Screw that. I was born in a nation that was founded upon the idea that all men are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights. One of these rights is to be able to enjoy the fruits of my own labor. Further, the Constitution was written to only allow the Federal Government certain, specified powers - among these is not the power to confiscate money from my paycheck to redistribute to others.

I live in that better country. The socialists have invaded and are destroying our freedom in this country. It is the socialists that need to move.

I judge an elected official not by their party affiliation, but by what they are doing to protect and restore my God-given freedoms. The Republicans failed miserably last night - well, except for a handful. I'm pleased to say that Rep. Jeff Flake, R-AZ voted against this socialist monstrosity. I applaud his brave stand as he voted against it, not because he wanted more socialism like the Democrats do, but because he recognized just how socialist this bill, this new massive entitlement, is.
