Of Course Socialized Medicine is Coming

All you have to do is look at the table below and it is not too big a stretch to lose hope that our Rally's are an exercise in futility if the only reason we are together is to stop Health Care Reform. Depression Government power grab and the Great Society occurred because there was no balance in our federal system. The last time the more progressive party has had total power they created what has become trillions in unfunded mandates that is now on the path to collapse. Is there little doubt with complete control of the federal government, Health Care Reform (Socialized Medicine) is coming?

Now, don't get a head of me and think I am saying Republicans should be in power more than 4 years in the last 75. It is the balance that is important. We simply were out of balance 38 years out of the last 75 which allowed spending programs and social engineering to flourish.

We need to make this Tea Party a Revolution in order to break the monopoly of the megalomaniacs and progressives in our government. Our plan needs to focus on 4 goals

1) We need to influence our local schools and universities and make sure a balanced approach on History, Economics, and the Social Sciences is taught.

2) We need to inspire each other to develop the new media and break the strangle hold of the mainstream media that slants the news.

3) We need to find libertarians and conservatives to get involved in government, to choke the stranglehold progressives have (regardless of party).

4) Finally, we need to pass NEW CONSTITUTIONAL LIMITS on our federal government. Spending cap, term limits and banning institutional lobbying will bring about a new era of personal responsiblity and accountability in America.

Regardless what happens on health care or any other bill in the next two years, we need to be laser focused on the change that long term eliminates even the debate on these programs and institutions the government has built.
