PLAIN SPEAKING: ObamaCare is not good for Wisconsin
By MIKE HUEBSCH

Opposition to ObamaCare has remained steady since its March passage. More than half of Americans think the president and Democrats in Congress damaged the health care system and the national economy with their plan.

Protecting Wisconsin’s Sovereignty and Citizens

This week I authored a Senate Resolution that would give Attorney General JB Van Hollen the authority to file a lawsuit against the Federal government challenging the constitutionality of the new Federal healthcare law.  I believe our country has lost sight of our focus on achieving true health care reform. 

After reviewing President Obama’s healthcare law, Van Hollen has indicated that he found considerable evidence to commence a lawsuit on the individual mandate to carry health insurance or pay a penalty.  Currently, 14 attorneys general including one democrat have filed a lawsuit against the Federal government.

Wisconsin AG and Republican Lawmakers Fight Federal Health Care Takeover

According to Merriam-Webster, “to reform” means “to put or change into an improved form or condition.”  Democrats in Congress established a new national health care bureaucracy last weekend, but it didn’t earn the moniker of reform.  The failure to tackle what really makes health care expensive means things will only get worse.  The new laws will push costs even higher, diminish choices and jeopardize quality.

As with many Americans, I vehemently disagree with the congressional majority and the President regarding the passage of so-called health care reform. I'm not going to list the dirty laundry with that bill. That's not the focus of this post. My focus is, however, with how a few people have chosen to express their dissent toward the Democrats voting in favor of so-called health care reform.
 

People who lose their jobs and their health insurance can still get the care they need.  The question has always been, who pays for it?  Our church has door offerings all the time for people who have fallen on hard times.  We don't show them the way to the nearest government office.  We personally help each other.

The point I have been making for months on here and at CouleeConservatives.com is that our nation must get out of the selfish habit of shifting our personal responsibilities to the government.  When someone in your family needs help do you ignore them and insist that there is a government program for them or do you make room in your home for them and open your wallet?
