Right now, the big issue is "health care", specifically, "government provided health care." Why? Why is it that suddenly people seem to expect that it is the responsibility of the government to provide health care? I would say that food is more important than health care (you aren't very healthy if you starve to death)--should the government provide food? Arguably, housing is more important than health care (you aren't very healthy if you freeze to death)--is the government going to provide homes for everyone?
Here's a hint--the government has no money! The government does not produce anything--it only takes from the citizens. So "government provided health care" really means "healthcare funded by taking money from those who earned it and paying for healthcare for those who didn't."
I would REALLY like some senator or congressman to show me somewhere in the Constitution that says they can do that...
