The on-again, off-again repeal, replacement, re-whatever of the socialist healthcare tax system, which was not supposed to be a tax and was supposed to be voluntary, is now again stalled in the US Senate. That a supposed “conservative” majority of the Senate cannot get this unaffordable and detrimental healthcare system repealed is a testimony to the hypocrisy and lies among Republican Party senators. The Grand Old Party has a majority in the Senate, yet can’t muster enough votes to get rid of socialist healthcare, which costs more, provides less, and is a detriment to the free market system. Why? Bottom line: it’s because too many Republican Senators are also socialists.
Think about it. If conservative Senators are having a hard time swallowing the so-called “repeal and replace” of socialist healthcare, its because it doesn’t repeal or replace the current horrible system-a system that was jammed down America’s throat by a majority Democratic Senate and House without one Republican vote in 2009. The Republican Senate Leadership is so worried about getting Democrat votes, that it doesn’t have the collective will to get rid of the second-worst example of failed socialism in American History (only because the veterans healthcare system is the worst example). This is simple. Republicans have the majority. Repeal the law with or without the Democrats. Then fix things.
So now, the Senate Republican leadership says it will offer up the House version of the bill calling for a repeal with a two-year delay to provide ample transition to what they say is a “patient-centered” healthcare system. Wow. Patient-centered? We can only assume that the current system they are having such a difficult time getting rid of is a “government-centered” system. This is confirmed by the IRS trying to collect on those who did not sign up for socialist healthcare by sending out letters saying things like, “Our records show that you have unpaid shared responsibility payment for tax year ended December 31, 2016.” Even though the President has instructed the IRS to back off, it is trying to collect, plus interest.
“Shared responsibility payment”, really? This doesn’t have anything to do with healthcare. It is the money the government is siphoning off of the healthcare system. This system is broken. Congress needs to fix it. But there are too many in Congress who agree with socialism to get the job done. Americans need to remember this and fix it themselves by allowing the system to die its natural death through non-participation, AND getting rid of the socialists in Congress. They have made healthcare unaffordable and unreliable. This tax places an unjust burden on Americans. Ecclesiastes 3:13 says, “that every man should eat and drink, and enjoy the good of all his labor, it is the gift of God.” Government is not God. Its time for Congress to understand that and do the right thing.
