Health Care Rip Offs

July 16th, 2009

Is your health insurer ripping you off?
As Congress debates government health programs, what can you do to get good health care for your family at an affordable cost right now? And what can we all do to stop a volcanic rise of health problems in this country?

Dr. Mercola’s article here shows the benefits of people taking charge. He shows the health bureaucracy’s failures in evaluating health care, and the problems of one-size-fits-all regulations. He suggests real ways to reduce the horrendous costs and bankruptcy of our current system.

Politicians promise health care at little cost or effort. But both the record and common sense show public health programs — subject to lobbying and payoffs to everyone from university medical departments and research facilities to doctors, bureaucrats, insurance companies, pharmaceutical and medical equipment industries, plus the vast tax bureaucracy to fund it all — astronomically increase health costs.

Countries which do keep public health care costs down often resort to rationing, elimination of less common health procedures, more reliance on home care, and limits on compensation, resulting in shortages and use of personnel other than accredited doctors.

Any public programs should allow the many who prefer natural therapies and independent choice to opt out of the system with no penalty. Current legislation would penalize individuals and companies making other health choices.

With no competition, people fearfully support government programs since there seems no other possibility. Only when alternatives are freely allowed can people discover what is the best health care.

Another way legislation keeps us poor.

US farmers are not allowed to grow hemp, so US industry imports it from Canada; you pay more.
Domestic hemp would cut manufacturing and price costs 10- 15%, but few in Congress have the courage to support farmers, business, and consumers by making it legal to grow here. Click Here to see an MSNBC video and article explaining this issue.

When citizens remind legislators they are supposed to be working for us, and demand an end to restrictive legislation and waste, then we can begin to recover prosperity and freedom in this country again.

New Hampshire declares it will defend citizens

February 3rd, 2009

The New Hampshire state legislature took an amazingly bold step today by introducing a

resolution to declare unconstitutional actions by the federal government completely void, and
warning that similar future acts will be viewed as a “breach of peace.” This act by New Hampshire is a clear warning to the federal government that it could face being stripped of power by the States.

The remarkable document outlines some basics long forgotten. For instance, it reminds Congress
“That the Constitution of the United States, delegated to Congress power to punish only specific
crimes: treason, counterfeiting securities and current coin of the United States, piracies, felonies committed on the high seas, offences against the law of nations, slavery, and no other crimes whatsoever;. . . . . therefore all acts of Congress which assume to create, define, or punish crimes, other than those so enumerated in the Constitution are altogether void, and of no force.”

Federal drug crime laws? Void. Income taxes? Void. Victimless “crimes? Void. Federal gun regulation? Void. The gazzillion other federal criminal laws that deal with anything other than the specific enumerated crimes? ALL VOID. Power would go back to the people; local communities and States would set laws without federal dictation.

Quoting directly from the Resolution: “That any Act by the Congress of the United States, Executive Order of the President of the United States of America or Judicial Order by the Judicatories of the United States of America which assumes a power not delegated to the
government of United States of America by the Constitution for the United States of America, and which serves to diminish the liberty of the any of the several States or their citizens shall constitute a nullification of the Constitution for the United States of America by the government
of the United States of America. Acts which would cause such a nullification include, but are not limited to:

I. Establishing martial law or a state of emergency within one of the
States comprising the United States of America without the consent of
the legislature of that State.

II. Requiring involuntary servitude, or governmental service other
than a draft during a declared war, or pursuant to, or as an
alternative to, incarceration after due process of law.

III. Requiring involuntary servitude or governmental service of
persons under the age of 18 other than pursuant to, or as an
alternative to, incarceration after due process of law.

IV. Surrendering any power delegated or not delegated to any
corporation or foreign government.

V. Any act regarding religion; further limitations on freedom of
political speech; or further limitations on freedom of the press.

VI. Further infringements on the right to keep and bear arms
including prohibitions of type or quantity of arms or ammunition; and

That should any such act of Congress become law or Executive Order or
Judicial Order be put into force, all powers previously delegated to
the United States of America by the Constitution for the United
States shall revert to the several States individually. ”

The simple fact is that the federal government has so far over-reached its Constitutional mandates that it has ruined our economy and may ruin our country if excesses continue.
