Freedom: The Price of Health Care
An atmosphere of resentment and discontent, lingers over Washington D.C. in the wake of a largely unpopular bill being signed into law. The alleged purpose of this bill from a -historical viewpoint- is to even further narrow the gap, of inequality by providing even the poorest of our nation's population with "affordable" health care.
However, I believe this bill to be, an act of divisive persuasion; using the poverty of a portion of our population as political leverage, to perpetuate a policy of "social justice," giving the federal government a longer reach into the private lives of it's citizens, and further centralizing power, in this nation.
Poverty is a very real problem in our society; however, the methods employed to combat this issue are fundamentally flawed, and purposely so.
The role of government has been vastly expanded, from it's intended purpose in our founding documents; much of this expansion has been made possible under the stated purpose of "social justice," using this as a vehicle our government has fed it's ever-growing appetite for power and control, this latest act has no distinction, "they have just become bolder in their attempts."
It is for this reason, the federal government has no desire to resolve this nation's immigration issues; it only further expands government's role, by a means of dependency. The greater the need of the impoverished; the greater the justification to take American's wealth for redistribution; thereby giving itself a pivotal role in and out of the marketplace.
"Equality" is what's said to be our government's intent; however, their policies have created an environment of social dependency, and economic slavery. This is not an accident; this is the purposeful desire of many in power; to lift the status of their position by manufacturing a need for government assistance.
However, oppression under the guise of charity is the worst kind of slavery, because you rob a person of their dignity, honor, and will to succeed; keeping them at the mercy of the state, and making them a burden to society; thereby, adversely effecting the "common good." The very opposite of the stated goal."

I often wonder if this redistribution of wealth, or so called "social justice", is more insidious than we think. Our government is encouraging banks to work with subprime borrowers, but jumbo loans with well qualified borrowers are being stolen from. Maybe I am just a little paranoid because of my personal situation with our lender, but one of my favorite quotes from a man much wiser than I is:
“The spirit of resistance to government is so valuable on certain occasions, that I wish it to be always kept alive. It will often be exercised when wrong, but better so than not to be exercised at all. I like a little rebellion now and then.”~Thomas Jefferson
