Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul wants the federal government out of the health care business.
Paul is known for his libertarian views, and he’s drawing lots of people in this week’s swing through New Hampshire.
He told an overflow crowd of about 500 at an event Tuesday night that there’s no provision in the Constitution for Medicare and Medicaid, the federal programs that cover millions of seniors and children.
The congressman from Texas says individual states should be left to provide whatever health care coverage they want.
Paul says he doesn’t want to throw seniors and children off federal health care programs. But he says a free society shouldn’t let government meddle in important services like health care.

The federal govenment is too i9ncompetent to fiddle with citizens health care. when do we get reasonable??/
This is the only correct view. That a Speaker would say that "we have to vote for it so that we will know what's
in it," is absolutely the worst thing that any Congress has done to us!
That vote was for Obamacare. This article is about Medicare and Medicaid. And he's right. None of it is really constitutional. It's all socialized medicine.
Right now, we should be equally if not more concerned about the UN's Agenda 21 that is being implemented as we speak. No, it has never been debated or voted on by Congress, but Dictator Obozo has given it the go-ahead, as did GHWB and Clinton. We, the people, will all be reduced to paupers, racked and stacked in the cities, as the globalists take control of our rural and farm land and return it to pristine its condition. If you're a "useless eater," you will be eliminated. Please watch this video .. it is concise and easy to understand:

WE definitely need to get out of the UN…..and we need to tell them to move to another country and get the heck off our property. We need to get rid of Obamination and Hillary who are gung-ho for ruining this country.
WE need to abolish Obamination's healthcare bill……it will ruin this country……as is his intent.
We can't take Medicare away from people over 50 who have been ordered to pay all their lives in to the Medicare and Social Security funds……………not right or fair.
BUT we need to start something new for the people under 50………..
If Ron Paul wants to abolish Medicare and Social Security…..it has to be done gradually.
The gov't has been stealing the money for decades…. that is why it isn't there for our senior citizens. It would be a good idea in the long run to take away this "piggy bank" away from the thiefs in WDC. Not all states are going to be very good at "their own plans"……as it is in Colorado where I live……it would be much worse. Obama's lackey's run Colorado.
