Dear Walter Willliams. Good Article. Politicians, Democrats and Republicans have proven that they lie, steal and cheat! This reckless behavior has ankrupted America! ''Heartbeat of America' - textile and furniture manufacturing businesses
making and selling their goods; therefore, being able to buy homes, cars,
and food for their families. Politicians took this away from hard-working
Taxpaying Americans with their 'Free Trade', stating America would become a
service country. Really, the only servicing being done now is unemployment,
social and welfare offices! Are Taxpayers getting any benefits from this
type governing?
"We need affordable, accessible healthcare for all!" and "Do something for
people who are uninsured" make Taxpayers wonder why these people, writing
these articles, don't get together and charge everyone $100.00 to attend a
meeting and do something constructive; that is, you could take out a good
health insurance plan and look after yourselves, as this is the only way it's
going to happen, because America is bankrupt or haven't you noticed!

Politicians "Do as we say, not as we do" is quite evident in townhall
meetings! They're not interested in me, you nor our comments!

I, personally, was "forced" to take Medicare and their drug plan' (real
jokes). I was happy with my private insurance plan and the deductible. Prior
to politicians' mess, doctor visits were less. The politicians stated "I had
to do it their way or else!" Needless to say, I wasn't a happy camper!
Medicare, Medicaid, Healthcare disaster, and anything else the politicians
can drum up to take your money is very scary! 'Explanation of Benefit' a
recent statement I received regarding this government rip off! My Doctor
billed for $233.00, Medicare paid $76.20, private carrier paid $19.05! Can
you see the problem here? Office visits, paid for by me, the patient, at
$50.00, the doctors would be getting a lot more money, less papework, and
government wouldn't have access to all your records, which, incidentally,
can be used against you - in case you didn't know!

In plain English, Taxpayers would be better off with their own insurance and
their own money! If I were a doctor, I'd be sitting on the front steps of
all politicians until they went back to 'pay as you go', thus saving
trillions of dollars! Better yet, Taxpayers should set up, with a good,
honest insurance company, and manage a Insurance Trust for doctors and
hospitals, interest bearing Fund (at a bank that didn't take TARP money),
have all Americans pay $100.00 each month for each person, and this way,
everyone can be insured, pay their 'fair share', and cut out the stealing by
the 'blood-sucking ticks'. In the old days, when integrity, honesty and
respest stood for something people paid their own way, paid their own
doctors and hospitals, and America wasn't bankrupt then! I wonder why?

"Millions face shrinking Social Security Payments" todays' headlines!
Politicians robbed the system to pay for all social and welfare programs,
which, of course, these people weren't entitled.

Folks, can't you see that Taxpayers are paying for all the extra offices,
the trips, the lunches, the fine healthcare, etc. for politicians, while we're
doing without?

America is now an enslaved nation with trillions of dollars in debt and all
because of deceit and greed. I'm quoting John Adams - "There are two ways to
conquer and enslave a nation. One is by the sword, the other is by debt."
Surely, you remember history and the Dictator that said "We'll destroy
America and never lift a finger!" If this doesn't wake you up, nothing will!

At no time have Taxpayers heard the words "We, the politicians, in order to
pay off trillions we borrowed without Taxpayers consent, are going to reduce
our benefits, salaries and retirements to $12,000.00 yearly!"
