Question by shelby hicks: what will obama do for health care and national security?
i am in high school and have to do research on what obama do for health care and national security. and help? i have to turn it all in by tommorow. please help. and if you know anything on what mccain will do on health care and national security. please let me know.

Best answer:

Answer by Carl J
See www.physicians-surgeons-mccain.com and
www.Nurses4McCain.com

Basically in a nutshell, Obama will make it all socialized, boost the cost to the taxpayers and reduce the competency and efficiency. Patients will have long waits for routine procedures like getting a gall bladder out, like in Canada and Europe. You won’t be able to choose your doctors or see a specialist if you want. You’ll have to do more paperwork for government permissions to access specialty, expensive or unusual healthcare.

Your best bet is don’t smoke or do drugs, exercise regularly and don’t do screen activities to the point of getting overweight. If something hurts, stop doing it, stock up on over the counter remedies, and

oh yeah, stay in school and get an education before you have kids
to take care of.

[NDAA] A Message to the American People [ANONYMOUS]

Feb 15th, 12 / 23 Comments

Dear brothers and sisters. Now is the time to open your eyes! In a stunning move that has civil libertarians stuttering with disbelief, the US Senate has just passed a bill that effectively ends the Bill of Rights in America. The National Defense Authorization Act is being called the most traitorous act ever witnessed in the Senate, and the language of the bill is cleverly designed to make you think it doesn’t apply to Americans, but toward the end of the bill, it essentially says it can apply to Americans “if we want it to. Bill Summary & Status, 112th Congress (2011 — 2012) | S.1867 | Latest Title: National Defense Authorization Act for. This bill, passed late last night in a 93-7 vote, declares the entire USA to be a “battleground” upon which US military forces can operate with impunity, overriding Posse Comitatus and granting the military the unchecked power to arrest, detain, interrogate and even assassinate US citizens with impunity. Even WIRED magazine was outraged at this bill, reporting: Senate Wants the Military to Lock You Up Without Trial …the detention mandate to use indefinite military detention in terrorism cases isn’t limited to foreigners. It’s confusing, because two different sections of the bill seem to contradict each other, but in the judgment of the University of Texas’ Robert Chesney — a nonpartisan authority on military detention — “US citizens are included in the grant of detention authority.” The passage of this law is nothing less than an …

Robert Reich Debunks 6 Big GOP Lies About The Economy

Feb 7th, 12 / 25 Comments

Is Social Security a Ponzi scheme as Republican Presidential candidate Rick Perry claims? Noted author and former US Labor Secretary Robert Reich debunks that claim and five other lies the right-wing tells about taxes, government and the economy. The lies Reich debunks: 1) Tax cuts to the rich and corporations trickle down to the rest of us. (No it doesn’t and it never has.) 2) If you shrink government you create jobs. (No, you get rid of jobs that way.) 3) High taxes on the rich hurts the economy. (No, the economy grew when the US did this under Eisenhower.) 4) Debt is to be avoided and it is mostly caused by Medicare. (No, if debt is properly used to grow the economy, it becomes a smaller part of the budget because of increased revenue and Medicare has the lowest overhead of any health insurance plan out there.) 5) Social Security is a Ponzi scheme (No, its solid for 26 years. Social Security is solid beyond that if the rich pay the same percentage in social security taxes as the rest of us do.) 6) We need to tax the poor. (This is what Republicans have been proposing when they say any “tax reform” needs to involve all Americans because poor people pay no income tax. The poor have no money and taxing them will not solve our budget problems.) Reich was speaking at the “Summit For A Fair Economy” in Minneapolis, Minnesota on September 10, 2011.
