ask our children to pay for our responsibility?

This is not the federal government’s job. James Madison would not be able to point out a power in the Constitution that gives Congress this power, as evident by his statement, “I cannot undertake to lay my finger on that article of the Constitution which granted a right to Congress of expending, on objects of benevolence, the money of their constituents.”  We can do a more effective job of helping the poor individually and through private charities than the federal government, as long as the federal government preserves an environment that fosters economic freedom.

We should be able to purchase insurance across state lines, buy group insurance for groups other than employers, and get the same tax treatment regardless of how we purchase our insurance.

Both of our senators and Congressman Mollohan have voiced support for this government takeover of health care. Please keep contacting them and keep the conversation flowing with your family and friends.
