Democrats want us to believe they want to reform health care. If they are sincere, they would institute real reform and lower costs through medical product and liability (tort) reform, interstate insurance competition, catastrophic health insurance options, health savings accounts and individual tax credits.

Don’t be fooled. ObamaCare is a Trojan horse designed as part of a much larger and more insidious scheme intended to amass government power through the nationalization of health care, education, environment, banking and energy. It’s part of a grander agenda for a single-party system, thus enabling them to confiscate and consolidate money, power and control from the American people. Then they, and their elitist friends, will take away our precious freedom and manipulate us like puppets.

There is still hope because in their quest for absolute power, the left is relying heavily on an unwary populace to execute their shell game. This could become their Achilles’ heel. They may have just awakened a sleeping giant who isn’t falling prey to their treachery this time.

If they are wise, they will remember “1994” — for “those who fail to remember their history are doomed to repeat it!”
