Personlig frihed….

USA er et fantastisk land. Mulighedernes land. Land of the free, som de siger over there. Og forleden havde de frihed til at vælge repræsentanter til Kongressen. En af dem der blev valgt er Michele Bachmann. Hvis du ikke kender hende, så prøv at google hende. Hun er mildest talt fascinerende. Men der er især 2 punkter der er mere fascinerende end de andre, selv om hun gør sit bedste for at være mere skinger i retorikken end Mette Frederiksen.

Hun er stor fortaler for Sundhedsfrihed. Smag på ordet. Sundhedsfrihed, det lyder da positivt. Næsten lige så positivt som Freedom Fries. Michele mener at den nye amerikanske sundhedsreform er et indgreb i den personlige frihed, så hun går kraftigt ind for Sundhedsfrihed. Det lyder positivt, men det der reelt er tale om er frihed til at være syg. Man skal, ifølge Michele, selv betale sine forsikringer, oftest via arbejdet. Så hendes sundhedsfrihed er friheden til at blæse på de uheldige der ikke har arbejde, eller ikke har råd til en forsikring. Det er da afgjort frihed, men det positive er lidt svært at få øje på. Men nu vi er ved det : Hvordan er det lige gået herhjemme? Er det blevet mere udbredt med sundhedsforsikringer, fordi befolkningen i stigende grad er utrygge ved det offentlige? Kan folk ikke se paralleller til den amerikanske debat, hvor pengene bestemmer om du kan blive rask?

Den andet ting der er fascinerende er hendes ide om at advarslerne om klimaændringer er et svindelnummer. Verdens bedste svindelnummer, må man sige. Selv naturen er med i dette svindelnummer….Nogen folk vil så gerne have lov til at pisse på de kommende generationer så længe de selv sparer en smule penge. Michele ville gøre sig godt i regeringen herhjemme.

The United States is a fantastic place. Land of possibilities. Land of the free, as they say. And the other day they had the freedom to choose representatives to the senate. One of the elected is Michele Bachmann. If you are not familiar with this lady, please google her, she is quite fascinating. But 2 opinions in particular makes her more fascinating than the rest, even though she is a bit more hysterical in her rhetorics than Mette Frederiksen (danish politician known for screaming her viewpoints in a high-pitched voice).

Michele is quite fervent in her love for HealthFreedom. Just taste the word. Healthfreedom, that is positive. Just like Freedom fries. Michele believes that the new ‘Obamacare’ is an attack on the personal freedom, so she is quite a bit more in favour of Healthfreedom. It sounds nice, but in reality it is the freedom to get sick and unable to afford any cure. According to Michele, you have to get your own insurances, often gaining them through your job. So her Healthfreedom is the freedom to avoid giving a damn about those unlucky without jobs, or unable to afford an insurance. It is definetly freedom, but not in any positive way.

The second fascinating idea she has, is the idea that all the warnings about human-made/caused climate changes is a hoax. World’s greatest hoax, if it is so. Even nature is in on it….Some people just wants to piss on the future generations so badly, as long as they save a little bit of money themselves. Michele would be welcomed in the danish government, she thinks like they do.
