Focus: Health Care
It's not about better healthcare! Just like it's not about climate change!
Healthcare and climate change are just populist issues that the Left is exploiting in order to pass legislation that will make it easier to accomplish their true agenda--controlling every aspect of our lives.
The Left despises Corporate America, the Free Market, Capitalism and Individual Freedom. The Left believes wealth is a zero sum game--that people become wealthy only from another's loss. The Left believes that the wealthy have become wealthy by stealing from the less fortunate. That is why they believe in wealth redistribution--returning the money to its "rightful owner," the poor and the middle class.
85% of the American people are satisfied with the healthcare they are receiving. But instead of just tweaking the system to make the other 15% satisfied, the Left is seizing the opportunity to kill two birds with one stone: Destroy the private health insurance industry AND making the federal government the sole provider of healthcare. Once the federal government has full control of our healthcare system the Left will be in a better position to control our lifestyles through preventative healthcare.
