Citizens Speak Up

Today as I was sitting at my kitchen table I was watching a Fox News program. I saw people at the different town hall meetings expressing their displeasure with the perspective representatives on the matter of the health care bill and what it means for Americans across the nation.

We all have been paying attention to the different points of view from the left to the right to the middle. Everyone has an opinion and what they feel they bill will do for our health care system as we currently know it.

I have had to use the health care system at different times in my family life whether it was having my knee stitched up after being hit by a car on my bicycle to having my gull bladder removed. Now I have insurance and it was all covered. But I also have had to use the health care system when I didn't have insurance and I was still able to get my appendix removed and I was taken care of very well.

I know that we have the best darn health care system in the world. It is not perfect and there is always room for improvement but that does not mean that I want it completely overhauled by this current administration. Why re-invent the wheel? Why take something that works and then trash it to then only put in the hands of government? We know all to well that our government is not in the business of doing things well let alone run a health care system. So let's be honest and truthful about this matter and get past our own personal party politics and really deal with what the health care system needs, an honest look by honest eyes that don't have a vested interest. Big order? You bet but it can be done.

That is why I was motivated to set up this blog because I want my voice to be heard and I want to have those who are honest whether they agree with me or not to be heard also. It is time for Americans to start being Americans and take up the responsibility that we as citizens of the greatest country that has ever been in existance, let us be the real leaders that we all are capable of becoming.

In the days following this post I am going to be putting up videos and comments that are from my personal point of view. I will be approaching this from my world view and my own convictions. some things will be received well and some things will be not received so well but either way, I hope to at least motivate my fellow Americans to be the real government that we are supposed to be and hold accountable those who we vote into office to do what they were voted into office to do...work for the people!
