166 “Benched”

IN DEFENSE OF COMMON SENSE

“Benched….”

Hmmmmm…… Let’s see how this shakes out, folks. The average middle-income American family pays through the nose for health care. Estimates for a family of four hover around $20K a year. Given that hit, they stay home and cannot afford to travel a lot or take advantage of earned vacation time. So, they are benched.

Is that true of the people who gave us this disaster? Will Reid, Pelosi and Obama be relegated to staying within the confines of their hometowns? I doubt it. Will private jets stay on the ground? Oh, sure…

The inequity of all this is nothing short of appalling. It’s like the gift that keeps on giving, but in this case the gift is taking your money under the guise of “fairness.”

It is no surprise that the individual mandate is about to bite the dust. It baffles one’s mind that a Canadian company did the website planning. Even if it did go to bids, why on earth wouldn’t an administration holding sway over a flailing economy assign the work in another country?

Oh, someone will say that it makes sense since Canada has government health care, but that is little solace given the current mess. I wish I had some words of wisdom but wisdom and the current administration are at odds with another. As my grandmother would have said, “a fine kettle of fish….”
This of fish here is not days old. It’s years’ old. It stinks.

Somehow, some way, we need to pick away at this monstrous plan that threatens our very lives. In the meantime, we find ourselves “benched.” A grass roots movement is afoot, but it needs all the help it can get. Don’t forget that only one in three among the colonists supported going against King George. Far more than thirty percent of us oppose that lovely Christmas gift from the Democrats. What an affront the law is to anyone who believes in the goodness of the holiday. The Affordable Care Act is far from giving. It is taking of the first order.

Pray for America. She needs it.
