Obama breach of trust.

Obama and the neo-socialist left really messed up this week. In a major breach of trust they floated a idea of making Veterans pay for their continuing health care for service connected disabilities. If there was one group the left needed to keep on their side its the military. The military support groups were on the left's butt in a big way.

First of all it's the employers responsibility to take care of work related injuries. Mine and your personal insurance never covers these types of injuries. After the member retires or is discharged from the service these injuries are called pre-existing condition and again its not covered. That means the service member will be required to pay for it. Thanks for your service dude. Sorry for your injuries, here's your bill. So much for a enlistment contract.

If insurance carriers are required to provide coverage this will lead to major price increases to cover their expanded cost. Battlefield injuries are devastating to the member and expensive to treat. Many insurers may just fold and get out of the business due to these cost. That of course means the taxpayer will again have to pick up the slack while we are losing our own choices for health care coverage due to this government interference.

Young men and women thinking about serving will think again about the cost. If the government can bail out on their responsibilities now, what will they fail you on out in the future. You just won't be able to trust them. Members who are serving now will leave while the getting out is good and they are still healthy. It just won't be worth the risk.

This, of course, is a strategy of the left to weaken the military. If they all leave they can form their civilian corps without interference or worry the military might not back their power play when the public revolts. Only their faithful will serve as the brown shirts to keep the public in line.

Thankfully a few courageous officers and enlisted folks are challenging Obama right to be president in court. As more military folks see this the voice of opposition in the military will grow louder. I foresee a major effort by the left to block the military vote to try and offset their outrage. Good luck with that.

We are heading for a major confrontation and the left is running as fast as they can to prepare for it. Are you ready? Where will you stand? As for me and my house we stand for the Constitution, God, Liberty, and our Country!

How evil is the left?

Yesterday, I got a lesson on just how evil the left really is. As many of you know I work as a paramedic in a hospital. I was taking a pregnant woman up to the labor and delivery floor. As we walked down the halls her husband complained that they had waited at LBJ hospital for four hours after being triaged and they had not been taken to L & D. LBJ is one of the county hospitals in Harris county Texas. He then espoused on how great the free medical care in Canada was. I tried to explain to him that nothing is free and waiting for months for medical test and surgery is not great. Canadians with the cash or insurance regularly come to the United States instead of waiting. As I was leaving after dropping her off he said it was so great that doctors made house calls to weed out people who didn't need to go to the hospital. I told him there wasn't enough doctors to make house calls for 300 million americans. His reply was that they should. I said doctors were not slaves. Thats when he said, "well, they should be".

Well, they should be? How bad has America gotten that what was once the most respected of professions are now to be enslaved? I am all for people getting good health care, but enslaving doctors and all medical staff? I don't think so! You and I have the right to health care, but we also have the duty to pay for it. I don't have to pay for your care. I am a free man, just like all the other 300 million plus american citizens. No one has the right to enslave another so they don't have to pay what they owe. No one has the right to put a gun to my head and say give me your money. That's called armed robbery. When the government does it it's called taxes.

This is what's wrong with the left and the entitlement class that they have created. They think they have the right to enslave others to do their will or fulfill their needs. This is why socialism is just plain evil. Now we are faced with what happens when folks forget their history. The left is prepared to enslave others all in the name of their needs. The former Republican party freed the slaves. The Democratic party formed the KKK to suppress the former slaves. The democrats then formed the entitlement class with the New Deal and the Great Society programs.

Now the socialist now have control of the government. The Republicans lost because they tried to become democrat lite to appeal to the entitlement class. They didn't point out as the economy tanked that the democrats implemented the policies that led to the foreclosure crisis. When the republicans made a weak attempt to reign in the spending it was the democrats that blocked it. The rest is history and you and I are paying for it.
