Remain Vigilant!

While enjoying the holiday season, I implore each of you to remain vigilant. Do not think that while we are all in the festive mood, politicians won’t try to take advantage of it. The Senate has begun the debate on their version of the Healthcare bill. Senate Majority leaders say they are still confident of getting a bill passed before the holiday break. A bill, which if passed, will not make any of us merry and bright. Remember, the cost estimates you hear are only estimates. There is no way of knowing the true cost of the Healthcare bill, until details are released. I’ll bet one of my Christmas gifts that these details won’t be released until right before any vote, or perhaps even afterwards. Whoa… I just had a V8 moment. You remember those commercials where people suddenly realized something profound, and slapped themselves in the head? It just struck me. If the Healthcare bill does pass, I believe it would become effective in 2013. I’ll bet your sweet butt, we will be taxed and begin paying for this in 2010. Damn, we start paying for something now, that we won’t have for another 3 years.

Let me put it another way. You go into a car dealership. You like the car you have but the government mandates you buy another one or face a huge fine. You go through all the paperwork and financing, once again because the government says you will. Your first installment will be due in 30 days. You pay these installments for three years, then you come back and pick up your car, all while your payments continue to increase until who knows when. It doesn’t make sense. Lets get this bill stopped in the Senate, or we’ll have to start making those payments.

Hey, what about the news from this past week. No, not Tiger Woods (use the blogs). I’m talking about the global warming scam, WOW! If true, it just goes to show that a theory is not a fact. I’m not going to be one of the guys who proclaim, “I told you so.” I do want to focus on the fact that there was so much money changing hands based on theories that might or might not be sound. Once again, there was an elite group of individuals and politicians who made a financial killing. Even with all of this information coming out, Politicians will continue to try to force Cap & Trade through for a vote. They can’t admit to being wrong. There’s too much money riding on this, our money. People, we must become more knowledgeable. We need to ask questions and demand answers before our money melts and goes away, like they would have us believe about those icebergs in the arctic.
