Another Lettler To Brad

Gosh, here I am sending another letter to Brad Sherman when I haven't even given one months' time for a response to the last. Oh well, here it is:


Thank God you Democrats have dispensed with the bullshit talk of working in a 'bipartisan' manner! And you think the country needs to fear Republicans?? Honestly, Brad, this marks the end of our democracy. Your party is working BEHIND CLOSED DOORS IN SECRECY to take over another 20% of our nation's private enterprises, the entire Health Care System. That's millions of jobs, literally billions of dollars today and trillions tomorrow. Honestly, I hope that someone in your office reads this and thinks about it with an open mind. Do we really want the government to take over health care? The same people that run medicare, the post office, the welfare system, and hundreds of other entitlement programs are going to be in charge of our physical well-being. Doesn't that frighten anyone else? What you SHOULD do first is open up in health insurance agency to free market trade -- allow them to cross state lines in the spirit of true competition. THEN you should IMPLEMENT TORT REFORM. Make it so the losers of lawsuits have to pay ALL legal expenses, thus cutting down millions of hours of wasted court time. That would also quickly lead to lower malpractice insurance for physicians, thus lowering health care costs. THEN approach the non-insured by beefing up the VA system which is federal and already in place to take care of them. The health insurance industry was also going along much better when it was NON-PROFIT, too; that's another avenue to attempt before drastically changing our country's future. Or tell me SPECIFICALLY why Congress didn't try those ideas first?
