The U.S. Post Service was established in 1775 - they've had 234 years to  get it right; it is broke, and even though heavily subsidized, it can't  compete with private sector FedEx and UPS services.

Social Security was established in 1935 - they've had 74 years to get it right; it is broke.

Fannie Mae was established in 1938 - they've had 71 years to get it right; it is broke because congress moved its solvent funds to the congressional general fund and its' been losing money ever since -   Thanks LBJ & Congress.

Freddie Mac was established in 1970 - they've had 39 years to get it   right; it is broke. Together Fannie and Freddie facilitated the entire   world into the worst economic collapse in 80 years.  Thank you Congress.

The War on Poverty was started in 1964 - they've had 45 years to get it   right; $1 trillion of our hard earned money is confiscated each year and transferred to "the poor"; it hasn't worked.

Medicare and Medicaid were established in 1965 - they've had 44 years to get it right; they are both broke; and now our government dares to mention them as models for all US health care.

AMTRAK was established in 1970 - they've had 39 years to get it right; last year they bailed it out as it continues to run at a loss! This year, a trillion dollars was committed in the massive political payoff called the Stimulus Bill of 2009.  We will never see a payback for this political boondoggle.  But, you can now expect to pay higher taxes and start to see a devaluing of the US Dollar which will negatively impact your buying power.  It will be tough for those living on a fixed income.

Our national debt projections (approaching $10 trillion) have increased 400% and that's in the last six months.

Cash for Clunkers was another political payback to the unions while stealing money from the taxpayers to benefit the few.  Pure socialism at work.

So with a perfect 100% failure rate and a record that proves that each and every "service" shoved down our throats by an over-reaching government turns into disaster, how could any informed American trust our government to run or even set policies for America's health care system?
