Dear Congress: ARE YOU CRAZY?????
From Tim Andrews on Friday, November 20, 2009 3:51 PMThe following chain-email seems to be doing the rounds quite a bit today. And I think it sums the situation up perfectly:
A message to the Administration:
The U.S. Postal Service was established in 1775 - you’ve had 234 years to get it right; it’s broke.
Social Security was established in 1935 - you’ve had 74 years to get it right; it’s broke.
Fannie Mae was established in 1938 - you’ve had 71 years to get it right; it’s broke.
The “War on Poverty” started in 1964 - you’ve had 45 years to get it right. $1 trillion of our money is confiscated each year and transferred to “the poor”; it hasn’t worked and our entire country is broke.
Medicare and Medicaid were established in 1965 - you’ve had 44 years to get it right; they’re both broke.
Freddie Mac was established in 1970 - you’ve had 39 years to get it right; it’s broke.
Trillions of dollars were spent in the massive political payoffs called TARP, the “Stimulus,” the Omnibus Appropriations Act of 2009…. none show any signs of working, although ACORN appears to have found a new source: the American taxpayer.
And finally, to set a new record: “Cash for Clunkers” was established in 2009 and went broke in 2009! It took cars (that were the best some people could afford) and replaced them with high-priced and less-affordable cars, mostly Japanese. A good percentage of the profits went out of the country. And the American taxpayers take the hit for Congress’s generosity in burning three billion more of our dollars on failed experiments.
So, with a perfect 100% failure rate and a record that proves that “services” you shove down our throats are failing faster and deeper, you want Americans to believe you can be trusted with a government-run health care system- 20% of our entire economy???
With all due respect, Are you crazy? Or do you think the American people are?

"With all due respect, Are you crazy? Or do you think the American people are?" It doesn't really matter if they are crazy or think we are. The people we have elected and continue to reelect will do whatever they want to do BECAUSE we keep reelecting them and don't hold them accountable!! So, I guess the latter question is more pertinent. Until we, the American people, vote these bums out of office, we deserve what we get.

The people who make the Federal laws for the United States have forgoten about the "Cold War'made into Public Law 104-106 for the "Killed in Action" veterans, while the living Cold war veterans are made to suffer at the being peace-time Veterans at the Department of Veterans Affairs. World War II was over on September 2, 1945 by Public Law. The older Generation over 80 years of age don't accept the fact that their are other Wars that need to be recognized by the American people and the younger children. Many of the World War II veterans are still alive want to make the younger generation suffer while they get the best Heathcare in the World at the expense of the taxpaying generation.
