World is going down hill fast

Over the past few weeks I have thought about this. It has bugged me forever but the other night it came to a point where I just had to let it burst out. "This world is going to hell and I know how and why!"
First off the reason I got upset. I have posted on forums and blogs many time. I usually try to be more of a middle man and I try not to start a fight. But I do say it as I see it and I give reasons why. Well when one of those posts get's deleted or reported because someone got insulted by one thing I said I have every right to get upset. I will do my best from now on not to support these sites.
Now the reason for the issue. Everyone now feels that they have the right to cry about everything. They whimper about how you say something. Not what you mean by it. They take offense to everything. A black person, if they so desire will or are looking for it can make anything look racially motivated. A Hispanic man will say it's you fault he is poor and uninsured even though he is not the one looking for a good job or finishing his education. A feminist will say she was not given a job because she was a woman. Not because she was not as qualified as the person that actually got the job. I am sure there will be someone out there that will be insulted that I used hell in this blog, and to that I say. Dammit I can say what ever the hell I want!
This happens all over the world. You cannot say your thoughts anymore. You cannot give an educated answer unless you have 5 Ph D's on that subject. Otherwise people will take offense to it. They will say your a nut and a crazy angry man. Democrats are getting upset because republicans are demonizing the president. Well I just say it's all fair. The democrats have been doing that for years against Bush. All is fair in love and war as they say. if you give it you better be able to take it.
As for the current American arguments. Healthcare is not a human right, it is a privilege. A right is th freedom to live and breath. If you do not take care of yourself now. we should not be expected to take care of you later when it is already to late. America gives opportunities. They give you the opportunity to have better healthcare. they give you opportunity to have a better job, bigger house, more money. These are not rights. These are not things that should be given to you. You can cry all you want about it. If we want to pour our money to the needy. Give them more opportunities for education. more opportunities to get a good job. Those will give them opportunities to get better healthcare.
Human kind does not need to be pampered and taken care of. We learn by trials. We learn by the hard times that we have to go threw. We learn to take better care of ourselves. If you are not worried about what everyone else is saying you will stop taking everything said as a potential insult.
I cannot say that I have not been part of this and I cannot say that I will never be again. But from now on I am going to do everything I can to not be a part of this system anymore.

Do we Really need a Public Option? Really?

Ok so this might be late. because it has so far been pushed out or tones down on the current health bill. But Do we really need a public option? I do not see why we do.
Liberals like obama will tell you that we do because there are 50 million people that are not insured in this country. To which I say. How many of those 50 million chose not to be insured because the feel invincible.
Now they will also tell you that this will just be another option in our current healthcare system? Really so we need another option. Do not the plethora of health insurance companies out there consitute plenty of options? do we need one more that just happens to be goverment run?
They will tell us that healthcare costs are way to high. To that I answer. Yes it can be extremly high. But also if you are in general good health you can get a insurace program that is relitivly cheap. More of an emergincy insurance. Fix the little bumps and dings that you will get along the way. The current insurance that I have I am not even sure if I need that much coverage. I am a lucky one though. Because my company still pays for me to be covered. But If I had to. I would be able to get health insurance for half the cost somewhere else.
They will tell you 30+ other countries are doing it and are happy. To which I answer. "Yes and the people in that country will get the extra health insurance provided by companies just so they can get better care that the national one just cannot provide."
So why would we need a public option? I do not see any reason other than the current Goverment wants to be a do all Goverment. We would not get a health benefit. We would not truly get a cost benefit. All we would get is another possible provider or in some cases a second provider.
