QUOTES OF THE DAY

“And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall set you free.”

John 8:32

“When we give government the power to make medical decisions for us, we in essence accept that the state owns our bodies.”

Ron Paul

“It is a bad sign when the people of a country stop identifying themselves with the country and start identifying with a group. A racial group. Or a religion. Or a language. Anything, as long as it isn’t the whole population.”

Robert A. Heinlein

“Freedom of press is limited to those who own one.”

H. L. Mencken

I appreciate that Ron Paul honestly believes this, but yet he continues to support the idea that a way out of our current situation is to provide tax credits for medical expenses, insurance premiums, etc.

Much like the voucher discussion, these strings that tie us to government, inevitably still leave them in charge. There are currently HSAs that provide a tax-free savings plan to spend on medical expenses. The problem is that the GOVERNMENT gets to determine what qualifies. Vitamins, health club membership, or other “natural” ways of improving your health….NO. Vaccines, bigPharma pills, surgery, etc……YES.

Indeed, when we give the government the ability to make medical decisions for us, they own us…..but why doesn’t Ron understand that tax credits or similar schemes simply maintain a version of that ownership?
