Government Healthcare

From where I stand this much I understand: that we need to examine the healthcare system that we currently have today and ask how we can improve on it to include those who are too poor to afford health insurance.

Rushing through a piece of healthcare legislation that nobody has had time to read and analyze is not a solution to the stated problem. This is what the Democrats are trying to do. Rush this legislation just as they did with the Stimulus package. Their claim is that if they don't get this legislation through by a certain date, it would mean that all of America will go through a catastrophic and debilitating event. And we can't have that.

It is a game that these people in Congress are playing and it is the health and welfare of the American people they are playing with. The Democratic majority's agenda is aided by the incessant harping by Barack Hussein Obama. He injected healthcare in his July 4th speech. He injected healthcare in his Michigan speech. I could be a smart mouth here and claim that the reason why his teleprompter crashed to pieces was that it could no longer withstand the lies Obama's telling.

What makes Congress think that the government can do a better job at administering healthcare rather than the private sector when the evidence of their ineptitude and mismanagement is shown all over the Medicare - Medicaid programs not to mention Social Security that is nearly broke?

What makes people who believe in government think that their government can do a better job at administering healthcare rather than private industry when all they have to do is to look at how the United States Post Office has gone broke, the DMV is totally inefficient, and the state of California is bankrupt - all totally run by the government?

Are people so ignorant and uninformed so as to give the government such powers to exercise over them? Are people not aware of the healthcare situation in Canada? In the UK? In Europe? Are people not aware of how inefficient socialized medicine can get when there is no more money to spend? Are people ready to pay more and more taxes to prop up the government and its programs?

What is wrong with people's thinking? Have Americans stopped thinking critically? Rationally? Objectively?
