Can We Stop The Political Corruption?

Maybe, maybe not. But it may take more than elections.

Brazen public corruption will only stop when forced. Talking…complaining…dissecting are warmly welcomed by the political class — because it means you’re not prepared to force.  The political class is reassured by your talking & complaining, and hopes it goes on forever………

Pissed Off Yet? Just Wait

Watch these two videos. The first one is rather short but should get your attention. The second is a bit longer but will scare the shit out of you.

Tea Party Healthcare Solution

Tea Party Healthcare Solution

Well if it’s not it should be. Notice how he mentions how Obamacare is keeping the expensive healthcare model in place and adding bureaucracy. Common sense is hard to argue, political greed and corruption is the only thing standing in the way.

The proper solution to the crisis resulting from enormously expensive healthcare is not to leave the expensive business model in place and then finance it with tax money, but to cause its price to implode to affordable levels by removing all the state-enforced monopolies and institutional frameworks that make it so expensive. Imagine a society where one of Pfizer’s $10 pills cost fifty cents, an MRI was $250, outpatient treatments and tests were covered by $70/month dues at a cooperative clinic, and catastrophic insurance was $50/month. That’s what we’d have if corporate-state collusion and monopoly were replaced by competitive markets and horizontal cooperation.

Before you make something “free,” think long and hard; you may also be making it compulsory.
