New Year Begins With Nationwide Tax Increases
Now that the politicians are back in Washington, they are ready to get back to work taking more taxpayer dollars and spending the money on bailouts, government health care and special interest pork. President-elect Barack Obama is in town and has been meeting with leading liberals on Capitol Hill to plan their agenda for 2009. The only thing that can stop this far left agenda is an uprising of popular opposition from the American people.
To that end, please take a minute to help us deliver a message to Congress about health care and taxes. One of the first proposals that the liberals are pushing is a serious step toward government-run health care. They are trying to do this through a massive expansion of the SCHIP program, which would increase taxes on smokers to pay for government-run health care. Liberals in Congress are preparing for action on this bill now so that it is ready for Barack Obama to sign as soon as he gets into office. Please help us stop this from happening by TAKING ACTION NOW!
Whether you are a smoker or not, this proposed expansion of SCHIP is a threat to our fundamental liberties as it moves people from the private health care market to being more and more dependent on the government. Effectively, this is nothing more than a backdoor to Canadian-style socialized medicine. And because cigarette taxes are historically unreliable sources of revenue that never bring in the money that politicians promise, you can bet that once this latest proposed tax hike fails to adequately fund the massive expansion of SCHIP taxpayers will wind up getting stuck with the bill!
In order to make our health care system better, we need more competition and medical malpractice reform, not higher taxes and more government interference in markets.
This year is going to be filled with attempts by liberals to bust the budget, raise taxes on all Americans and increase our dependency on the federal government. President-elect Obama’s grassroots team is geared up to lobby Congress on his behalf for these liberal policies, and freedom-loving citizens are the only ones who can stop them.
HELP US SEND A MESSAGE now that we will not sit idly by while our money is confiscated and wasted by politicians and bureaucrats in Washington. Let’s make a statement that we will resist the move toward socialism, which starts with the battle against expanding SCHIP and leading us down the road to government-run health care.

JASmius adds: Actually, nobody can stop them. The 2008 election guaranteed that. For the next two years at minimum, "freedom-loving citizens" are defenseless against the imminent Marxist onslaught.
There was the "progressive" surge in the 1900s, the New Deal in the 1930s, the Great Society in the 1960s. Red Barry's "American Recovery and Reinvestment Act" is simply the renewal of that thirty-year cycle that the Gingrich "Revolution" managed to forestall for a decade and a half. It's a bullet we won't be able to duck twice.
By all means, let's not sit idly by. Just know that the cost of making Mr. Armey's statement may well be political imprisonment.
