"I do not call myself subject to much at all..."
-- from the movie Last of the Mohicans
"Responsibility, not to a superior, but to one's conscience, the awareness of a duty not exacted by compulsion, the necessity to decide which of the things one values are to be sacrificed to others, and bear the consequences of one's own decision, are the very essence of any morals which deserve the name. "
~ Friedrich A. Hayek
A LETTER TO THE GOVERNMENT
To: President Obama and all 535
voting members of the Legislature, and 100 Senators:
- The U.S. Post Service was established in 1775. You have had 234 years to get it right and it is broke.
- Social Security was established in 1935. You have had 74 years to get it right and it is broke.
- Fannie Mae was established in 1938. You have had 71 years to get it right and it is broke.
- The War on Poverty started in 1964. You have had 45 years to get it right; $1 trillion of our money is spent each year, and we still have plenty of poverty.
- Medicare and Medicaid were established in 1965. You have had 44 years to get it right and they are broke.
- Freddie Mac was established in 1970. You have had 39 years to get it right and it is broke.
- The Department of Energy was created in 1977 to lessen our dependence on foreign oil. It has ballooned to 16,000 employees with a budget of $24 billion a year and we import more oil than ever before. You had 32 years to get it right and it is an abysmal failure.
You have failed in every "government service" you have shoved down our throats while overspending our tax dollars.
AND YOU WANT US TO BELIEVE YOU CAN BE TRUSTED WITH A GOVERNMENT-RUN HEALTH CARE SYSTEM?
