Sometimes I disagree with the lady but I always read her opinions as I respect her ability to analyze a situation and draw conclusions based on on the facts and her own value system. She almost always exposes enough of the facts to allow me to apply my own value system and draw my own conclusions. That last paragraph ending with "Worked last time." is in my opinion a fine prophesy of where we are heading politically.
National health programs, which started with the very conservative Otto von Bismark in the 1880s, may be a good idea if implemented in a slow and carefully designed method so as to insure that it does not destroy the national economy. The problem is Obama Care was implemented in neither a slow or carefully designed method. Like many medicines, too much, too soon with no consideration for side effects can be fatal to an economy.

Libertarians should take a seat at the Republican Party's table

My Comments:
An interesting and really logical idea in my opinion. The Libertarians that are already in the Republican party (IE the Paul family) have had an effect on the party's positions and an increased Libertarian presence would tend to increase that effect, and maybe even become a major wing in the Republican party. I for one would welcome this influence as I have tended to be a conservative who finds many things in common with Libertarian thought.

The Economics of ObamaCare

Orig Post Date: 2013.11.14

My Comments:
Of particular interest to me is the secgtion titled, The “Unintended” But Entirely Predictable Effects, which explains how these "unintended" effects were entirely predictable, and But the President Said I Could Keep My Plan, which documents that administration officials were forecasting this outcome. The Job Losses reiterates what anyone who has anyone with a modicum of understanding of economics expected to happen.
But the president continues to say these effects were not expected by him. Either he is a total idiot or a bald faced teller of untruths. Read the article and then you decide.

- Under Obamacare we will be able to keep our existing plans if we are happy with them. This article gives witness to the falsehood of this statement.
- Obamacare will cause medical costs and premiums to go down. Based on reports on new and existing policy costs this is another lie.
- Obamacare will be good for the economy. Based on the two previous statements one has to worry about the accuracy of this statement.

Interesting point and maybe even a valid one. The Supreme Court ruled ObamaCare was Constitutional since it is a tax. If ObamaCare is a tax then it was not legally passed since taxes and spending bills must originate in the House. Looks like another potential court challenge to me.

I can't think of a job that I had where I did not use these skills. If Americans are losing these skills that are absolutely necessary in our modern world we are in big trouble.

My Comments:
Some interesting comments on Obama Care and the Shutdown.
I do agree with the writer who points out that the Republicans have bent over backwards trying to negotiate a deal. It is the President, Senator Reid, and their supporters who are causing this Shutdown and I believe the majority of the American voters know this.
I also agree that the Congress, the Executive, and their staffs should have their medical benefits withdrawn, especially those who get benefits for life for less that 10 or more years of service.
