More on healthcare reform

This entire “reform” was really about taking total control of this country for the government. That is, those in office telling us how to live our lives. After all, if the goal was really providing healthcare to those who need it, they could have taken a post-it note and written “Anyone who wants Medicaid, come sign up.” We already have the infrastructure and policies in place for the “public option.” This whole deal was about plunging us into full-fledged socialism.


Socialism= dictatorship by committee.


What is in that thousands of pages? I know of some who have actually read it. Here is one example; every parent of a new-born baby will be visited by a social worker to make sure they know what they are doing and taking care of the baby instead of abusing it. How would you like that? A government employee comes into your home without just cause of wrongdoing or a court order, presuming you are guilty of child abuse until you prove you are not. This is a direct violation of our Constitutional Fifth Amendment rights!


Did you know that this all comes back to evolution? If evolution is true, than “right and wrong” are constantly changing, evolving. Society decides what is good and evil. Thus, those in office (being smarter and better educated, of course, or survival of the fittest wouldn’t have allowed them to lead), have the right to tell us what is evil (not buying into insurance, having too many babies, homeschooling, preaching from the Bible, witnessing, going to church, saying anything negative about the president….) and what is good (saving the whales, recycling, abortion, euthanasia, …). The things in the Constitution, and especially in the Bill of Rights, only apply to the 18th century and have nothing to do with us.


However, if Creation is true, there is a God who has told us what good and evil is (Thou shalt not kill. Thou shalt not steal. Thou shalt not be selfish. Thou shalt not lie. Thou shalt not be mean. Thou shalt not commit adultery. See Galatians, Ephesians, and Exodus). He is the only One with the right to make those decisions. These standards are universal. Our founding Fathers searched out these universal truths and codified them in the document we call the Constitution with the addition of the first ten amendments we call the Bill of Rights.


Honestly, do you really want to live in a society where the leaders do not believe in absolute right and wrong? Many citizens say they don’t believe in absolute morals, but I bet they would change their tune quick if the government decided their particular group was bad and needed exterminating.


And what is to keep our government from making such a decision? Without the foundation of Biblical morals, there are no restraints whatsoever. That is what this whole “healthcare reform” is really about. This group of people thinks that, because they are in charge of the most powerful country in the world, they have the right to decide good and evil. Why should they respect private property rights, parental rights or the right to life? There are NO controls; no reason to acknowledge such rights.


Why not kill the handicapped?
Why not steal private property?
Why not lie?
Why not force people to hold the jobs you want them to hold?
Why not force people to marry who you want them to marry?
Why not force them to live where you want them to live?
Why not remove all foods from the market except the kinds you like or think people should be eating?
Why not keep all the technology to yourself?
Why not let elderly people die? (It’s much cheaper than treating them)
Why not force women to have abortions? Or even kill their wanted babies if they are inconvenient?


Why not?


What is to stop them?
