The cost of the healthcare plan for Americans became a little clearer this week. The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) gave us a ‘rough estimate’ – since they were giving us numbers from a bill that has not been written yet – that they say will SAVE us $81 billion dollars. At a price tag of nearly a TRILLION dollars over ten years – before we start into REAL costs and cost overruns – we’re going to save a little. The TRILLIONS of tax dollars healthcare will eventually cost us is insignificant compared to the REAL cost of healthcare –the loss of our freedom and liberty.
Many have warned of the coming tyranny in the name of healthcare, but this week the first indications of what it will become were clearly on display. Secretary of Health and Human Services Kathleen Sebelius this week said all Americans MUST get an H1N1 Flu shot. It may have been a slip of the tongue, but the reaction from Rush Limbaugh was an immediate ‘screw you’ followed by a refusal to get the shot. The firestorm that arose following that proclamation was predictably from the media attacking Limbaugh for leading his listeners into getting sick with the flu to follow their leader.
The story that was missed by our clueless media was the beginning of the march to tyranny in the name of healthcare costs. For now getting an H1N1 Flu shot is a suggestion from the HHS Secretary. The scary part was in the reaction from the government and the press attacking an American exercising his right to free choice – or at least what used to be free choice. Once the healthcare bill is in place suddenly the tables will shift. Everything related to health will be viewed through the prism of costs. No matter what the edict handed down by the HHS Secretary or the Health Czar the American people will be REQUIRED to march to the health centers, stand in lines and get their shots.
Will Americans have a choice to get the H1N1 Flu shot? The short answer is no. The logic thrown at America will be that you MUST get the shots to keep the number of people catching the flu to a minimum reducing the number of people needing hospitalization and doctors’ attention. After all, who wants to cost the healthcare system millions of dollars that could be avoided by taking a simple preventative shot? The argument against the safety of the vaccine, the need for the vaccine or the right of the government to dictate the action of American citizens will be over. Americans will be FORCED to get the vaccine. And every other vaccine that comes along the government decides it wants to inflict on our people in the name of saving healthcare costs. You will have an ID card that will be swiped into the master system – remember those computerizations of your medical records to save your life in an emergency? Those computerized records can and will be used to insure you do what you are told. Failure to comply will be simple. You’ll be arrested like you would be for failure to comply with any other regulation. Fines, suspension of your healthcare – if not the total revocation – and jail time are the logical penalties for failure to follow the edicts.
Slowly but surely your freedom will be taken from you. It will start with logical cost initiatives they will take the time to sell to the public and end up with the government dictating that you get shots, procedures or ‘take the pill’ – no sales pitch – and you will be expected to show up and get it done.The sentiment of Rush Limbaugh to stand up to the dictatorial powers of the government and scream ‘screw you’ at the top of his lungs is the correct reflex – and now is the time to do it before it’s too late. All Americans who believe in their liberty and freedom need to start screaming loud and clear before time runs out.
