The enumeration in the constitution of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people

Health care is an inalienable right of modern man. If you have to pay for it as an individual it is no longer a right.

We are not only in violation of the basic tenets of the Declaration of Independence but we find ourselves in violation of Constitutional Amendments, included specifically in the Bill of Rights of the Constitution, Constitutional Amendments number 9 and number 13.

These amendments were added because of the previous violations of the Declaration of Independence and give proof to the argument that universal health care for all is an inalienable right of citizens in the U.S..

We have developed an industry, in our country that takes people’s property, their futures, their dignity, their dreams and even their lives in unprecedented numbers. We call this industry our health care system.

We hold these truths to be self evident that the continuing violation of our Declaration of Independence and the Constitution of the United States and its Amendments is prolonging the suffering of and the premature deaths of untold millions of Americans.

UNITED STATES NATIONAL HEALTH INSURANCE ACT (HR 676)

This bill was developed by the best minds in medicine and economics around the world.

Universal Health Care for all Americans is now in Congress. Every citizen, and every organization needs to make their candidates accountable for voting this bill into law. There is no middle ground on this issue. If this was 1860 you would be voting for candidates that are either for the continuation of slavery or for abolishing it. That is the magnitude of this issue.

Now is the time to come to the aid of your nation. We must all vote in this election.

“The sacred rights of mankind are not to be rummaged for, among old parchments, or musty records. They are written with a sunbeam in the whole volume of human nature, by the hand of the divinity itself: and can never be erased or obscured by mortal power.” – Alexander Hamilton 1775
