We are in the midst of a never ending battle, and I’m not talking about the War on Terror. I am talking about health care. Like abortion, this battle has been going on for years and it has no end in sight. Liberals and Progressives feel that the timing is right to move toward socialized medicine.

Viewed from the other end of the political spectrum, health care is also in need of reform. Conservatives have watched the slow crawl toward socialized medicine.

Once the cost of your health becomes a liability for the community, the community is likely to demand life style norms…norms put forth and enforced by liberals. It is a serious challenge to our liberties and freedoms.
No matter what passes in Washington, the battle will rage on.
