130,000+ Signatures Submitted!
Last Friday I submitted over 130,000 signatures to the Colorado Secretary of State on behalf of the Health Care Choice for Colorado Issue Committee. What does that mean? Well, it means we are one step closer to getting the “Right to Health Care Choice” ballot initiative on your November ballot! We need 76,000 valid Colorado signatures out of the 130,000+ we submitted. The Secretary of State has 30 days to confirm that we have 76,000 valid signatures, and once that happens, it is official! As of now however, I am confident that the citizens of Colorado will have a chance to protect themselves from this monstrosity we call Obama Care.
Check out some of the media coverage we’ve already got since Friday – Denver Daily News, the Colorado Independent, and a cool Channel 9 video segment with a story.
So I should not have bought insurance for my husband. Then when he was taken by Flight for Life to a Level One Trauma Center and treated as a John Doe (until I could arrive), the taxpayers could have covered the $2 million that my insurance paid until he died 10 months later of a traumatic brain injury. It is obvious that if folks have no obligation to purchase insurance, but hospitals have an obligation to treat that one or the other will have to give. Are you saying that in the future people will be left at the side of the road to die if their families are not there with a checkbook large enough to pay out-of-pocket for treatment?

Well, since we aren’t required to purchase health care insurance now, I guess that everyone but Gayle did without and will not purchase insurance any time soon. Any responsible person will purchase insurance since it is there to protect your assets and wealth, not to keep you healthy.
I applaud the voters of Missouri and will vote in favor of this ballot initiative in November. Let’s have real choice in health care in Colorado.

This is great news! We were lied to about Obamacare and its costs, its coverage, and much more. The CBO was cornered into its original opinion that Obamacare would save the country money. But they have revised that opinion. Anyone who really thought that adding 30 million free loaders to a government controlled health care system would drive down the costs is just not well versed in economics. Now it is time to tell Congress that WE WILL NOT STAND FOR THIS TYPE OF TREATMENT. We do need some legislation to improve effectiveness and reduce the costs of our current health care system – but not the obamanition proposed. Have you tried to read the final document? I have and I am here to tell you that it is such a poorly written, contradictory, freedom robing, wealth redistributing, health care limiting, expensive, and otherwise outrageous document, that our children and grandchildren will never know how grand our current system is and their FREEDOM, HEALTH, and WEALTH will suffer if it is implemented.
