An operation

“I need an operation but I don’t have any money. Obama care will pay for it.” Why not? Why should 40% of Americans that think other Americans should pay for their operations out of their hard-earned money? Why so much support for Obama’s new socialized medicine? America now tilts toward Europe’s way of suppressing self-reliance and freedom; this after we liberated the West and East from oppression in two World Wars. How ironic! We are now on the one road of serfdom that traverses both the East and the West.

Today, 3/23 in 1775, Patrick Henry delivered his great speech ending with “Give me Liberty or Give me Death,” in St. John’s Church, in Richmond, VA. After hearing a citizen in a free America that a revolutionary patriot wanted to create, demand someone pay for her operation because she chose to not practice self-reliance, I suggest another operation. On this historic signing away of ‘traditional’ America, some patriot should pound a second crack into the Liberty Bell in Philadelphia, PA. A formal ceremony would be nice! One crack represents our past, but the new splinter will aptly represent the two Americas that have been created by Obama care and the liberal Democrat government’s take-over of a citizen’s life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

A basic problem of government and history is: How far does a government depend upon psychological factors for the maintenance of its rule, and how far do psychological factors depend upon economic conditions and political power? The progressive Democrats cleverly created and tapped into panic during the recent economic crisis in order to gain power. They have reached beyond the limits of our Constitution and Republican form of government. Their vocal minority has ruled over the will of majority. It now makes perfect sense for some who have, thanks to responsible and moral living, to pay for the operations of others. To whose liberty and whose death would Patrick Henry now refer?
