Well...They Did It, What Next?

I watched the healthcare bill vote with a sinking feeling in my stomach. Here you have the government taking over ostensibly a large portion of our economy. I watched Bart Stupak talk about Mr. Obama’s agreement to sign an executive order preventing federal funds from being used for abortion. That was like saying, sign this check and I will change it before I cash it. The idea that Stupak believes the most pro-abortion president in recent history will somehow help him is laughable…stay tuned Bart.
What next? Well the democrats understand that the townsfolk are angry and now they will try to get immigration reform before they are thrown out in November. Immigration reform will give them more votes hopefully to counter anger in November. What they don’t realize is that people did not want this bill, as it is written. The idea that a bill that will impact such a large segment of society was passed without a single republican vote reeks to high heaven. Anyone who understands the workings of a free market economy knows that this bill is an accident looking for a place to happen…to us.
