Obamacare's Data Hub
By Douglas V. Gibbs
*****************
The
Affordable Care Act is so despicable, even the Republicans are
beginning to see the reality that it must be repealed, not replaced.
Barack Obama, and his minions, 
know that they are losing ground, and
are doing whatever they can to get support back for the federal health
care law, while targeting individuals, and handing out waivers to
allies, and delaying business
killing mandates against companies. Never mind that from a
constitutional perspective, regardless of what the ideology-influenced
Supreme Court Justices say (remember, those people are supposed to be
apolitical, but their rulings, and the opinions attached to those
rulings, are telling us otherwise), health insurance, and health care in
general, is not an authority granted to the federal government by the
United States Constitution in the first place.
As
time passes, the truth about the dangers that Obamacare poses become
more and more apparent. None of it surprises those that have opposed
the monstrosity from the beginning, be it rising health care costs,
rising insurance premiums, tyrannical mandates, and unworkable programs.
In fact, they have been illegally amending it just to try to make
some of the components work. It is so complex, the law is unworkable,
unenforceable, and too general. . . by design.
Ultimately,
the plan is for all hell to break loose, for the failure of the system
to be astronomical, and then Obama stepping in to save the day with
federally controlled socialized medicine (a.k.a. Single Payer).
When
the IRS and NSA scandals surfaced, Americans began to become more aware
of the dwindling liberties we are experiencing under the hidden iron
fist of the current administration (while blaming it on the previous
administration). As we wade through the turmoil of the Zimmerman Trial
aftermath, we are realizing how divisive this
nation is becoming, by design, under the tutelage of the race-baiting
manipulators of the Obama administration. We are discovering, with the
alphabet scandals, that our privacy does not belong to us anymore. This
government, under liberal control, is determined to know everything
about us, and use that information to control our every move. We are
aware, we think, of the intrusion of the federal government into our
lives. . . yet, the real danger, the real liberty killer, is within the
pages of the massive Affordable Care Act.
Obamacare's
big brother database, for those of us that have been on task since the
beginning, is of no surprise. The Obama administration hired 16,000
more IRS agents to enforce Obamacare, and we know how the IRS likes to
target anyone that opposes Obama. With
all of that additional personnel also comes a Data Hub that is a
massive comprehensive database of personal information being established
by the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to implement the
federally facilitated health insurance exchanges.
The
presence of the idea of the centralized Data Hub is making some
lawmakers nervous, and should be making you very nervous as well.
It
brings to mind the famous quote by Ronald Reagan that essentially goes,
"The most frightening words in the English language are, 'Hi, we're
from the government, and we're here to help.'"
The
federal government has already shown that they can't be trusted, and
yet they are now doing what they can to access and store our personal
information, all of it, in one location, under federal guardianship.
The potential for abuse with this Data Hub is enormous. The massive,
centralized database will include comprehensive personal information
such as income and financial data, family size, citizenship and
immigration status, incarceration status, social security numbers, and
private health information - though I wouldn't doubt your political
affiliation, and history, will be included, too. It will compile
dossiers based on information obtained from the IRS, the Department of
Homeland Security, the Department of Defense, the Veterans
Administration, the Office of Personnel Management, the Social Security
Administration, state Medicaid databases,
and for some reason the Peace Corps. The Data Hub will provide
web-based, one-stop shopping for prying into everyone's personal
affairs.
The beast of tyranny is a bureaucracy, and the method is Obamacare. . . in the name of the common good.
I wonder if folks like Wikileaks are licking their chops?
Have you ever heard the old saying, "Don't put all your eggs in one basket?"
The
federal government is asking us to not only allow all of our
information to be in one place, but to trust them with it. Forget
Wikileaks. What about the IRS scandal where conservative groups were
being purposely targeted? What about the NSA scandal where the federal
government is tapping into our lives without any warrants, as if you are
the enemy? The Obama administration is already trying to divide this
country, and separate their opposition from the rest of Americans, as if
any opposition against the Obama administration is some kind of
sedition against the nation. Will the voters that are dependent upon
the government, thus making them forever democrat voters, cry foul when
conservatives are denied health services? Or when the Data Hub is used
to hunt them down for daring to drink a soda larger than 16 ounces?
How easy, with this Data Hub, would it be for the government to hunt
you down because some doctor snitched that your child told him mommy and
daddy has guns? Who will dare oppose the government when the death
panel denies a life-saving procedure because the patient is considered
an enemy of the state?
Every
science fiction nightmare about a government rising up against the
people, and placing that people into technological bondage, is on the
horizon, and only a full repeal of Obamacare, and the defeat of
liberalism, will stop it.
In other words, a return to the Constitution is our only solution.
