I have a bridge I'd like to sell...

Everybody knows that our health care delivery system needs fixing. Too many people are forced to make medical decisions on the basis of whether or not they can remain economically viable. What we definitely don’t need, however, is a hugely inefficient government-run health care program that is twice as expensive as the one we presently have.

But, then, improving health care was never something that Obama had in mind in the first place. As I’ve stated previously, what the Left really wants is to destroy America’s flagship – the dollar. If it hasn’t been damaged enough already (under Bush), health care reform and/or ‘cap and trade’ – two huge pending tax-and-spend bills - would surely suffice to render our currency virtually worthless.

Like I said, we may be there already – only we don’t know it yet because too much ancillary stuff is still linked to the dollar, all of which is dropping at the same rate. Keep an eye on price of oil. A barrel of oil at $35 is still only a single barrel at $70. It is not double the amount. The only difference is, that at $70 a barrel, our money (in real terms) is worth half as much.

Most of the world is already screaming for a new base currency. This is music to our president’s considerable ears. Obama will become the first American president to chair the UN’s 15-member Security Council this month. This is where everything from ‘global warming’ to the Palestinian-Israeli conflict is expected to be resolved. Then, I read this headline on Drudge yesterday morning: “UN wants new global currency to replace dollar...” Does anyone out there really think that Barrack Obama is going to the United Nations to defend the U.S. dollar? I have a nice bridge I’d like to sell to anyone who does.

Allow me to predict that he’ll endorse (in principle) the UN sponsored ‘global currency’ idea which will make us wards of the UN and subject to UN taxation. He will apologize; he will throw Israel under the bus. He will say all this and more to huge applause from the elite members of this august world body – and with barely a whimper from Congress and the American press. Nice work if you can get it!
