Speak Out: Who's Paying?

• If We the People were honest about it, we would admit that the government is broke.

  $17 trillion in debt, and hundreds of trillions in unfunded mandates to be paid in the future, would be insolvency in my book, anyway.

  So...who is paying? This money will come from NOWHERE, created by the cabal of central bankers (the Fed) who don't even have to print worthless paper fiat currency anymore, they just create it virtually. This steals (yep, I said STEALS, because it's criminal!) purchasing power from every person down the line who depends on that fiat currency, either for basic needs or for their rainy-day fund (the little-used word, "savings").

  The insurance industry saw golden dollar signs when they thought the public would be forced to buy their product. Isn't that great? A tyrannical overlord forces people to buy your product. You get maybe a new car or two and a fun vacation when the scheme is just starting. But you get paid in money that is progressively inflated in value...that is, worth less and less. Mr. Insurance Man will wake up one day when he can't afford bread with his wheelbarrow of money (a reference to Weimar Germany.) His kids will start having trouble paying the rent, buying shoes for their feet, affording meat. One by one, the private insurers will fold, and there will only be the "government exchange" and it will be like the old USSR...shortages, rationing, lines, and mediocrity.

  Yes, yes, I know...Missouri isn't supposed to have a state exchange yet...but the feds have already promised $$$ to at least two entities who will be "navigators" for the exchanges, and CVS pharmacies are getting built here and there to house them.

  And if they choose to pay the fine and wait to buy insurance when a catastrophe happens, where do you suppose these fine citizens will get their primary care doctors in the meantime? Has anybody given any thought to turning the emergency rooms back into that any quit taking non paying customers for free? Would be inhumane.... right?

  This piece of crap better known as Obamacare does not have the problems all solved by aa long shot.

• We are just transferring those subsidies to insurance, which can be used to provide lower cost health care, rather than expensive healthcare options.

  This is going to result in lower healthcare costs? That's nothing more than a pipedream.
