Our government's expertise


Can our government run a healthcare system? Please read on - Democrats, Republicans, and Independents:
To President Obama and all 535 voting members of the Legislature,
  • The U.S. Post Service was established in 1775—you have had 234 years to get it right—and it is broke.
  • Social Security was established in 1935—you have had 74 years to get it right—and it is broke.
  • Fannie Mae was established in 1938—you have had 71 years to get it right—and it is broke.
  • War on Poverty started in 1964—you have had 45 years to get it right; $1 trillion of our money is confiscated each year and transferred to "the poor"—and they only want more.
  • Medicare and Medicaid were established in 1965—you have had 44 years to get it right—and they are broke.
  • Freddie Mac was established in 1970—you have had 39 years to get it right—and it is broke.
  • The Department of Energy was created in 1977 to lessen our dependence on foreign oil, it has ballooned to 16,000 employees with a budget of $24 billion a year and we import more oil than ever before—you had 32 years to get it right—and it is an abysmal failure.
