“One of the traditional methods of imposing statism or socialism on a people has been by way of medicine. It’s very easy to disguise a medical program as a humanitarian project…

James Madison in 1788…said: ‘…There are more instances of the abridgment of the freedom of the people by gradual and silent encroachment of those in power, than by violent and sudden usurpations.’…

What can we do about this?…We can write to our congressmen and our senators… Say right now that we want no further encroachment on these individual liberties and freedoms… We do not want socialized medicine…

If you don’t, this program I promise you will pass…and behind it will come other federal programs that will invade every area of freedom as we have known…until, one day…we will awake to find that we have socialism.

And…you and I are going to spend our sunset years telling our children and our children’s children, what it once was like in America when men were free.”

These words were uttered by Ronald Reagan in 1961, one year before he became a Republican.  Do we think President Reagan would support “fixing” ObamaCare or would he call for full repeal?  His call for citizen action is still important today.  Call and write your congressman and senators about this and other issues.  Get involved this election year.  Participate in our Republic before Reagan’s final words are all we can do.
