Mark Twain had it right back around 1910 when he identified the only criminal class in America: specifically, the Congress of the United States of America. If there is any doubt left in any thinking person’s mind as to the oneness of our so-called “two party system,” even they should by now be alarmed at the one track agenda that has US well along on the road to serfdom towards the global workers’ paradise envisioned by Communist vagrant Karl Marx.

No longer do we need fear Hillarycare! No longer should we take pride in having the finest healthcare system on the planet! No longer will the sick and infirm in Canada and England suffer alone! The patient in dire need of kidney dialysis slowly and painfully dying in England because of workers’ paradise socialism incapable of delivering a service so easily available in America need not suffer and die alone; Americans too will shortly participate in exactly the same kind of suffering thanks to the United States Congress of Criminals and its Godfather, George W. Bush.

But dialysis hasn’t been affected with this “legislation!” Don’t worry yourselves about that sheeple - the dimwits in our Congress of Criminals will screw that up too! And the Chief Executive Dimwit in the Red House in Moscow on the Potomac will likewise smirkingly approve it!

Doesn’t anyone in America recognize communism when it jumps left out of the slimy gutter and splatters right on your chest? And what “two party system?” Republicans have now forever lost their braggin’ rights to criticize big government socialists and squanderers like FDR and LBJ! Kamerad und Reichkanzler Herr George [W]ehrmacht Bush, Unser Führer, vill protect alle kinder in Hiss care! This Congress of Criminals outrage was Hiss doing. Yet another illegal law propped up by his neoconservative, national socialist, imperialistic cabal, running at about 1100 pages of “law” to bring about Frederic Bastiat’s worst nightmares of legalized plunder! It is doubtful the Congress of Criminals’ “honorable” members bothered or had time to read it, similarly to the ramming-through of the USA Patriot Act. Stroke of the pen - law of the land. Kinda Cool!

And just as in the case of illegal gun control and tax laws, the Congress of Criminals is inserting their numbers game routine; first, it will be a $250 annual deductible, declares a November 25th article entitled, “Analysts: Seniors’ drug costs to rise,” posted on MSNBC.com originating from the Associated Press. The article offers, “The $250 annual deductible is projected to rise to $445 by 2013.”

It continues, “The legislation that won final congressional approval would allow seniors to buy coverage - at an estimated monthly premium of $35 - for their prescription drugs beginning in three years. After they agreed to the monthly premiums and paid their first $250 in pharmacy bills, the coverage would kick in, paying 75 percent of their bills between $250 and $2,250. After that, there would be no further coverage until the beneficiaries’ drug bills for the year reached $5,100, leaving a gap of $2,850 that they would have to pay out of their own pockets. Above $5,100 the insurance would pick up roughly 95 percent of costs.”

The article then goes on citing estimates of future costs. These were obviously provided by the special interest consultants who prepared the legislation for Bush and his CoC. History has proven that they are least capable of reasonably estimating anything! The estimates won’t be anything near the actual costs, which will in all likelihood be at least ten or twenty times the costs predicted by these idiots!

Congressman Ron Paul points that this smacks of a bailout of benefit responsibilities payable to retired workers on the part of large corporations and insurance companies, which will now be shouldered by the American taxpayer. It will be a tremendous windfall for the pharmaceutical industry. Did the corporations take tax write-offs in the past for expense deductions for benefit premium payments on behalf of employees? Did the insurance companies avoid paying income taxes for funds collected as trust investments to provide future payouts to beneficiaries? Did the dumbed-down American taxpayer have to kick in more because of these tax exemptions, deductions and write-offs? And now, the taxpayer has to foot the entire bill too?

We need another Boston Tea Party but this time it needs to be in Washington, DC! The entire city of Washington should be dumped in the drink, as well as its Congress of Criminals, immediately after they’ve been appropriately tarred and feathered!
