Our Health Care Isn't Broken: The Government Is!

We've been hearing over and over that "our health care system is broken" but there seems to be a little fly in the ointment. 89% of the people like their health care, so how do you get broken out of that. And if there are some folks for which the system doesn't work, then fix that, but don't break what actually works. However, generally all of the things that are broken about the system were broken by the government, intentionally. The government has been getting more and more intrusive in all sorts of ways that are dysfunctional and frankly unconstitutional. SEE HERE
I've been trying to feature some of the examples that illustrate this issue. People seem to be waking up as states declare their 10th amendment sovereignty:

Seven states passed resolutions this year affirming their sovereignty, and resolutions were introduced in 30 others. Some states have filed lawsuits or taken legislative action to challenge federal laws. SEE HERE

What is actually broken is not the health care system but the Federal government which was supposed to have checks and balances, but has instead gotten into runaway mode. Now our new president is bent on overwhelming the system with financial irresponsibility, with overwhelming new intrusion into the private sector, taking over banks, automobile manufacturing, health care, organized labor, and energy, and on and on. The president has called for a federal police force as large as the military. If that doesn't scare you to death you have not read history. Do the words "Ruby Ridge" or "Waco" ring a bell? They were examples of government gone wild and it was lethal. That was just the BATF (Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms) running hog wild and demonizing people, compromising their rights, generating an incident and exercising lethal force on people who were innocent.
This is a situation which has progressed steadily going back at least to the New Deal, but with ground work laid even earlier. It has now progressed to close to the tipping point. Once the tipping point is passed there is no going back, no retrieval, the system collapses. Tyranny Rising!
