As
of today, there are 69 days until the most consequential election in
American history. This is what they say about many past elections, but this
is really it. For if the Democrats seize power – control of the U.S. House, the
U.S. Senate and the Presidency – and doing it by hook or by crook (the
justifies the means, you know) America as we know it will be forever changed.
America envisioned and created by the Founding Fathers will disappear into the
shadows of history.
The
ungodly secular-humanists/Marxists slow march through America’s institutions
over the last 100 years or so will have reached a crescendo – fulfilling Mr.
Obama’s fundamental transformation of America. Never again will the demonic
Democratic Party relinquish its grip on political power and control of the
masses.
Envision
with me what a Socialist Democratic Party, takeover, a bloodless coup, a regime
change, would look like. This is one in a series of daily articles leading up
to the 2020 General Election scheduled for November 3, 2020.
Government Run Healthcare versus Free Market Healthcare
Here is
another area where there is a wide chasm between the Democratic Party and the
Republican Party approach to healthcare provision.
Some of the following initial comments below are
based on the narrative that accompanied a petition that Americans for Prosperity
(AFP) posted recently and which I signed.
Government Controlled Healthcare
We must act now to stop the growing push for
more government control of healthcare. This includes educating ourselves on the
healthcare issue and researching the candidates and political party which best
align with our personal beliefs, needs and interests. Then we must vote against
any and all Democrats for any position in the upcoming General Election.
You can call it public option,
Medicare-for-all, or something else, a government-run system means
one-size-fits-all healthcare. This government run healthcare would put
Washington, D.C. pencil-pushing bureaucrats and not the individual in charge or
his or her physician and other medical professional. Government run healthcare takes choice out of
the equation.
Free-Market Controlled Healthcare
The Republican Party favors a non-centralized,
free-market approach to healthcare. Like offering school choice for parents,
the Republicans think that the free market does a better job of providing fair,
efficient, quality healthcare services.
America needs to reimagine healthcare so that
the individual citizen gets to choose and control what he or she wants, can
afford, and the level quality level the individual deserves from the medical
profession they trust. If the healthcare industry, including the insurance
industry, were allowed more freedom to innovate and provide what the consumer
wants, then we would have an improved healthcare system.
Allowing healthcare insurance to be sold across
state lines would bring more competition into the marketplace, giving citizens
more choices and allows them to customize their insurance plans.
The bottom line is let's
put our trust in the physicians, nurses, researchers, and patients, not in
Washington to solve our healthcare challenges.
Big Pharma
Whenever there are limited number of
competitors in any business, those entities have money to spend in lobbying
efforts to garner advantage for their company or industry. A recent example is the attempt by government
agencies to limit or ban the use of an inexpensive hydroxychloroquine
medication for treatment of the Communist Chinese coronavirus. Why is this
medication targeted and more expensive medications pushed as authorized or
approved prescriptions? There may be some underlying forces within the medical,
government and industry working against sound economical approaches to treating
COVID-19. Perhaps Congress needs to
investigate this area. Something is not right,
and it hurts the overall healthcare available for American citizens.
I would not advocate government taking over the
pharmaceutical industry, but perhaps breaking up some of the mega corporations
if unscrupulous practices were discovered that would justify needed monopoly
busting actions.
In addition, maybe the government could
encourage smaller companies to bring back production of medications which have
been given to Communist China. This plannedemic has exposed America’s
vulnerability and dependence on China for some necessities. We need to move
toward independence.
More
Tomorrow we will continue to look at the
contrast between the Democrats and Republicans regarding the healthcare issue.
