JUST WHAT HAS THE GOVERNMENT RUN WELL? ALMOST NOTHING!

An absolutely brilliant article by Barry Goldwater Jr. over at The American Spectator entitled, “Health Care? The Government Can’t Even Run a Railroad” gives the facts point by point about why ObamaCare is doomed if ever enacted:

Medicare and Medicaid has ovr $60 billion in fraud per year!

Medicare has $36 TRILLION in unfunded liabilities!

The U.S. Postal Service lost $7 BILLION last year with major service cost hikes!

It is demonstrable that the Federal Reserve deserves direct complicity in the recent economic meltdown!

Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac bailed out to the tune of $400 BILLION!

After 38 years Amtrak continues an unbroken record of consecutive loses and federal subsidies!

After $2.5 TRILLION spent on drug prohibition it is very easy to get drugs on the streets of America!

The Department of Energy was established 30 years ago to achieve energy independence and we are not even close!

And you, Mr. President, want the federal government to run health care?
