Gov't Shutdown's Political CLIMATE CHANGE

All I've heard from Obama supporters is that Republicans are obstructionists, 'out of touch with reality,' and obsessed with rejecting Obamacare; whereas Democrats want a "clean bill" to fund the National Park Service, the Veterans Administration Benefits, etc. ; and that Obamacare is "old news and has nothing to do with it, so why can't Republicans 'get over it' and stop punishing Veterans for it,' that Republicans don't even make sense, have 'no points,' just nonsensical obstructionist diatribe, all "partisan politics," but they (Democrats) are "none of that."

Personally, I see more partisanship from the Dems than the Reps, and I don't like either one.

"You act just like it," I told one Obama supporter, who just interupts the moment I attempt to get-in my 'two-cents' worth; silencing my point-of-view, incapable of intelligent discussion about the topic, engaging only in ad hominems.

I mentioned a recent TV interview:  a reporter, sitting in chairs on a lawn by the Capitol, asking a US Rep how they "feel", regarding getting their own paychecks while denying pay/benefits to wounded Veterans and many others.  The US Rep said something like, "I am working, that's the difference."  I also mentioned the interview of another Congress member who said they are "asking that paychecks be withheld until the government-funding issue is resolved."

Meanwhile, the President is interviewed, and everything he says is still about SELLING INSURANCE.  That's the bottom-line:  selling insurance.

My view about Obamacare is that it's a sales-job, nothing more than selling job-security for generations of future college grads, at taxpayer expense.  Bottom-line.  All professional union jobs, the number-one dollar-generator for politics, mostly Democrats, therefore a huge infusion of money for Democrats, at taxpayer expense.  Sure, there will be 'expanded coverage' for the 'uninsured,' but real medical-care for the needy, it is not.  And those furloughed, or not paid today, due to the fake 'shutdown,' live in houses, know that luxury, making careers claiming they are about 'helping the needy, helping the poor, helping veterans and wounded war heroes,' (who have no luxuries at all, and are condemned, ridiculed and scorned for every cent spent, every product they love, they are hated for buying it, then doubly-taxed just for their love of a product, such as tobacco or alcohol for self-medicating their non-luxury lifestyles, generally without homes to live in, 'migratory' in a sense, any moment could be their last, such as I).

All of which is taken foregranted, those luxuries, those benefits, those comfortable-living lifestyles, where sitting in a chair on a nice warm day, talking, is called 'work.'  I know what real work is, and talking certainly isn't work.  Nor is pushing-around paperwork, and Obamacare, and professional unions concoct more paperwork than any group of people in the history of the world, knowing fully-well that paperwork is the number resource drain in existence, taking a 'bite' out of every service, every job, every economy, every lifestyle, all paid-for by the poorest of the poor, off the backs of the working poor, the neediest of the needy, seniors, disabled, wounded vets and everybody else.

That ideological diversity is ignored and intentionally hated via Obamacare, a new form of 'faith-based' agitation, where selling paperFAKEwork is of higher-priority than environmentalism, conservation, and the most important aspect of government: defending equality.  It's job-security at taxpayer expense, for future generations of college-grads pushing-around paperwork and talking about the needs of the people, spending all the money for themselves, in selfishness, while outlawing and branding and taxing (punishing) everybody else.

Sure, there may be 'expanded coverage' -- (paradigm shift, because the real topic is selling insurance, and that's all, at taxpayer expense) -- but per-procedure medical-services is about maximizing profits for a few, at the expense of the many.

Remember the topic?  EFFICIENCY, CONSERVATION, ENVIRONMENTALISM, including political CLIMATE CHANGE.

See how that works?  Selling insurance (Obamacare) is NOT THE TOPIC.  Who is making it 'the topic' at every mention of anything regarding government?  Obama.  That's what partisanship is, the blame-game of diversion.

I disagree with much/most of what the 235-yr ongoing pissin' match between Republicans and/or Democrats has to say about most everything.  Can you imagine the luxury of never being allowed to discuss -- free-expression -- the real topic, every topic 'hi-jacked' into yet another squabble about selling insurance?  Who did that?

Meanwhile, homelessness is on the rise;  meanwhile, Gays and Lesbians are still denied 1,157 rights and responsibilities in this, the land of fake 'equality', yet Obama (Dems) claim to have "defended Gay Rights' ) --  sure, if an employee of government -- but nothing has changed for the average Gay or Lesbian, and those who live in states without Marriage Equality protections have a 236% increase in expensive psychiatric (private medical) conditions, including depression, domestic violence, drug and alcohol abuse, obesity and other issues that will now (under Obamacare) generate job-security for professional-union members unto perpetuity.

Recently, and rather tangentially but related, I listened to SCOTUS Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg on the radio.  She said she hasn't had to cook a meal for herself in 30-yrs; and that she views the 2nd Amendment as "misinterpreted" by SCOTUS, that it's really about funding militias with arms, because historically there was no money to fund a formal military.  That is the same as saying that We The People have no right to private gun ownership.

Can you imagine the luxury?  Without my right to keep and bear arms, I would not be alive.  Can you imagine the luxury? Without my right to own firearms, I would have starved to death.  I've cooked most of my meals over the past 30 years.  I can't imagine the luxury, the fake-majesty of such ideologies that would deny me that right, nor the luxury of claiming some form of 'non-bias' while making decisions about others to deny them of that right.  I can't imagine it.

I can't imagine another tax-bill of $237-500/mo per family.  I don't care what it's for.  There are many months, before September 2001 (and since), before I became disabled, where I could not afford the $50 or more per month MANdated Auto Insurance tax-hike.  Sure, nobody goes to jail for failing to have MANdated auto-insurance; only for failing to pay a fine, so there aren't even statistics collected about that.  It will be the same for this tax-hike.  You won't go to jail for not having MANdated health insurance, but you will be fined, then jailed for failure to pay a fine.

Can you imagine the luxury?  Making-up some 'rule,' that puts money in your own pocket, and then when the 'rule' is not paid/observed, put more money in your own pocket by punishing with a fine for not observing said 'rule,' THEN, claiming the 'rule' has nothing to do with it?

It's not about Obamacare, and the pardigm-shift tactics are scurrilous, at best.  Be healed of it.

Kind regards, always,
