Consumer Warning: Healthcare Reform does not prevent death.

On the eve of one of the most historic weekends in our nation, I have been watching the pundits discuss ‘the vote’ with congressmen and women, radio and talk show hosts, and political columnists, pollsters, and strategists. One of the recurring things I’m hearing the democratic voices saying is ‘over 40,000 people die each year from lack of health care.'
I have two things to say about that…………..One is that those people obviously are not aware that they can walk into any health institution and can’t be legally refused care, thus our huge bill for our illegal immigrant population. Secondly, and most importantly, WE ARE ALL GOING TO DIE and health care reform is not going to prevent that.
Quality of life can be enhanced by good health care and for now, good health care can only be found in the United States, which is why so many people come here for treatment. Even the Canadian Prime Minister was here recently for his heart surgery.
Once the socialists and progressives begin destroying and dismantling what currently exists, admittedly it needs improvement, we will be left with a yoke of government that we will be hard pressed to remove. There are many, many, many great Americans with great ideas and suggestions for cheaper, more efficient and more cost effective ways to repair those things that need to be repaired without a government takeover.
And yes………..even with affordable, quality health care, each and every one of us will die one day. The more important question for us, is what then? Those of us bought with the blood of Jesus and sealed for eternity with our Creator will be truly free and happy at last, but what will we leave behind on this earth for our children and grandchildren? Are there politicians in this process that actually think they will escape judgment for the atrocities that they have brought upon this once great and Godly nation? Perhaps it’s time to consider more than their vote…their political career…..and the legal consequences.
“What good will it be for a man if he gains the whole world, yet forfeits his soul?”
Matthew 16:26
