“when will it end? I am saddened by the arguments from the left that fail to recognize that there are more people in America that want to have choices. They do not want just the offering of a government program one size fits all. Not everyone thinks that the government is the answer to everything. So I am proud to support bills that allow the market to provide opportunities and choices, and that is what tonight is about. I am wondering sitting here listening to the debate what some of our Founding Fathers would think of today's debate. Think about the people that started this country that left their countries to set sail on a venture unknown to come to a new land for what? Freedom. Trying to escape the government powers that were controlling their lives. And now 200 or 300 years later from those first people that landed on our shores, our debate is how far government is going to control their health and their lives. Not everybody wants bureaucrats running their health care. So I am proud to stand in favor of the HSAs. Mr. Speaker, in today's world us baby boomers, and, yes, I am on the tail-end, there are a few others that are nearing their entry into Medicare, but we are facing a crisis too. Our parents need help in today's world.…”
