I am compiled to blog today, because this monstrosity, this travesty of a health care bill has been passed early this morning. This is a bill that is as un-American as it can get. What bothers me the most is the individual mandate on Americans to purchase healthcare from a private company. The founding fathers started a revolution on much less than this.
The second thing that bothers me is the lie that Democrats are propagating about how this will reduce the deficit. I don't know what alternative universe they are living in, but there is no government program on this earth that has been able to contain costs. Government programs and entitlements are like a cancer. They always grow and never die.
And of course, many companies will just opt to pay the fine and take their employees off the healthcare benefits.
There is still hope. Already we are hearing that House Democrats are fearing a tough fight in conference and don't think this will reconciled between the House and the Senate before the State of the Union address.
One can only hope this bill dies an ignominious, slow death.
