All Flu's are not created equal

In the news this week, over four thousand Americans had died of the H1N1 flu virus. Over twenty two million have been infected, there is a problem with that number but we will get to that later. The government still does not know when enough vaccine will be available, at this rate you will be vaccinated by default before you can actually get the vaccine.
Recently at Tendoy Elementary we have seen an indication of the epidemic mismanagement that infects the H1N1 panic. People stood in line for hours for the chance of getting a shot. In other places in the screening criteria changed during the day as it became apparent to health care officials, not professionals, officials, that they simply did not have enough vaccine.
Everyone needs to get vaccinated, isn’t that what we were told earlier this year? Now there are guidelines on which people are a higher priority to receive the vaccine. Everyone needs the vaccine, and you will get it when and if there is enough. You may not get the vaccine your doctor recommends either; a health care official may decide that for you.
These decisions are made again by health care officials, government bureaucrats, not your doctor. For those of you who do not recognize this for what it is, this is health care rationing. Remember we were told there would be no rationing under a government run health care system.
Guess who is running the H1N1 flu vaccination program.
You cannot get the vaccine but the terrorist at Guantanamo can, well they would have received the vaccine until the public found out and threw a fit.
Why are there so many cases of H1N1? Well health care professionals (doctors) have been instructed by health care officials (bureaucrats) to report all cases of the flu as H1N1 and not to run any tests to see which type of flu they are really dealing with. To paraphrase Napoleon “All flu’s are equal, but some flu’s are more equal than others”.
So reality has nothing to do with this, why waste a good crisis right?
Do you still think the government can run a health care system? They cannot even manage something as simple as distribution of a single vaccine.
Fancy Nancy and her compatriots have thrust a two thousand plus page health care bill down the throats of the American public. I guess she thought if 1000 pages upset us we would be ecstatic about a bill twice as big and incomprehensible.
I get my health insurance through the university, for my family the total cost for health care is $5364.36 a year, I already pay $779.76 a year for other peoples medical insurance (Medicare).
The monstrosity of a law passed last week is estimated to cost as much as 1.2 trillion dollars to cover 36 million people. That is $277.78 per month per individual. For a family of four that cost comes to $13333.30 a year, but the government can run health care cheaper than the private sector.
When asked what part of the constitution supported a National health care system, Senator Ben Nelson (D,NE) and Senator Jack Reed (D,RI) and the White house press secretary all claimed that they were “not constitutional scholars” and “did not know the case law”. I guess they also failed high school civics.
If you decide to pay cash for your health care, in other words be responsible, you are a felon and subject to 5 years in prison and up to $250,000.00 in fines (section 7201). When questioned (3 times) about this Fancy Nancy could not give the reporter an answer that had anything to do with incarceration of American citizens.
For the first time in the history of our country, as a condition of freedom, you will be forced to purchase something from the government. I have news for all of the above individuals, THIS IS UNCONSTITUTIONAL!
Senators are insisting that any health care bill pay for abortion. Forcing taxpayers to contribute to a system which pays for procedures they object to on religious grounds is a violation of the First Amendment. Which side will the courts come down on? Will it be the fundamental right? Or the legislated right?
Our government which cannot handle something as simple as distribution of a vaccine is taking over health care. November 11 was Veterans Day, if you want to honor the Veterans who served to guarantee your freedom get involved in the process and put a stop to this insanity.
