We The Dumbasses

A few days and it's done. A few days, a barrage of media panic and a bunch of self-serving politicians is all it took to change the United States from a country whose purpose was individual freedom to a country whose focus is socialism. For all intents and purposes the Mortgage Industy is now under government control with the Banking Industry following close behind. The cost so far? $400,000 USD for every man, woman and child in the United States (not sure if illegals are included in this tally).

Health Care will shortly become socialized as the push for all OTC drugs for children under the age of six to be removed will happen. In one fell sweep many Americans will have to forfeit food, heat, rent, etc. in order to take a child to the doctor to be prescribed medications for a simple cold or fever. The kicker is many of these medications were formerlly available by prescription only so they have been tested. My inner smart ass says that any bill that goes through should include a provision that all health care providers must treat all children under the age of six free of charge with no reimbursement from the insurance companies or the government. Let's just see how much they truly believe the bullshit they are spewing.

The worst part of this is that in the grand scheme of things life will not noticeably change...except at tax time. At first most of these changes will be inconveniences and we will become accustomed to them. As we do the changes will move further away from individual choices and closer to socialist choices. We are giving up all of our freedom because of minor inconveniences, routine cycling of the markets and just plain laziness.

We, the people, are a bunch of dumbasses!!!
