&lt;br /&gt;
And now a word, in uncouth rhyme&lt;br /&gt;
Of what shall be in future time&lt;br /&gt;
Then upside down the world shall be&lt;br /&gt;
And gold found at the root of tree&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
All England&#39;s sons that plough the land&lt;br /&gt;
Shall oft be seen with Book in hand&lt;br /&gt;
Great houses stand in far flung vale&lt;br /&gt;
All covered o&#39;er with snow and hail&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A carriage without horse will go&lt;br /&gt;
Disaster fill the world with woe.&lt;br /&gt;
In London, Primrose Hill shall be&lt;br /&gt;
In centre hold a Bishop&#39;s See&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Around the world men&#39;s thoughts will fly&lt;br /&gt;
Quick as the twinkling of an eye.&lt;br /&gt;
And water shall great wonders do&lt;br /&gt;
How strange. And yet it shall come true.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Through towering hills proud men shall ride&lt;br /&gt;
No horse or ass move by his side.&lt;br /&gt;
Beneath the water, men shall walk&lt;br /&gt;
Shall ride, shall sleep, shall even talk.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And in the air men shall be seen&lt;br /&gt;
In white and black and even green&lt;br /&gt;
A great man then, shall come and go&lt;br /&gt;
For prophecy declares it so.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In water, iron, then shall float&lt;br /&gt;
As easy as a wooden boat&lt;br /&gt;
Gold shall be seen in stream and stone&lt;br /&gt;
In land that is yet unknown.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And England shall admit a Jew&lt;br /&gt;
You think this strange, but it is true&lt;br /&gt;
The Jew that once was held in scorn&lt;br /&gt;
Shall of a Christian then be born.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A house of glass shall come to pass&lt;br /&gt;
In England. But Alas, alas&lt;br /&gt;
A war will follow with the work&lt;br /&gt;
Where dwells the Pagan and the Turk&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
These states will lock in fiercest strife&lt;br /&gt;
And seek to take each others life.&lt;br /&gt;
When North shall thus divide the south&lt;br /&gt;
And Eagle build in Lions mouth&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then tax and blood and cruel war&lt;br /&gt;
Shall come to every humble door.&lt;br /&gt;
Three times shall lovely sunny France&lt;br /&gt;
Be led to play a bloody dance&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Before the people shall be free&lt;br /&gt;
Three tyrant rulers shall she see.&lt;br /&gt;
Three rulers in succession be&lt;br /&gt;
Each springs from different dynasty.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then when the fiercest strife is done&lt;br /&gt;
England and France shall be as one.&lt;br /&gt;
The British olive shall next then twine&lt;br /&gt;
In marriage with a German vine.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Men walk beneath and over streams&lt;br /&gt;
Fulfilled shall be their wondrous dreams.&lt;br /&gt;
For in those wondrous far off days&lt;br /&gt;
The women shall adopt a craze&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To dress like men, and trousers wear&lt;br /&gt;
And to cut off their locks of hair&lt;br /&gt;
They&#39;ll ride astride with brazen brow&lt;br /&gt;
As witches do on broomsticks now.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And roaring monsters with man atop&lt;br /&gt;
Does seem to eat the verdant crop&lt;br /&gt;
And men shall fly as birds do now&lt;br /&gt;
And give away the horse and plough.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There&#39;ll be a sign for all to see&lt;br /&gt;
Be sure that it will certain be.&lt;br /&gt;
Then love shall die and marriage cease&lt;br /&gt;
And nations wane as babes decrease&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And wives shall fondle cats and dogs&lt;br /&gt;
And men live much the same as hogs.&lt;br /&gt;
In nineteen hundred and twenty six&lt;br /&gt;
Build houses light of straw and sticks.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For then shall mighty wars be planned&lt;br /&gt;
And fire and sword shall sweep the land.&lt;br /&gt;
When pictures seem alive with movements free&lt;br /&gt;
When boats like fishes swim beneath the sea,&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When men like birds shall scour the sky&lt;br /&gt;
Then half the world, deep drenched in blood shall die.&lt;br /&gt;
For those who live the century through&lt;br /&gt;
In fear and trembling this shall do.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Flee to the mountains and the dens&lt;br /&gt;
To bog and forest and wild fens.&lt;br /&gt;
For storms will rage and oceans roar&lt;br /&gt;
When Gabriel stands on sea and shore&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And as he blows his wondrous horn&lt;br /&gt;
Old worlds die and new be born.&lt;br /&gt;
A fiery dragon will cross the sky&lt;br /&gt;
Six times before this earth shall die&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Mankind will tremble and frightened be&lt;br /&gt;
for the sixth heralds in this prophecy.&lt;br /&gt;
For seven days and seven nights&lt;br /&gt;
Man will watch this awesome sight.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The tides will rise beyond their ken&lt;br /&gt;
To bite away the shores and then&lt;br /&gt;
The mountains will begin to roar&lt;br /&gt;
And earthquakes split the plain to shore.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And flooding waters, rushing in&lt;br /&gt;
Will flood the lands with such a din&lt;br /&gt;
That mankind cowers in muddy fen&lt;br /&gt;
And snarls about his fellow men.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He bares his teeth and fights and kills&lt;br /&gt;
And secrets food in secret hills&lt;br /&gt;
And ugly in his fear, he lies&lt;br /&gt;
To kill marauders, thieves and spies.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Man flees in terror from the floods&lt;br /&gt;
And kills, and rapes and lies in blood&lt;br /&gt;
And spilling blood by man kinds hands&lt;br /&gt;
Will stain and bitter many lands&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And when the dragon&#39;s tail is gone,&lt;br /&gt;
Man forgets, and smiles, and carries on&lt;br /&gt;
To apply himself - too late, too late&lt;br /&gt;
For mankind has earned deserved fate.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
His masked smile - his false grandeur,&lt;br /&gt;
Will serve the Gods their anger stir.&lt;br /&gt;
And they will send the Dragon back&lt;br /&gt;
To light the sky - his tail will crack&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Upon the earth and rend the earth&lt;br /&gt;
And man shall flee, King, Lord, and serf.&lt;br /&gt;
But slowly they are routed out&lt;br /&gt;
To seek diminishing water spout&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And men will die of thirst before&lt;br /&gt;
The oceans rise to mount the shore.&lt;br /&gt;
And lands will crack and rend anew&lt;br /&gt;
You think it strange. It will come true.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And in some far off distant land&lt;br /&gt;
Some men - oh such a tiny band.&lt;br /&gt;
Will have to leave their solid mount&lt;br /&gt;
And span the earth, those few to count,&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Who survives this (unreadable) and then&lt;br /&gt;
Begin the human race again.&lt;br /&gt;
But not on land already there&lt;br /&gt;
But on ocean beds, stark, dry and bare&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Not every soul on Earth will die&lt;br /&gt;
As the Dragons tail goes sweeping by.&lt;br /&gt;
Not every land on earth will sink&lt;br /&gt;
But these will wallow in stench and stink&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Of rotting bodies of beast and man&lt;br /&gt;
Of vegetation crisped on land.&lt;br /&gt;
But the land that rises from the sea&lt;br /&gt;
Will be dry and clean and soft and free&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Of mankinds dirt and therefore be&lt;br /&gt;
The source of man&#39;s new dynasty.&lt;br /&gt;
And those that live will ever fear&lt;br /&gt;
The dragons tail for many year&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But time erases memory&lt;br /&gt;
You think it strange. But it will be.&lt;br /&gt;
And before the race is built anew&lt;br /&gt;
A silver serpent comes to view&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And spew out men of like unknown&lt;br /&gt;
To mingle with the earth now grown.&lt;br /&gt;
Cold from its heat and these men can&lt;br /&gt;
Enlighten the minds of future man.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To intermingle and show them how&lt;br /&gt;
To live and love and thus endow&lt;br /&gt;
The children with the second sight.&lt;br /&gt;
A natural thing so that they might&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Grow graceful, humble and when they do&lt;br /&gt;
The Golden Age will start anew.&lt;br /&gt;
The dragon&#39;s tail is but a sign&lt;br /&gt;
For mankind&#39;s fall and man&#39;s decline.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And before this prophecy is done&lt;br /&gt;
I shall be burned at the stake, at one&lt;br /&gt;
My body singed and my soul set free&lt;br /&gt;
You think I utter blasphemy&lt;br /&gt;
You&#39;re wrong. These things have come to me&lt;br /&gt;
This prophecy will come to be.</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://chasertiponi.blogspot.com/feeds/2831462245343955376/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://chasertiponi.blogspot.com/2010/10/mother-shipton-prophecy.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7504438099869492661/posts/default/2831462245343955376'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7504438099869492661/posts/default/2831462245343955376'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://chasertiponi.blogspot.com/2010/10/mother-shipton-prophecy.html' title='THE MOTHER SHIPTON PROPHECY'/><author><name>JustJeff!!!</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09988157204069464115</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7504438099869492661.post-8219772594462233211</id><published>2010-04-29T16:42:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2010-04-29T16:42:36.551-07:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>Wow!

Suspect, a former UW professor, has pleaded not guilty&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

Paperwork is filled out after a Ford Explorer crashed into Dick&#39;s Drive-In in Lake City. Colin John Sandwith, 73, has been charged with DUI and pleaded not guilty in Seattle Municipal Court.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A man who police say crashed into the Lake City Dick&#39;s Drive-In, forcing the restaurant to close for more than a week while workers repair the building, has been charged with DUI.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That man, Colin John Sandwith, has pleaded not guilty.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Staff of Dick&#39;s Drive-Ins announced Tuesday they hope to reopen the restaurant, at 12325 30th Ave. N.E., on April 5.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Police say on March 25 about 9:20 p.m., Sandwith crashed his dark blue SUV into the front of the restaurant, damaging the metal counter, window and front tiled wall.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He got out and said he hit the accelerator instead of the brake, according to investigators.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sandwith, 73, is affiliated with the University of Washington and the applied physics lab. He retired in January 2008 after 41 years at the university and was elected by colleagues to the rank of research associate professor emeritus.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He did not return a call or e-mail for comment Tuesday.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A witness told police he was standing in line when he turned and saw the vehicle driving toward him. The man jumped out of the way, injuring his knee. A Seattle Fire Department crew treated him at the scene, but the man was not taken to a hospital.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
No other injuries were reported.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sandwith, who was not injured in the crash, was taken to the North Precinct, where he was processed for DUI and released.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Court records show he has no criminal record in Washington and only a short ticket history: A speeding deferment in 2007 and a Snohomish County traffic ticket last year.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
His DUI pretrial hearing is scheduled for May 3.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A sign in the Dick&#39;s parking lot says the restaurant is closed temporarily and apologizes for the inconvenience. All but one window in the front and one left-side window were covered with plywood Tuesday.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dick&#39;s staff hasn&#39;t estimated the damages, and general manager Ken Frazier did not return a message for comment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The restaurant&#39;s standpipe - basically a vent in the plumbing that goes up through the roof and allows sewer gases to escape to the atmosphere -- is inside the structure at the front of the building, according to Seattle Public Utilities.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If the standpipe was disturbed or broken, the public health department would not let the restaurant reopen until it&#39;s repaired and inspected. A public health inspector has gone to the restaurant, but the standpipe is not an issue for the heath department, spokeswoman Hilary Karasz said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&quot;Our plumbing folks will be going out there on a courtesy call to make sure a back flow device is installed on the soda machine, and the food inspector will also be stopping by, but no permits are being required and no plan review,&quot; she said. &quot;So, as soon as the repairs are done they&#39;ll re-open and we&#39;ll be dropping by to make sure everything is as it should be. We&#39;re confident that it will.&quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The closure of more than a week is at least the second for the Lake City location. The first came after a fire started at the French fry cooker.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In a memory book sold for the restaurant&#39;s 50th anniversary, then store manager Jerry Frampton wrote the Lake City location was shut down for about two weeks, and staff members &quot;were busy as soon as we reopened.&quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The first Dick&#39;s opened in 1954 at 111 N.E. 45th Street. The addition of the Lake City location was announced April 13, 1963.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
By JOEL CONNELLY&lt;br /&gt;
SEATTLEPI.COM STAFF&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the 1965 Easter season, young civil rights leader John Lewis was recovering from a skull fractured by the nightstick of an Alabama State (Storm) Trooper in the march that prompted the Voting Rights Act.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
America has come a long ways since the clubbing of peaceful protesters at the Edmund Pettus Bridge in Selma, Alabama.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But Rep. John Lewis, D-Georgia, again heard racial epithets -- yes, the &quot;n&quot; word -- as he walked across the street, through jeering protesters, to the U.S. Capitol to vote last weekend.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rep. Andre Carson, D-Indiana, heard the same derision. Rep. Emanuel Cleaver, D-Mo., was spat upon. A chorus of homophobic epithets greeted Rep. Barney Frank, D-Mass. Rep. Ciro Rodriguez, D-Texas, heard himself called a &quot;wetback.&quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&quot;Politics ain&#39;t beanbag,&quot; Finley Peter Dunne wrote, creating a famous aphorism of American politics. It never was a profession for the faint of heart. Even disciples of genteel courtesy, e.g. George H.W. Bush, have gone into the gutter to win.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Still, the tea baggers&#39; display on Capitol Hill as health care reform passed the House, reached the point of hateful, wretched excess.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The aftermath hasn&#39;t been any better. A propane gas line at the Virginia home of Rep. Tom Perriello&#39;s brother was cut Tuesday after a self-proclaimed &quot;tea party&quot; activist mistakenly posted his home as the congressman&#39;s address. Opponents were urged to &quot;drop by&quot; and voice their feelings.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rep. Bart Stupak, D-Mich., who worked out a compromise on abortion language with the White House, has shared messages that have Mrs. Stupak letting their home phone ring without answer. A sample: &quot;You&#39;re dead. We know where you live. We&#39;ll get you.&quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unceasing combat did not used to be the American way. Our politicians governed with the hand dealt to them by the voters.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ronald Reagan and Tip O&#39;Neill could fight over tax cuts, but swap stories when the debate stopped. Our state&#39;s Tom Foley and Illinois Rep. Henry Hyde delivered passionate opposing speeches to close debate on aid to Nicaragua&#39;s Contra rebels. The two big Irishmen would then stride off the House floor arm-in-arm.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Not last weekend. House Republicans served as cheerleaders on the floor when demonstrators shouted from the balcony. They egged on the tea baggers from a U.S. Capitol balcony.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
House Minority Leader John Boehner told National Review online that Ohio colleague Rep. Steve Driehaus would be a &quot;dead man&quot; if he voted for health reform. Ex-Gov. Sarah Palin urged reform opponents to &quot;reload&quot; and released a map showing targeted Democrats&#39; district in crosshairs.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Republicans&#39; House whip, Rep. Eric Cantor, denounced threats on Thursday. Cantor, a conservative, said that he has been &quot;directly threatened&quot; and that a bullet was shot through the window of his Richmond, Va., campaign office this week.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But Cantor said he has chosen not to release threatening e-mails, and claimed that by doing so Democrats are &quot;fanning flames&quot; to reap political reward. He appeared to take a shot at Stupak, saying: &quot;It is reckless to use these incidents as media vehicles for political gain.&quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is, however, hard to conceal a window shattered by a projectile . . .or ignore the small of gas from a severed fuel line . . .or laugh off a call for the hanging of Sen. Patty Murray . . . or be sanguine about an anonymous phone threat . . . or believe in comity when a House colleague shouts &quot;baby killer.&quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Thankfully, we have no crazies like Reps. Randy &quot;Baby Killer&quot; Neugebauer and Michelle Bachmann in Washington&#39;s congressional delegation. We even see cooperation across the aisle, Democrat Murray and Rep. Dave Reichert, R-Wash., on expanding the Alpine Lakes Wilderness.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But there&#39;s poison in the atmosphere. Thursday brought one small sign of responsible folk trying to cleanse the air.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Christian religious leaders from across the country issued a &quot;Covenant for Civility.&quot; Its 114 signers range from leaders of the National Association of Evangelicals to liberal Episcopal Bishops Greg Rickel in Seattle and Jeff Lee in Chicago (former rector at St. Thomas Church in Medina). Signers include Nixon tough guy Charles Colson, and Dr. James Gertmenian of Seattle&#39;s Plymouth Congregational Church.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&quot;We pledge that when we disagree, we will do so respectfully, without falsely impugning the other&#39;s motives, attacking the other&#39;s character, or questioning the other&#39;s faith,&quot; the religious leaders said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
They concluded: &quot;We pledge to God and to each other that we will lead by example in a country where civil discourse seems to have broken down.&quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It&#39;s a pledge that should be taken to the House floor.</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://chasertiponi.blogspot.com/feeds/942286718429113557/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://chasertiponi.blogspot.com/2010/03/civil-unrest-is-dangerous-thing.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7504438099869492661/posts/default/942286718429113557'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7504438099869492661/posts/default/942286718429113557'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://chasertiponi.blogspot.com/2010/03/civil-unrest-is-dangerous-thing.html' title='Civil Unrest is a Dangerous thing!!!'/><author><name>JustJeff!!!</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09988157204069464115</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7504438099869492661.post-4351079222168387356</id><published>2010-03-25T03:53:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-03-25T03:53:47.507-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Health care REFORM?</title><content type='html'>.Great, Health care Reform...&lt;br /&gt;
Let&#39;s see, now they will force me to by health insurance. There&#39;s just one problem. The incredible Shortage of Primary care Physicians. And w/ no end in site. See it works like this. If I&#39;m paying the astronomical cost of getting educated to be a Doctor, it stands to reason that I wanna MAKE MONEY when I complete said education.&lt;br /&gt;
I want to be a cancer specialist or something that pay&#39;s, and pay&#39;s well!!&lt;br /&gt;
This in my opinion Kicks the Idea of preventive Health care Right to the curb. Who is gonna take the time to get a check-up if they have to stand in line for 2 weeks due to the lack of doctors.&lt;br /&gt;
Further more how is EVERYONE in this country going to pay for said health insurance. For those of you who have been under a rock the last 2 years, Unemployment is OUT OF CONTROL. Reality must sink in that only the Roughly 70% of people who can find work will be able to pay. This means that the other Roughly 30% of the cost will have to be passed on to the 70% of those already paying there fair share.&lt;br /&gt;
Reform? How exactly will that Bullshit Reform anything? I&#39;d be better off just paying out the ass like I have been when I need to go to the Doctor. (That&#39;s not very often for me). In an accident, Wich most likely would happen on the freeway or at work, There are other Insurances (we already are forced to pay) that would cover those things.&lt;br /&gt;
If I had the choice, I&#39;ll stay out of that system. But once again the Government Of The United States of America has chosen to completely ignore My constitutional Rights as a citizen of this Country. And removed yet another one of My rights to decide whats best for me.&lt;br /&gt;
In conclusion, if the FED wants to step up and help. Maybe they should consider getting a grip on immigration. Either close the borders or make these people citizens so they can contribute to society just like rest of us. I know and understand that illegals need medical as well. But our currant system forces those people to fly under the radar.
