Milton Friedman 30 years ago on the dangers of socialized medicine in America.

[WOOKIEFISH]

For those of you who are not familiar with the great Milton Friedman, he was one of the most celebrated Nobel Prize winning economists in modern times.

Not just for is economic acumen but also the geopolitical repercussions that historically result from government interference.

Here is a clip from 1978 of Friedman at the Mayo Clinic providing multiple reasons why Gov’t healthcare would be destructive to the American way of life.

Everything old is new again.

That is a great video, sadly the aholes in this country pushing for this are too stupid to realize it and the rest of the people have no clue or simply don't believe this will happen so they don't do anything they sit at home until its too late. The way this bill is structured it is clear their goal is for full socialization of the program.

The best way to defeat this would be if all the employers in this Country would stat to announce they will be laying off and moving jobs overseas, that stop this in its tracks, the fact they don't say this does not mean it won't be done, they will in fact reduce their payroll through contractors and outsourcing. There is not an industry in this country that can be safe from it.

Even the Unions members who think they can get themselves exempted are truly going to be the ones hurt the most in the long run. If the jobs move away there will be no need to expand here.

The trend to go to China is at an alarming rate, you simply cannot compete against them for their products, they can out produce us on all areas and do it cheaper then anyone in this country would be willing to work for, the buy American slogan holds no water anymore.

No expansion no need for building trades – their membership is unsustainable. Pensions fail do to contribution loss.

As China grows it truly becomes the factory of the World. They will be omitted from Cap and Trade therefore have an UNFAIR advantage over the American Workforce.

People need to realize where this is heading. The sky may not fall as some have said "to marginalize the people who speak thier minds" but it sure will not be the America that people flock to in the future.
