Ryancare lite

Today congress will try to vote on repealing Obamacare, and replacing it with Ryancare. A vast majority of Americans are concerned about the outcome of a vote on the ACA and repealing it.

For the sake of the constitution and America, the ACA needs to repealed without a replacement that keeps the government in charge of our healthcare. To do anything else would be to go back on campaign promises that were made to the American people, mainly to repeal Obamacare!!!

Anytime government tries to control anything that a sovereign individual should be taking care of themselves, it never ends well. In order for the government to handle stuff, freedom and liberty, of necessity, needs to be curtailed!!! This is the nature of government that is socialistic, freedom and liberty die, so safety and security imposed by the government can take it’s place.

There are no guarantees in life except from God. So knowing this how can anyone believe that government can guarantee anything will work if we just give them control?

The left and SCOTUS

It is amazing how the left want’s an activist judge on the bench at SCOTUS, but will not come right out and say it. The left want’s to control all aspects of government including SCOTUS, never mind that SCOTUS is an independent third branch of our federal government.

The confirmation hearings for judge Neil Gorsuch have been taking place this week and as predictable as the sun coming up in the east, there is a vast political divide in the senate judiciary committee. And just as predictable are the lefts questions that pander to their ill informed base.

I know this is a lifetime appointment (My hope is the convention of states can put term limits on SCOTUS) and great care should be taken, however to use your questions to scare your base into believing a lie about the constitution speaks volumes to a persons character, and those who keep voting them into office!!!

Unintended consequences

Everyday all across America folks make choices in their lives that affect how they live and maybe how someone else lives their lives. Some folks try to see every aspect of a situation, including the unseen and unintended consequences. We can’t know everything before we make a decision, but we try to educate ourselves to minimize any unintended consequences.

When we ignore the unintended consequences or the unseen we are bound to get in trouble to the point that someone has to bail us out. This is definitely true when it comes to going to college and borrowing money to do so. Having to barrow more money than you can pay back for an education is the very definition of a bad financial investment!!!

The Trump administration is showing a glimmer of hope when it comes to draining the swamp that is D.C. President Trump said during his campaign he would drain the swamp in D.C. And things are starting to happen.

The administration’s budget is cutting agencies completely and closing them down. Other agencies are seeing their budgets cut, and the left is going crazy!!! But something is happening with the budget cuts that the left doesn’t know how to handle, private citizens are stepping up and standing in the gaps of the budget cuts, go figure!!!

The left believes that only government can do what private charities and citizens used to do before the progressive left took over D.C. When Americans see a need that they are passionate about, they will give to make sure that need is met!!! This is something the left in this country doesn’t put a lot of stock in, mainly the American people helping others in their time of need.

What rights do illegal immigrants and refugees have in America?

Again we need to deal with the issue of rights and who has them. Everyone on God’s green have rights because God gave them to them. But does that mean they can exercise them anywhere they want without responsibility or consequences?

This is the question that needs to be answered when it comes to immigrants entering any country. Any country that has a working government has laws, or should have laws, governing immigration and citizens rights or the exercise of those rights. Just because you have rights, doesn’t mean that governments will recognize those rights, or let you exercise those rights. Only governments set up by the people (little d democracies), that are self governed by the people, will choose for themselves the freedom and liberty to exercise those rights.

Just because you want to go to another country doesn’t mean that country has to recognize your needs, wants or desires. Most countries will help out for humanitarian reasons, but most countries also knows the difference between a humanitarian need and an invasion.
