Bear in mind, I am not a big fan of Mr. Romney, having been a manufacturer in MA. I am well aware of Romneycare and do agree with all your comments. If I had a choice, I would have liked to see a Mitch Daniels of Indiana, but that never came to be.
I am also, not a big fan of the Republican establishment, since it has the same attributes of Democrats where policy is devoid of tried and true principles.
However, Americans need to make a choice, and Obama going forward is tantamount to looking to Europe for solutions. He is devoid of understanding state sovereignty and individual liberty.
My mantra: dilution is the solution to pollution. Consequently, need to replace career politicians when we can, and make a choice based on simple criteria, of limited governance and fiscal responibility. So if Americans can pay attention, to vote at local, state and federal levels for candidates that espouse fiscal responsibility, and limited governance.
Government does not need to build community centers with gymnasiums at the local level or subsidize healthcare centers on Marco Island, nor devise a program to manage my healthcare at the federal level under a myriad of government departments created under Obamacare.
If we are to repeal Obamacare and look to more patient centric solutions rather than bureaucratic/insurance centric government regulations, to reduce government spending and manage debt, etc, there is NO hope with Obama.
I do understand, Romney is not perfect, and not even conservative from my perspective, but he promised he would repeal Obamacare and I believe he can because the Senate is looking like many Democratic seats will go to the other side.
I am concerned. But i am more concerned with news media not fulfilling its role to inform the folks. The over the air, mass news media is now a propaganda arm and biased.
ajm3s, you and I are cut from the same cloth. I have unfortunately realized that that cloth no longer has any meaning. The emperor has no clothes.
I do not mean this in a combative way. You are about to be severely disappointed. Romney, Obama, nor any of the Republicans or Democrats have any plans of repealing Obama care. This is and has been the plan for years now. Obama just happens to be the one to have pushed it through. It will take some time. I hope Romney wins. Only so people like you begin to understand that it is us (the people) vs them (the GOV) again. It is a cycle, it is human nature. There is no way around it. I promise, If Romney wins and they take the Senate Obama care will still exist. The cycle has reached that point. I will leave you with Jefferson again.
Experience hath shewn, that even under the best forms of government those entrusted with power have, in time, and by slow operations, perverted it into tyranny. Thomas Jefferson
