This Health Care Thing Cannot Work Under Barry's Agenda. Just Ask The Original Liberals In Mass! 07/16/2009
by Dacia Nichols So yeah...what does this say on the national scale? Well, you'll have to have a look at where this budget deficit came from - the economy. Tax revenues in Massachusetts are down $2.7 billion...they received stimulus money to help and still have this deficit. They've already cut the $1 billion dollars marked for lottery and the $342 million for "additional assistance"...whatever that is (their definition is a little abstract to say the least), so maybe we can acknowledge that they're at least trying to appear more fiscally responsible. You go boys! Er...and girls! Instead of sitting here however and giving Dacia Nichol's analysis of the Massachusetts budget, we'll just summarize quickly how this carries over as a lesson in what our national government is attempting. [Apologies in advance for the redundancy...] The economy stinks. The CBO has attached a very high price tag on health care. The Dems have proposed to tax the rich more (again, shocker), and stick the rest to your employer and health care provider. Oh, and it's going to be an entitlement as well, and we all know how well entitlement programs work out... The Dems have also come up with a nifty energy tax in the name of environmental such and such...except it will do nothing but line the pockets of our friends in the oil industry along with their creative masterminds with their additional profiteering ventures. Anything else we can do to kill the economy and cost more jobs? Give 'em time...Stimulus 3.0 and Amnesty are right around the corner folks. Again...back to the point. See, Massachusetts is having a problem because the economy has done two things to tank their plans: 1) Decreased tax revenue through less investment and spending; and 2) Brought unemployment numbers that have added hundreds of thousands to the state health insurance rosters. So what happens when we make less money but spend more? We come out with liberal economic solutions. When Congressional Democrats crunch their numbers, we come out smiling and give them a thumbs up. When we look again, and more importantly, give them to a non-partisan reviewer, the Democrats come out with their math deficiency, or rather, optimistic view of the atomic economic bomb surrounding them that they seem to be blind to. Add in a time crunch by Mr. Prez and a threat to delay summer vacation by Her Highness's sidekick Harry, well...taxpayers, it's time to bend over and close your eyes. Seriously. Massachusetts is the one state that we (and the term "we" is used very lightly) had as validation of any universal coverage argument, and look at what they've done to their own baby. If health care is so important that we the people must pay for everyone regardless of our feelings on the matter, how is it that the Massachusetts liberals cannot even sacrifice enough to make it happen? Does anyone see foul play? In the land of Harvard, MIT, and Boston University...and the money that stinks up the place...is there not a big enough donation bin to help out those immigrants to which they want to grant full amnesty and have single party rule?
