Changing Government at the Local Level ~ Honest Politicians Running for Office

HELLO WISCONSIN

Send Dr. Tim to Washington
NERENZE
2nd District U.S. House of Representatives

My name is Tim Nerenz, and I want to be your Congressman.

I don’t want to be your mommy. I don’t want to be your daddy. And I don’t want to be your doctor, banker, car salesman, landlord, insurance agent, teacher, pastor, union steward, or weatherman.

Whether you are a Democrat, Republican, Libertarian, Independent, or only vote on American Idol, I want to represent you in Congress. Represent, not rule. Whether you are senior citizen or a senior at UW, you should not ask the government for permission to live your life.

Because the overwhelming majority of us just want one thing from our government – to leave us alone.

Quit Talking Stupid

Are you willing to pay $24,762 every year so that everyone gets health care? Then let’s quit talking stupid.

There are 105 million people who work in the private sector - that is where all the money comes from. We spend $2.6 trillion each year on health care, so do the math: that’s $24,762 each if everybody pays their fair share.

If we include public sector workers, the share drops to just under $20,000. I know we pay their salaries, so it doesn’t change anything, but it would be fun to see university professors and Congressmen put their own money where their mouth is for once.

It is nonsense to keep talking about coverage, access, and rights as if health care were free air. Rosa Parks sought access to a seat in the front of the bus; she did not demand that the guy in seat 12A pay for it, and she did not call him a racist for thinking they should each buy their own.

No, Ms. Parks did not talk stupid, like our leaders do. How can we possibly expand coverage to 47 million more people without adding a single doctor, and not have longer waits for appointments? That is talking stupid.

How can we possibly cover all those additional people without increasing taxes or increasing the deficit? That is talking stupid.
