All young Americans need to wake up and pay attention. You are being sold out by the federal government. Your future will be bleak indeed if you do not heed my warning. You are being sold down the river on so many fronts that I cannot list them all in this short article, but I will attempt to give you a small glimpse of what your future holds if you do not stand up. You need to get informed NOW. You need to speak up and let your voices be heard.

Right now social security and medicare and broke. The country is bankrupt. The government led people to believe for years that there was money set aside for social security. It was never set aside. It was always a lie. There was never a fund for social security nor is there one for medicare or medicaide.

These entitlement payments are paid each month from the money that is withheld from your paycheck. It is, and always has been, a giant ponzi scheme. In the early years it worked because the baby boomer generation was a larger part of the population than the elderly who were drawing on the programs. They were young and working, so there were lots of withholdings with which to pay. All these millions of baby boomers are starting to retire.

There are far far fewer young people to take the money fromand you must support a much larger population of the elderly. That means to support these programs the government will have to do one or all of three things. They will have to increase what they withhold by untold amounts, tax you more, and either print or borrow more money from China to pay the bill.

If they print the money the value of the dollar goes down and prices go up. Your cost of living will increase. If they borrow it, the debt goes up, and your taxes will have to go up to repay the debt. The burden on the young will be unbearable. The interest alone on the current debt will break you.

Now they want to pass health care reform. They plan to REQUIRE you to buy health insurance or pay a $1000.00 fine. If you buy it, it is estimated to cost you 10 to 12% of your income to start with. The problem is that you will end up in a government program much like medicare. You will have worse health care and most likley rationed care at that. The REASON they are trying to force you to buy it is they know you don't need it. They want your money to help them offset the cost of providing the care for the elderly who are on medicare.

What I am telling you is that they are going to come after you from so many directions that it will literally cripple you financially. If you think times are tough now, let this health care reform bill pass. It will ruin you financially and it will be used to control your very life because it will be used to control everything you eat, drink, buy, and even how you have to live.

Some of your elders are fighting to save you from this, but we need your voice and your help. Do not sleep through this class or you will pay dearly. Daydream at your peril. This from one fighter who would like to see you enjoy a future and freedom.
