Thoughts on the "healthcare reform"

Over the months I have been paying close attention to how Washington is handling the "healthcare reform" issue and I must say I am deeply disturbed and more than a little frightened.

There are several items that are of particularly great concern to me.

The first of which is the fact that they somehow think that our youth and the "rich" will magically pay for all of it. Who do they think they are kidding? I can't speak for the rest of the population in this country who give a hoot, but I don't believe it for a minute.
The healthcare reform is going to be paid for by our young and healthy youth right? Well as far as I understand it most healthy young people have at best part time jobs usually with few benefits. So if they force these young people to buy insurance
( most likely at higher rates) to help pay for this debacle and these young adults in turn require subsidies (paid for by my higher premiums and most every one's higher taxes) how then will anything have gotten better?
Jobs will be lost by employers trying to meet the new federal bureaucratic standards, quality of care will suffer, as they do in every country with such kinds of medical care, and doctors will flee or retire in droves-especially primary care doctors.
The other thing is if they continue to tax the "rich" as they are and increase that taxation, there wont be enough "rich" people left to bear enough of the burden. As it stands the segment of the population that even pay federal taxes is shrinking at an alarming rate. This deterioration will only increase, thereby neccesating the lowering of the levels at which they heavily tax a group. Also have you every heard of a poor person starting a business or highering multiple groups of people? Not last time I checked, esp in today's climate of anti-private business, over-taxation, over-regulation, and out of control political correctness. The environmental nuts aren't helping either.

The second point of concern is even deeper than this. The greed and corruption of our politicians is just disgusting. They don't listen to the people who they are supposed to be representing. Instead they are listening radical organizations such as Acorn and SEIU, the Unions, and the corrupt special interest groups. We have lost our voice and our way.
Its disheartening when thousands of people say hey hold on a minute we don't like the direction you are going with this and they push ahead anyway as if to say we are too stupid to know whats really good for us. Who died and made them God?

I wonder if we as a nation will wake up in time to turn things around and save this nation or if it isn't too late and this is just God's will. Time will only tell.
