Dear Congressman John Shadegg,

I have been listening to the talk about the health care plan and death panels, and cost, and whether the government should manage our health care, but from my stand point we are missing the point. A government funded heath care plan is totally UNSUSTAINABLE not to mention we’ve got bigger fish to fry.

I believe the government needs to focus on social programs that are sustainable and that will build our future.

If you give me health care and I’ve got no job, I’m still hungry and broke. If you give me a job, I have the option to have health care or food, or kids education, or whatever I as a free American decide to have. To me that is freedom. I think it is not about taking care of the less fortunate, it is about choice.

If you go to the local Southwest Job Network meeting and say to that 1500 attendees “I’ve got a billion dollars in my hand and I can give you free health care or I can give you a job” you will hear a resounding JOB!. If you look at the demographics of the unemployed right now it is not some guy looking for his next bottle of wine, it is laid off construction workers, project managers, shop supervisors, real estate people, human resources, and secretaries.

The Obamakins say “every one has a right to have affordable insurance”. I say everyone should have a choice to have a job. That was the case up until this last year. You could always find a fast food place to go to work if you need to. But that is not the case today. There are now several thousand people that just want to work and earn there way.

A health care program will just make the people of this country more dependent on the government. Jobs or education will make this country and its people stronger with a vision for the future.

The infrastructure of this country is crumbling. Bridges out of date, sewer systems out of date, water systems out of date, the levees in Sacramento, CA are within a small earthquake or large storm from causing a catastrophic disaster to the LA basin and Sacramento. There is an endless number of opportunities for our government to put people to work on total sustainable programs that will invest not only in this generation, but future generations. This to me is the major point in this whole debate.

So help American take back it freedoms and build a strong base for this country to move forward. Stop this health care waste and lets get the eye on the future of America.

So I know the Obama people say anyone that is talking again health care is a plant, trust me I am not a plant . I am a hard working American trying to get our government off the fast track to disaster.
