With the passage of the legislation letting the federal government take control of the country's medical care system, a major turning point has been reached in the dismantling of America's values and institutions.
Even the massive transfer of crucial decisions from millions of doctors and patients to Washington bureaucrats and advisory panels — as momentous as that is — does not measure the full impact of this largely unread and certainly unscrutinized legislation.
If the current legislation does not entail the transmission of all our individual medical records to Washington, it will take only an administrative regulation or, at most, an executive order of the president to do that.
Our New Masters
With politicians now having access to our most confidential records and having the power of granting or withholding medical care needed to sustain ourselves or our loved ones, how many people will be bold enough to criticize our public servants, who will in fact have become our public masters?
Despite whatever "firewalls" or "lockboxes" there may be to shield our medical records from prying political eyes, nothing is as inevitable as leaks in Washington. Does anyone still remember the hundreds of confidential FBI files that were "accidentally" delivered to the White House during Bill Clinton's administration?

For your ping list

Rush said best today. This is a bill to destroy the middle class.
Maxists want a ruling class (which is wealthy) and lower poor class that they can control. Nothing in between. Its all about power.
The public servants have become the public masters. Precisely.
Kinda ruined the sarcasm though. :(
Actually, watching the House debate, yesterday, I thought of the irony, black politicians reattaching the leg irons to their black constituency. This health bill isn't reparations. It's reinstituting slavery.
Thanks for the ping, Kaslin.
The voters will have had no experience with the actual, concrete effect of the government takeover of medical care at the time of the 2010 congressional elections or the 2012 presidential election. All they will have will be conflicting rhetoric — and you can depend on the mainstream media to go along with the rhetoric of those who passed this medical care bill
Just Damn!
You are very welcome :)
Much better that, which isn't all that gory to begin with, than which ED medicine you are taking... and how fast, or how slowly, you are using them up. :)
GAME ON!
Sowell is worse than Racsist, he is a self hating racist who is a race traitor, race race race race race race race race race race race race race race race race race race

Sorry I had to stop that democrat record from skipping.
I have a question, if a African-American was a member of the Tea Party and called an African-American congress critter the n-word, and it was caugh on the raw tape, what are the chances the MSM would crop said video when playing it back to obscure who said it?
I want this country to go bankrupt and back to good ole days of the westerns! Bring on amnesty, more welfare, open borders, etc... Lets roll!
“why were the Dems willing to do this at the risk of being fired in November, or November 2012?”

Can just see ‘them’ using he “Oh, he is such a patriot, stared down the barrel of all those nasty teabaggers, took racial and sexual slurs, and said “the hell with them” and voted FOR YOUR GOOD”.
The lapdogs will sniff each others butt and go vote for the same dead weight, dead wood....
I love you Dr. Sowell, but this mentally battered woman needs a sanity break! Tonight I just feel like yodeling and screaming:

Luckily Husband added six more speakers to his sound system today. Perfect timing! :)
LOL!
I’ll say one thing about the yodeler, he gives it his all.
If you listen to much of it tonight it’s guaranteed you’ll forget about health care. :-)
Next up is a David Lee Roth fix. I loved Dave then almost as much as I love Dr. Sowell now. ;)
The way things are today, I might as well jump... :)

Some REO Speedwagon, a little Cheap Trick, and then bring myself back down to earth with a little Van Morrison. ;)
