Health Care and personal responsiblity

I listen to President Obama's speech last night on Health Care. Not one time, in that speech, did he say "you are responsible for the health of yourself and your family" In his mind and all liberal, socialists in government is that they have to do every for us. We too stupid to anything for ourselves. Health Care is based on two things (1) you get sick and have to go to the doctor(2) you get started on one or a group of medications. Remember, the doctor doesn't get paid unless you are sick or think you are. In rare cases, health plans pay doctors a set fee for all the patients on that plan, no matter how many of then come to see him. This makes the doctor want to see you well and not sick. This is very rare. Next the companies selling the medications can't make money unless you take their medications. Watch all the ad's on TV, there is a drug to cure everything. Forget that the side effects of some of these drugs are worse that the condition you have or don't have. The ad's are to tell you have a certain condition and you should run to the doctor for this medication. You always see some actor that looks like a doctor, in a white coat, telling you to run for this medication or some other actor telling how great this product is. Remember, you have to be sick or think you are sick for doctors, hospitals and so to make money. This new government health plan congress is trying to ram thru is not about health care. It's about making you and me depedent on them and being able to control us.
You health is the best thing you have. Without good health , what do your have? Nothing!
Treat your health as if it was worth a billion dollars. It is.
What is required for normal person to have good health. (1) Eat the right foods, stay away from all that junk food. (2) Exercise regulary (3) Keep your weight under contol.(4) no smoking, heavy drinking or drug use. (4) Take vitamins and mineral supplements.
We have the best health care system, in the world, with the worst health. Americans, as a whole put no value on their health. They think doctors can fix anything. They can't. I repeat,
treat you health as if it were worth a billion dollars. It is.
We should all be personally responsible for everything we do it life, including our health.
I am going to do my best to keep my good health. I hope you are too.

Good,Bad and Greed

It seems to me as I look around at people, in our society, that everyone is our for themselves and to hell with anyone else or thing. It use to be, in this country, we all tried to help each other. Not anymore.

Most people are fairly honest when times are good and it's to their advantage to be so. A few people I know are good and will remain good, even when it doesn't benefit them. Others are sem-good, good when it benefits and bad when it benefits them.More and more people seem to drifting into the bad or really bad area.More and more people are going to jail. Crime in one the rise. A lot of people think that it's society fault for where they are in life.It's not my fault you in financial shape you are in. No, it yours.

Society has taught that if something happens to you, it's not your fault. It was your childhood or a million other reasons it not your fault. What a bunch or crap. Everyone, for the most part, are responsible for what they do and where they are in life.

Now lets get to the greed. People were buying houses, they  couldn't afford, taking out loans they couldn't afford and when the loans reset they though they could just refinance and keep going. They didn't care when happened in the future, now they have that big house and they can tell all their friends or relatives how big success they are.Next we have banks and loan agents getting all kinds of people into houses they know they couldn't afford. Why, because of greed. The loan broker says "Look at all this money I can make, putting these stupid people in to these houses they can't afford" The Banker says "Look at all these loans I can sell and make money.Now that the whole system has come apart, everyone is blaming everyone else. The homeowner says "The loan Broker or Bank lied to me". The loan broker says "The Homeowner lied to me- how did I know he didn't make $90,000 a year working at Jack-in-the-box." The bankers says "The loan broker told me this paper was good, how did I know it bad" All this was done in the name of greed.In real life, A lot these liers and crooks should go to jail. Will they, no. There just too many of them.

In our society, it seems that if you become successful, how you make it for the most part, doen't enter into the it. You made it and that all that counts. Success, to me isn't measured in what you own, but who you are.

Greed is going to be the downfall of our society. As people want more and more, especially from the government, the more freedoms we lose.
Strive to be the person you would want people to look up to. In the end I have more than most of those greed-bad people. Being good has it rewards.

Hate Speech, Yes or No?

The words Hate Speech has been coming up more and more as more people are looking more closely as President Obama, his administration and his friends in Comgress. What people are saying, mainly on radio and in print sees to be seen by left,progressive socialist as Hate Speech.Hate Speech is a term that has been used for a long time in Europe where they don't have a 1st admendment. So the liberals pick it up to confuse us and make us thing all these people on the right are guilty of Hate Speach. No one is guilty of Hate Speech.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
One, well known Radio Talk Show Host(with 8 to 10 million listeners per week) Michael Savage was banned from England for what they called Hate Speech. How could this be, Savage's program is not broadcast in England and very few people there knew who he was before the ban. Savage has been one of loudest to talk against the actions of the Obama Administration. This ban was a warning to everyone else, don't mess with Obama, this could happen to you.
 
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
When someone, some Radio-TV program, Book, Newspaer or Website tell you someone is guilty of Hate Speech, just remember they are trying to take away someone's free speech rights.Free speech is for everyone and that mean everyone.
 
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
I will defend you right to Free Speech, even if I don't agree with, if you will defend my right to Free Speech, even if you don't agree with me.
Hate Speech doesn't exist in this country as long as we have the 1st Admindment. Some people want to distroy that. We can let them do that!
