Strange Liberal

I am somewhat like a liberal but there are some issues that would make me seem strange. I think everyone should have health care. It should not matter how much money you make. How can a person get off welfare if jobs keep moving across seas. The jobs that did not move have laid thousands of people off. Unemployment checks can only go so far and food stamps can not pay for mortages, light bills, and etc. Social security checks will not exist because of the deficit we have today. The deficit has reached the highest in the history of America. Now we are borrowing money from China. There is a ressesion in the United States and if it goes any higher business problems will occur. The only power we have is the military. Do we have to fight with everyone. Oil should not be in high demand. Scientist have found away to stop using oil but for some reason the government ignores them. There are many issues that have changed the United States and this generation can make a difference.

I do agree that health care needs to be changed. But I don't want to have to pay for everyone. I think if you're employed you should get it. If it's universalized them everyone's business is out there. If there's some idiot riding without his seatbelt on and gets hurt, now you have to pay for him because he's a dumbass. I think that a change needs to be made, but you can only help people who are willing to change and want to help themselves.

I agree that their need to be changes in health care. I have never liked too much "Big Brother" interference in our lives but something has to be done! The problem the is politicians and powers that be are all wrapped up together in the mess we have now. I am talking Democrat and Republican.Everyone in Washington owes someone a favor and a lot of them are probably stockholders in the companies that are holding us hostage. But I bet all the politicians and their families have health insurance!
