The Anti Public Option Pledge: No Health Care For Me!

Like my fellow American patriots, I refuse to sit by while the Nazi Marxist President sends storm troops of Dr Mengeles to pull the plug on millions of grannies. Just keep out of our persona lives. My health care is my business and it's between me myself and I(nsurance companies.) Up until yesterday, I was telling the government to stay out of my granny's Medicare, which works just fine, thank you very much. But I recently learned that Medicare is actually government provided, public-option program (they're a sly, wily and sneaky bunch of Jews, they are.) And, because I'm no hypocrite, I'm putting my money where my mouth is and un-enrolling Granny from Medicare. If Medicare spreads to younger people, I will reject all benefits. My fellow Americans who say no to government takeover of our lives and organs, won't you please join me in my boycott of government funded health insurance? Sign the NO PUBLIC OPTION pledge!

 

For those of us on Medicare or with a family member on Medicare:

I ______
oppose the Nazi-Communist infiltration of my personal life via Medicare, and thus reject all Medicare benefits for myself and my family.

For those of us on state-run health programs:
I ________
oppose the Nazi-Communist government infiltration of our personal lives via Medicaid and such (low-income programs often going by innocent-sounding names like Healthy Citizen, Health Plus, Family Health, etc) and thus reject benefits from such programs for myself and my family.

For those of us on VA healthcare or with loved ones on VA healthcare:
I ___________
oppose the Nazi-Communist government infiltration of our personal lives via VA healthcare, and thus reject VA benefits for myself and/or my family members.

 

For Congressmen and Senators opposed to the public option:
I ____________
oppose the Nazi-Communist government infiltration of our personal lives, and thus reject the health insurance provided to me by the U.S. government .

LET'S NOT STOP WITH ILLNESS-RIGHTS

It is not enough to say no to the government's control of our illness-related rights. We must stop government takeovers wherever they exist, from sea to sea, from shore to shore. If not us, then who? If not now, then when?

Look for our next series of pledges.

For now, consider signing this one, which applies to all of us.

 

I ____________
oppose the Nazi-Communist government infiltration into my transit freedoms and thus
refuse to drive on county, state, or inter-state highways.

The Rethug Health Plan according to Grayson:

1- don't get sick
2- If you do, die quickly

This is right on the money, literally and figuratively speaking. Afterall, we need to improve business and profits for the undertakers, coffin manufacturers and cemeteries. And if you do get sick, it means the doctors, hospitals, hospices, etc can more quickly transfer your wealth from you to them and move on to the next patient and do the same. No long drawn out process to remove your money from you. It's provide a much more rapid process for maximizing profits for them. And a win-win for capitalism in a free-for-all marketplace where maximizing profits is the only thing that matters. Now add to this , Wall Street and banks creating death derivatives they can package and sell as investments based on whether you get sick and how quickly you will die. As a capitalist, you gotta love it.

On today's (10-02-2009) Chris Matthews show on MSNBC, Chris had a comment on this. He said Congressman Grayson's statement represented the Democrats taking the offense on health care. "Why not state what is wrong with the present system," Chris Matthews asked, instead of simply trying to defend the sausage of health care plans coming out of congress? Liberals should remember this. Take the offense. Stop playing defense. Just like Alan Grayson.

So if they insist on the right of not being insured, and then they get sick and land in the emergency room, I'll end up paying more for it anyways by having the costs transferred on to my next visit.

Not only are the right-wingers trying to get a free ride off of me, they're insisting that I pay for it in the most inefficient manner possible.

I love the article!

I have just been thinking about the fact that the conservative party wants to ban abortion for any reason and yet they don't concern themselves about health care for the expectant mothers and the unborn fetus, not to mention care for these children after they are born.

Unfortunately, most of the people who find themselves in this situation are usually very poor, unemployed and without the means to provide health care for themselves and the child.

The conservatives appear to be very hyprocritical.

You forgot "I ____________ oppose the Nazi-Communist government infiltration into my defense freedoms and thus refuse to support the troops" and "I ____________ oppose the Nazi-Communist government infiltration into my public safety freedoms and thus refuse all police and fire department assistance."

Classic! It would be interesting to see the freakazoids live up to their own words.

There is no valid argument to come back with.
Wonder how many no-government-intrusion congressmen and other fed employees would have to go without insurance if they, indeed, stopped being hypocrites, renounced their government plan and tried to buy on the public market. Wonder how many have pre-existing conditions or fall outside the actuarial chart norms ...
