  • Who said it?

    “One of the traditional methods of imposing statism or socialism on a people has been by way of medicine. It’s very easy to disguise a medical program as a humanitarian project. Most people are a little reluctant to oppose anything that suggests medical care for people who possibly can’t afford it.

    [under government controlled healthcare], the doctor begins to lose freedom… [patients] are equally divided among the various doctors by the government… so if a doctor decides he wants to practice in one town and the government says to him, you can't live in that town… the doctor will have to go. And from there, it's only a short step to dictating where he will go.

    All of us can see what happens once you establish the precedent that the government can determine a man's working place and his working methods, determining his employment. From here it's a short step to all the rest of socialism, to determining his pay. And pretty soon your son won't decide, when he's in school, where he will go or what he will do for a living. He will wait for the government to tell him where he will go to work and what he will do.”

    It wasn't a big change but in organization such as the church these types of statements by the head person takes yrs/decades to slowly make it way to more of common place within that organization.

    another one- "Am I not destroying my enemies when I make friends of them?"

    Ah. That one is surprising. Good one !

  • I'll guess Mohammed. But I'll have to look it up. WSS

  • ha ha! I wasn't even close. A little bit ironic since he slaughtered hundreds of thousands but a nice thought huh? WSS

  • Not sure about the slaughtered, but it was towards the end of the war when people wanted him to go wipe them out and he was leaning more towards reconciliation.

  • Not sure about the slaughter?

    I think we may tend to sanitize the idea of war in previous centuries.

    This is the gateway to turning this nation into a communist country. We already parralel a lot of the same principals with all of our laws and regulations. If you can recall back in the days of your youth while attending school we were taught that in communist countries only those who work for the party get to enjoy the luxuries of life while the rest broke their backs providing it for them.

    Now sit back and look at our current economic state of the union. Many folks are forgoing retirement and staying in their field of work because they cannot afford to live if they were to retire . Many working class citizens are not able to afford vacations homes etc. But if you are a government employee many are alotted these things, banks and lending institutions know they can always lend to people with government jobs because they know they will never be layed off.

    Now go break your back and pay your taxes because to many welfare and government employees depend on you to provide for them.

    I don't like Obamacare either, just to be clear.

    However, this paragraph mirrors the new Republican Party's minor platform...home school vouchers; the disdain for public school education because they believe teachers cost too much money; the desire to kill public employee pensions.

    Fiscal responsibility, or socialism? The Rs are just as guilty of socialist ideology here. "Many companies don't have pensions, so why should public employees have one?"

    Politics suck by both parties.

    **********************************

    I love the home school vouchers, btw. Some folks deserve to have another option. They still pay taxes and support

    the schools ...well, unless they aren't property owners maybe...@@

    The disdain for public education isn't because teachers cost too much money, it's because so many ed systems have

    fallen into liberal political correctness, and liberal courses in the curriculum. And, a lack of discipline of bullies/serious troublemakers.

    I love the teachers' pensions. Married a teacher, they EARN it. I have big problems with the NEA, and state "EAs". Locked into

    one party via the union reps, etc. If you are a conservative teacher, you shouldn't be required to pay liberal support dues

    to the teachers unions. If they aren't going to represent you politically, you should at least be able to earmark your dues

    to "non-political". You watch that be tried, the unions will go ballistic.

    ***************************************

    Wrong argument. I don't see "socialist ideology" in the Reps. Public employees should not have unions. Well, at least

    not for financial gain reasons. Fair treatment, okay. But public employees striking against the same people who pay

    all the bills? The gov of the people, by the people, for the people, should not have the power to dictate or leverage

    union activity against those same people. Pretty much negates the "of, by and for" eh? How can a union strike, or negotiate

    more money in pay and bonuses and retirement funds... against people who are already taxed to the max?

    It's an unworkable situation if the stuff hits the fan. JMO, Bob

    Yes. When you get rinos with no spine or legitimacy like McCain, Graham, on one side, and President Clinton and her husband Bill,

    Biden/Schumer,Reid/Pelosi, Obamao, Holder etc etc.....

    They all need to be thrown to the curb. But I'm more disappointed with the dems. They passed Obamaocare, most of them

    didn't read it, research it, or care.

    It was a political gamble for utopian bragging rights and votes. But, it's backfiring on them.

    So much of politics these days has gotten corrupt and out of hand. It's all about mo money, mo votes, mo reelections,

    etc..... than serious convictions of right and wrong. It's really hurting this country, and sending us down a destructive road..
