Healthcare or Insurance ... YOU Decide

Our Union of States continues to wrestle with a problem that predates our 
founding. Unfortunately, the focus has morphed from healthcare to insurance.

Not surprisingly, our founders focused on providing healthcare  on a state level with a mix of state and private funding. Guess what? It worked. 

Ben Franklin's genius was rooted in common sense. In Pennsylvania he sought to gain healthcare for those that couldn't afford it - and he did. 

Now we're focused on insurance while few can afford healthcare. No surprises here. 

Hospitals with more administrative than medical staff; billing clerks with 4 year degrees and loads of lawyers on retainer. Healthcare? No, government insurance. 

Common sense demands we begin again where Dr. Franklin left off. Get the federal government out of the insurance business and return the focus of citizens and state legislatures to healthcare. We already know this works.

Veterans Day

I practice my faith without fear, I’ve raised four beautiful  daughters in a peaceful community, I volunteer in our political  process and host a political talk show (often critical of our   government) and I run a gun shop. There’s no place else in the world I could have such a blessed  life and that fact is specifically and directly because of   our US Military.  Thank you to all the men and women of our US Armed  Services, both Active Duty and Veterans!

Defending Your Home and Country

Tell me something..... would you not defend your home; your family, your children?  Who in their right mind would leave their front door open when they know their family is under a heightened threat? Not me.  So, why would we not vet who is coming into our country, our neighborhoods, our schools, and work places?  When will we have had enough and set aside political correctness in favor of common sense?  Vetting visitors isn’t racist - it’s reasonable. Common sense doesn’t care who an immigrant is or where that immigrant is from - if we can confirm that immigrants history.  And, if we can’t - common sense demands that immigrant be barred until we can.  Some will say we’re not at war, but those that seek to murders our sons and daughters don’t recognize such politically correctness  Common Sense demands enough already - vet immigrants to our shores or bar them from entry.

.... on what’s important

Given the choice of all the countries of the world - I’ll stay put, right here in our Union of States  No matter what our differences ....  We some how come back together when we need to ... when it matters.  Is it by God’s design? I believe so, yes. Our country, our lives are a gift to us, something to behold, to embrace and hold dear. That’s how we keep it so ...  I often here the question, ‘isn't anything sacred anymore’? Fear and Anxiety drive such decent .... understandable, I know.  But, my answer is still unequivocally- yes. Know this - that’s not how I see our culture - it’s way more personal than that. I cherish so much in life, indeed - I cherish life itself.  Thank God we have the freedoms of differing opinions and the grace to be as one when fate calls upon us.
