Redistribution of Health Care

Last month, Ex-President Clinton told Congress that Democrats lost so many seats in Congress in 1994 because they did not pass health care reform. This is absurdly incorrect. Democrats lost so many seats, because they tried so hard to pass bad health care reform that the American people did not want. If they had actually passed the bill, they would have lost more congressional seats.

More Americans now oppose proposed health care reform than opposed reform fifteen years ago. Why are Democrats now so determined to ignore the will of the people and pass this legislation? Democrats must know that voting for this unwanted legislation is the same as signing their letters of resignation. Politicians usually have a strong sense of self-preservation. Are they willing to sacrifice their careers for party agenda or do they think constituents won’t remember their bad actions? People will remember for they will have to face the ramifications of this bad bill almost every day. The more they deal with it; the angrier they will become.

Congress needs to scrap these bad bills. All these bills do is put the federal government more in control of our lives and increase the size and scope of government. The people want health care reform that will actually improve the quality of health care. These bills are simply a redistribution of health care. A few more people are covered, but they each receive less care.
