In This Dimension

Dear Senator _______

via fax: 202-nnn-nnnn

You are aware of the job-killing taxes in the offing for NYC to support Democrat-led redistribution, including healthcare.  You are aware that CA and NY both are shedding jobs, workers, taxpayers, tax receipts, while still paying out stupefyingly ridiculous sums to cover all kinds of insane programs, and that the Congress is doing the same.  Evidently CA remains a positive model of the future to Congress and Pres Obama rather than the model of the worst possible outcome of a once-free republic it most certainly is to thinking people.

Democrats for some reason remain in thrall to European statist ideas. Well, Europe wouldn’t have socialized healthcare unless American taxpayers paid for their defense. Our defense expenditures provide their socialized healthcare. As Democrats in Congress reduce our defense expenditures, regional arms races WILL occur. Countries will arm-up, taxes will switch from social to defense programs. In the end, the costs of the regional arms races will ensure the abandonment of healthcare across Europe just as those countries begin to disappear, Democrats having abandoned them just as you are abandoning deterrence and defense against DPRK, Iran, etc.

China will then realize it is funding the defense of its primary geopolitical opponent and, by extension, of the West.  They will cease doing so as their Middle Class grows and as they realize competition for resources will intensify across the 21st Century. When Congress must choose between buying Defense and healthcare with American tax receipts, and when China stops funding our Defense, who will help the little guy around the planet? Who will keep the smaller countries free? As our spending grows larger and as Obama continues his current policies of non-deterrence, these smaller countries will, like Georgia (“border disagreements”?), disappear. Larger countries will engage in nuclear arms races and ultimately nuclear warfare: Israel v. Iran, Japan v. DPRK, India v. Pakistan. The world will be far, far more dangerous. Tens of millions will die.

This isn’t about healthcare. It’s about the future of the West. All the rights Democrats pretend to hold dear will be snuffed-out should these policies take effect. Please consider that THIS is what your healthcare vote is really about

Just in case you are of the opinion that a vote for socializing our healthcare ever again will be rewarded by a vote from myself, my extended family, or anyone with whom I work in a growing small business, please disabuse yourself of that opinion. There is just no way it would ever happen.

Regards,
