Couldn't agree more with what you are saying Lynda. It is more
important now than ever that we look out for ourselves and cut our
dependency on the government wherever we can. Rahm Emmanuel
stated in earlier speeches that healthcare and global warming were
areas where they could bring about a redistribution of wealth. I don't
think they ever were serious about the promises being made and had
greater goals in mind.
Now if they can get the census numbers to come in the way they want
and shift the population numbers to their districts and states they can
shift perhaps dozens of republican seats to the democrats for the next
10 years without having to win an election in a tough district to do it.
Now
that they have ACORN approved again to participate, I think we will see
them accomplish that goal.
I was also disappointed with the secret inclusion of college loans in the
healthcare bill. It has no relation and should have been a separately
debated
issue. With 2 kids in college, the idea that no one can compete with the > government for the loan dollars is scary. This means that you force nearly
every college student in the US to start out life indebted to the
government.
One more way of controlling us. It all reminds me of the old company store
model where you house the workers and provide the store for them to buy
from but the tab they run for everything is owed to the employer so you can
never quit.
