It doesn&#8217;t care about   the Constitution, it doesn&#8217;t care about your inalienable rights.   If this health care bill becomes law, America, life as you have   known it, freedom as you have exercised it, and privacy as you   have enjoyed it will cease to be. <\/p>\n<p>   Last week the House of Representatives voted on a 2,000 page bill   to give the federal government the power to micromanage the   health care of every single American. The bill will raise your   taxes, steal your freedom, invade your privacy, and ration your   health care. Even the Republicans have introduced their version   of Obamacare Lite. It, too, if passed, will compel employers to   provide coverage, bribe the states to change their court rules,   and tell insurance companies whom to insure. <\/p>\n<p>   We do not have two political parties in this country, America. We   have one party; called the Big Government Party. The Republican   wing likes deficits, war, and assaults on civil liberties. The   Democratic wing likes wealth transfer, taxes, and assaults on   commercial liberties. Both parties like power; and neither is   interested in your freedoms.\n<\/p>\n<p>Think about it. Government is the negation of freedom. Freedom is   your power and ability to follow your own free will and your own   conscience. The government wants you to follow the will of some   faceless bureaucrat.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Be sure to read the whole thing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If government healthcare reform passes, then we can kiss our freedoms goodbye according to Judge Andrew Napolitano: Congress recognizes no limits on its power.
