Healthcare “reform” is not your job. Raising an army and protecting the country — and its inherent sovereignty — IS your job.
In none of the enumerated powers (Article I, Section 8 of the U.S. Constitution) do we find anything about regulating not only the healthcare industry but, as you are attempting, the individual healthcare choices [...]

My view is that NOTHING is wrong in America — not in the REAL America.
It’s the politics in Washington that is trampling on the Constitution, spending us into the poor house, and padding the pockets of special interests that’s wrong. The following is a piece from Glenn Beck that lays it out pretty nicely. There [...]

As the top 2% makes less money, which is now occurring, then the 80% slice of tax generation will decline. What would be done then — raise taxes?
