"If the United States is supposed to uphold "Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness" how can a sick or dying person without health care have these rights."
~Motivated In Ohio
"Any health care funding plan that is just, equitable, civilized and humane must - must - redistribute wealth from the richer among us to the poorer and the less fortunate. Excellent healthcare is by definition re-distributional."

Dear Congress Representatives
Pink originally sung this song when Bush was in office. But with everything that is going on right now in DC I think that this song is very fitting to the situation.
"How do you sleep while the rest of us cry?
How do you dream when a mother has no chance to say goodbye?
How do you walk with your head held high?
Can you even look me in the eye?
"Let me tell you 'bout hard work
Minimum wage with a baby on the way
Let me tell you 'bout hard work
Rebuilding your house after the bombs took them away
Let me tell you 'bout hard work
Building a bed out of a cardboard box
Let me tell you 'bout hard work
Hard work
Hard work
You don't know nothing 'bout hard work
Hard work
Hard work"

My Thoughts on the GOP, TP & 'Big Government'
There's a lot of GOPs and TPs out there who think that our government is way too big and think it should be cut. Because they apparently think that:
"Do not believe in anything simply because it is spoken and rumored by many. Do not believe in anything simply because it is found written in your religious books. Do not believe in anything merely on the authority of your teachers and elders. Do not believe in traditions because they have been handed down for many generations. But after observation and analysis, when you find that anything agrees with reason and is conducive to the good and benefit of one and all, then accept it and live up to it."

- Helping the poor, the needy and the less fortunate is something the government shouldn't do.
- Standing up to the health insurance companies is wrong.
- Raising taxes on the rich is a bad idea.
- Holding the debt ceiling hostage is ok and raising it is a bad idea.
- Medicare and Social Security are the devil.
- Basically anything that helps people who really need it or 'hurts' the rich is a bad idea.
- Ayn Rand is amazing even though everything she believes in is against what Jesus taught and her hero was a serial killer.
- It's ok to tell a woman what rights she has with her body and what rights she doesn't have.
- Corporate welfare is ok.
- It's ok to tell a religious group that their laws are wrong/dangerous and they can't meet in groups of more than 3 people of the same religion.
- It's ok to abolish a local government.
- It's ok to take workers rights away.
- It's ok to decide who gets married and who doesn't.
- It's ok to lie about why we're going to war.
