The National Despair
Deepens
Last
week’s two monumental Supreme Court decisions - upholding ObamaCare and striking
down almost all of the Arizona immigration law - have only further alienated a
majority of Americans from the D.C. establishment and deepened the underlying
gloomy sense that the nation is careening into unknown territory. A stagnant
economy, poor job prospects and two major parties that seem to talk past
most people have deeply soured many Americans; pessimism has replaced the
normal inherent American sense of optimism. This is the mood as we enter the
final four months of the presidential and congressional campaigns. [more...]
Killing the American
System of Healthcare
The
Affordable Care Act was upheld because the bill was based on Congress’ ability
to levy taxes? There were no taxes mentioned in the bill, and for the past two
years advocates of ObamaCare swore that the tenets of the bill were not based
on taxing Americans - what a lie. Now that this malignant law has passed, we
are about to learn the extent of the disease that will ultimately kill the
American system of healthcare (by destroying the doctor patient relationship on
the one hand, and eliminating both the doctors’ freedom to treat, and patients’
freedom to choose treatment options on the other). For those who thought they
were going to get good healthcare, they are in for a rude awakening. The
Americans for Tax Reform highlights 20
new or higher taxes that will affect American families and small
businesses. [Go

The Last Independence
Day Celebration
By
Doug
Johnson
We
have just seen actions taken that will assure us of the imminent collapse of our
nation if we do not stop the madness now and begin the turnaround to save our
nation. July 4, 2012 may be the last Independence Day celebration in America as
we know it. This past week the Supreme Court ruled on the Affordable Health
Care law (excuse me while I choke on the word "affordable") which is
also known as ObamaCare. This decision will go down in history as a travesty
just like the Dred Scott decision and other awful mistakes the court has made
over the years. This will go down as the decision that ripped freedom from the
hands of the American people and sold our future to a limited few who will
inflict the worst kind of tyranny imaginable upon the American people. [more...]
The Supreme Court's
Decision on The Affordable Care Act and How it Affects You
Last
week's Supreme Court ruling to keep The Patient Protection and Affordable Care
Act in place could prove to be one of the costliest decisions the court has
made in years. Health care premiums are rising about 9 to 15 percent a year.
And with future costs of ObamaCare uncertain or not clarified, there’s a
possibility that companies, their employees and individuals will find premiums
becoming unaffordable. Even though the law will provide insurance in 2014 to
the roughly 30 million Americans who are now uninsured, I see it as too costly.
Health care costs will continue to grow in the coming years. It will impede the
ability of some businesses to afford health care plans for their employees and
will do additional damage to our health care system. [more...]
Is Obamacare Redistributing Wealth to Big Labor?
By
Dave
Bego
It has become obvious that the SEIU has a major interest
in the healthcare legislation. Although the SEIU is a major player in the
public union market, it is also one of the largest unions in the private
sector. Furthermore, the largest share of its private sector members are
healthcare employees: nurses, hospital staff, janitors, and home healthcare
workers. Is it any wonder, then, that President Obama’s primary piece of
legislation was Obamacare? Andy Stern, SEIU’s President at the time, was
reportedly in the White House at least 22 times in the first year of Obama’s
Presidency, while the main priority was passing Obamacare! [more...]
America's Biggest Problem: Energy Independence
We’ve been exporting our hard earned wealth to other
nations for years causing America’s financial supremacy to deteriorate. We
create so much that if we simply kept more of it in house, we could solve a lot
of problems. While every energy source claims to be the greatest, there is no
reason why all options can't be explored. It shouldn’t be green energy versus
oil and natural gas. It shouldn’t be nuclear versus coal. All options should be
on the table. Unfortunately, the media has decided that government backed wind,
solar, and other green energy sources are our only option, when we have a
tremendous wealth of resources (natural gas, oil, and coal) in the ground that
we could extract in a responsible manner. Our shale reserves alone could make
us competitive with Saudi Arabia. Think of all of the jobs that could create.
Not just oil jobs, but manufacturing, retail, tourism - you name it. [more...]
