Chief Justice Roberts has ruled for Obama Care and has handed over control to 18% of a once vibrant private economy to the government. There was only 50% of the private economy left for plucking. Now there is only 35% left standing.
The voting public did everything short of insurrection to keep Obama Care from becoming law. Massachusetts even voted into Senator Kennedy's old seat a republican to stop this poorly thought out bill. The Tea Party charged into the 2010 election motivated by this bill and stopping it and Obama by turning control of the house of representatives over to the republicans.
Has the Roberts Supreme Court helped Obama with the ruling or has he placed the last nail into his re-election coffin.
I believe he has made health care the number one issue facing Obama and Romney. Romney has gone on record as opposing it and promises to repeal it as his first act as president. We know where Obama stands.
How will the markets react? Shifting the costs of health care onto the taxpayers from big business should be good for business, but bad for the taxpayer. Trouble is the taxpayer base is shrinking as are the dollars they are willing and able to pitch in for the good of the country.
My question for you to ponder is: If the government goes broke are the people broke, too? And if the people are broke how can the government thrive?
I think it is time for the states to control how their citizenry's taxes are distributed. Taxation should be a local issue and then trickle up to the state and then trickle to the federal government last. It is backwards. It goes to the bottom feeders in the federal government first and trickles down to the subjects who pay. And now we find that Obama's stimulus went to his supporters overwhelmingly and did not find its way to the red states. Good-bye republic.
Time for a change? You bet it is.
