Republicans and Democrats Kill Free Health Care [Libertarian Party]

November 23, 2009

Dear Friend of Liberty,

I don’t know about you, but I’m getting a little tired of hearing Republicans act self-righteous about this health care bill. Of course it’s a terrible bill that will increase government and taxes and make our health care worse — but let’s take a short trip down memory lane.

In November 2003, almost all Republican senators voted to pass the “Prescription Drug and Medicare Improvement Act of 2003.” That was the horrible humongous Medicare expansion that ended up costing about $1.2 trillion. It was a huge federal intrusion into health care. Republican darlings like Kay Bailey Hutchison and James Inhofe were among those who voted for it.

Now Republicans are saying they oppose government expansion into health care. What a joke. A few years ago they thought it was the greatest thing in the world. Messages being sent out by the Republican National Committee are telling people that the current bill is bad because it will “cut Medicare”!

There’s only one party that really opposes government health care, and that’s the Libertarian Party. We’ve always been against it, and we’ll always be against it. But that doesn’t mean we want to force your health care into the hands of big insurance companies or big pharmaceutical companies, or subject it to the monopolizing effects of today’s licensing laws.

As our platform states, “We favor restoring and reviving a free market health care system. We recognize the freedom of individuals to determine the level of health insurance they want, the level of health care they want, the care providers they want, the medicines and treatments they will use and all other aspects of their medical care, including end-of-life decisions.”

Thanks to everyone who called your Congressman a few weeks ago. The bill still got passed by the House, but maybe it will be weakened or killed in the Senate. I certainly hope so.

Sincerely,

Wes Benedict
Executive Director
Libertarian National Committee

How To Apply The Free Market To The Government

The Proposal”
             
When a company falls on difficult times, one of the things that seems to happen is they reduce their staff and workers. The remaining workers must find ways to continue to do a good job or risk that their job would be eliminated as well.

   Wall street, and the media normally congratulate the CEO for making this type of “tough decision”, and his board of directors gives him a big bonus.

Our government should not be immune from similar risks.

Therefore:    
I. Reduce the size of the House of Representatives from the current 435 members to 218 members.

II.    Reduce Senate members from 100 to 50 (one per State). Then, reduce their staff by 25%.

Immediate Tax Payer Savings attributed to:

$44,108,400 for elimination of base pay for congress. (267 members X $165,200 pay/member/ yr. Not counting their expenses.)

$97,175,000 for elimination of their staff. (estimate $1.3 Million in staff per each member of the House, and $3 Million in staff per each member of the Senate every year)

$240,294 for the reduction in remaining staff by 25%.

$7,500,000,000 reduction in pork barrel ear-marks each year. (those members whose jobs are gon e. Current estimates for total government pork earmarks are at $15 Billion/yr).

The remaining representatives would need to work smarter and improve efficiencies. It might even be in their best interests to work together for the good of our country!

We may also expect that smaller committees might lead to a more efficient resolution of issues as well. It might even be easier to keep track of what your representative is doing.
I.        Congress has more tools available to do their jobs than it had back in 1911 when the current number of representatives was established. (telephone, computers, internet, airline transportation, cell phones to name a few)

Note:
Congress did not hesitate to head home when it was a holiday, when the nation needed a real fix to the economic problems. Also, we have 3 senators that
have not been doing their jobs for the past 18+ months (on the Presidential campaign trail) and still they all have been accepting full pay. This evidence supports justification for a reduction in senators & members of congress. We obvioulsly don’t need them to be at work on the job!  

Summary of opportunity:

$ 44,108,400 reduction of congress members.

$282,100, 000 for elimination of the reduced house member staff.

$150,000,000 for elimination of reduced senate member staff.

$59,675,000 for 25% reduction of staff for remaining house members.

$37,500,000 for 25% reduction of staff for remaining senate members.

$7,500,000,000 reduction in pork added to bills by the reduction of congress members.

$8,073,383,400 per year, estimated total savings. (that’s 8-BILLION just to start!)

Big business does these types of cuts all the time.

If Congresspersons were required to serve 20, 25 or 30 years (like everyone else) in order to collect any retirement benefits, tax payers could save a bundle.

    As it is they all Now get full retirement after serving only ONE term.

The Country of TEXOARKLA

Archivado en: Comentario — alvarezgalloso @ 10:31 pm

Subject: Fwd: The Country of TEXOARKLA

  In case things get a little tougher during the next few months, we In
  LOUISIANA, TEXAS , OKLAHOMA & ARKANSAS have a plan.

  Maybe you don’t know it, but LOUISIANA , TEXAS , OKLAHOMA , &
  ARKANSAS have a legal right to secede from the Union . (Reference the
  Texas/Louisiana-American Annexation Treaty of 1848.)

  Us TEXOARKLANS love y’all Americans, but we’ll probably have to take
  action since Barack Obama won the election and is now the President of the
  U.S.A. We’ll miss ya’ll though.

  Here is what can happen:

  1. Barack Hussein Obama, after becoming the President of the United
  States , begins to try and create a socialist country, then TEXAS ,
  LOUISIANA , ARKANSAS and OKLAHOMA announces that they are going to secede
  from the Union .

  2. George W. Bush becomes the President of the Republic of TEXOARKLA
  . You might think that he doesn’t talk too pretty, but we haven’t had
  another terrorist attack and the economy was fine until the effects of
  Barney Frank and the Democrats lowering the qualifications for home loans
  came home to roost.

  So what does TEXOARKLA have to do to survive as a Republic?

  1. NASA is just south of Houston , Texas . We will control the space
  industry.

  2. We refine over 90% of the gasoline in the United States .

  3. Defense Industry–we have over 65% of it. The term “Don’t mess
  with TEXAS ,” will take on a whole new meaning.

  4. Oil – we can supply all the oil that the Republic of TEXOARKLA
  will need for the next 300 years. What will the other states do? Gee, we
  don’t know. Why not ask Obama?

  5. Natural Gas – again, we have all we need and it’s too bad about
  those Northern States. John Kerry and AlGore will just have to figure out a
  way to keep them warm…

  6. Computer Industry – we lead the nation in producing computer chips
  and communications equipment – small companies like Texas Instruments, Dell
  Computer, EDS, Raytheon, National Semiconductor, Motorola, Intel, AMD,
  Nortel, Alcatel, etc. The list goes on and on.

  7. Medical Care – We have the research centers for cancer research,
  the best burn centers and the top trauma units in the world, as well as
  other large health centers.

  8. We have enough colleges to keep educating and making smarter
  citizens: University of Texas , Texas A&M, Texas Tech, University of
  Oklahoma , Oklahoma State University, UL-Lafayette, UL-Monroe, University of
  Arkansas , LSU, Arkansas State University , Baylor, Rice, TCU, SMU and MANY
  more.

  9. We have an intelligent and energetic work force and it isn’t
  restricted by a bunch of unions. Here in TEXOARKLA, we are a Right-to-Work
  State and, therefore, it’s every man and woman for themselves. We just go
  out and get the job done.. And if we don’t like the way one company
  operates, we get a job somewhere else.

  10. We have essential control of the paper, plastics, and insurance
  industries, etc.

  11. In case of a foreign invasion, we have the TEXOARKLA National
  Guard, the TEXOARKLA Air National Guard, and several military bases. We
  don’t have an Army, but since everybody down here has at least six guns and
  a pile of ammo, we can raise an Army in 24 hours if we need one. If the
  situation really gets bad, we can always call the Department of Public
  Safety and ask them to send over the Texas Rangers.

  12. We are totally self-sufficient in beef, poultry, hogs, and
  several types of grain, fruit and vegetables and let’s not forget seafood
  from the Gulf. Also, everybody down here knows how to cook them so that
  they taste good. We don’t need any food from somewhere else.

  13. FIVE of the ten largest cities in the United States and THIRTY
  TWO of the 100 largest cities in the United States are located in TEXOARKLA.
  And TEXOARKLA also has more land than California , New York , New Jersey ,
  Connecticut , Delaware , Hawaii , Massachusetts , Maryland , Rhode Island
  and Vermont combined.

  14. Trade: FIVE of the ten largest ports in the United States are
  located in TEXOARKLA.

  15. We also manufacture cars down here, but we don’t need to. You
  see, nothing rusts in TEXOARKLA so our vehicles stay beautiful and run well
  for decades.

  This just names a few of the items that will keep the Republic of
  TEXOARKLA in good shape. There isn’t a thing out there that we need and
  don’t have.

  Now to the rest of you folks in the United States under President
  Obama:

  Since you won’t have the refineries to get gas for your cars, only
  President Obama will be able to drive around in his big 9 mpg SUV. The rest
  of the United States will have to walk or ride bikes.

  You won’t have any TV as the Space Center in Houston will cut off
  satellite communications.

  You won’t have any natural gas to heat your homes, but since AlGore
  has predicted global warming, you will not need the gas as long as you
  survive the 2000 years it will take to get enough heat from Global Warming.

  In other words, the rest of ya’ll in the USA are screwed!

  Signed, The People of TEXOARKLA

  P.S. This is not a threatening letter – just a note to give you
  something to think about!

  Sleep well tonight ’cause the eyes of TEXOARKLA are on YOU!!

Ten Commandments According To Obama [Unknown Source]

Archivado en: Comentario — alvarezgalloso @ 5:39 pm
Tags:

I.Thou shalt have no God in America, except for me. For we are no longer a Christian nation and, after all, I am the chosen One. (And like God, I do not have a birth certificate.)

II. Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, unless it is my face carved on Mt. Rushmore.

III. Thou shalt not utter my middle name in vain (or in public). Only I can say Barack Hussein Obama.

IV. Remember tax day, April 15th, to keep it holy.

V. Honour thy father and thy mother until they are too old and sick to care for. They will cost our public-funded health-care system too much money.

VI. Thou shalt not kill, unless you have an unwanted, unborn baby. For it would be an abomination to punish your daughter with a baby.

VII. Thou shalt not commit adultery if you are conservative or a Republican. Liberals and Democrats are hereby forgiven for all of their infidelity and immorality, but the careers of conservatives will be forever destroyed.

VIII. Thou shalt not steal, until you’ve been elected to public office. Only then is it acceptable to take money from hard-working, successful citizens and give it to those who do not work, illegal immigrants, or those who do not have the motivation to better their own lives.

IX. Thou shalt not discriminate against thy neighbor unless they are conservative, Caucasian, or Christian.

X. Thou shalt not covet because it is simply unnecessary. I will place such a heavy tax burden on those that have achieved the American Dream that, by the end of my term as President, nobody will have any wealth or material goods left for you to covet.
