'Health care' leads to control

I challenge all Democrats, Mr. Foster and President Obama to answer this question: Does having health care guarantee that everyone will receive all of the medical care or any of the medical care recommended by their doctors? The answer of course is a resounding no.

They cannot guarantee that you will receive the medical care you need, or that there are enough doctors or medical facilities; they cannot guarantee any of those things. That's odd, because they guaranteed access to quality health care.

The label of "health care" sounds so warm and fuzzy. Health care is health insurance and that's all, so when your legislator brags that you now have access to quality health care, what they essentially said is that you are now guaranteed to pay for insurance with no guarantee of medical services. Ironically, you could be denied medical care even though you carry health care. Sounds like a deceptive usage of words doesn't it?

Well Mr. Foster, Mr. Obama, are we guaranteed medical care? Listen carefully to the words they use, my friends. Health care is not medical care. A step further yet, you will still be required to pay for health care with each month's bill, while simultaneously you may be denied the medical care recommended by your doctor.

Think about this: even if you have health care, you could be denied health care. If health care isn't about medical care, then what is it?

Elementary, my friends. All of our daily activities can be related to health, whether it's the food we eat, playing soccer, or anything else, therefore, the government's control of "health care" provides the necessary authority to legislate and control all of our activities. That my friends is the definition of totalitarianism.
