" Just the other day I was. Talking about socialized medicine in the -- represents to the United States. With Ronald Wilson Reagan. President Reagan what do you make of the president's rush to reform health care in the US."

" One of the traditional methods and imposing stages -- socialism and people. It's me and my way of medicine but most people would agree there needs to be some type of reform you see this the American people. If you put it to them about socialized medicine gave them a chance to choose without hesitating only vote against. In that vote against it because perhaps they smelled something fishy it's very easy to disguise a medical program as a humanitarian project. Most people are a little reluctant to oppose anything that suggests medical care for people who possibly can't afford it."

" President Reagan it seems more and more people are against this health care reform so called a town hall meetings are full of passion from the citizens but the elected officials. Just don't seem to get it."

" The advocates of this bill when you try to oppose it challenge you want an emotional basis they say what would you do Troy police corporal people out to -- with no medical attention. That's ridiculous and of course no one is advocated so what do you think they're really true I think we could be excused for believing that this was simply. An excuse to bring about what they wanted all the time. Socialized medicine. Most people know there are problems but the polls consistently show the majority of Americans are happy with their -- Current health care the relationship between patient and doctor in this country is something to be indeed any. The privacy need care that is given to a person the right to choose a doctor at the right to go from one doctor the other. But Obama's is all that will remain the same doctor would be reluctant to say yes well like you I'm only a patient. So I can say it in his behalf. The doctor begins to -- it's like telling a lie and one leads to another. First you decide that the doctor can have so many patients they're equally divided among the various doctors by the government. But and the doctors are equally divided geographically so -- doctor decides he wants to practice in one town. And the government has to -- and -- kept -- in that town they already have enough doctors you have to go someplace else and from here it's only a short step to dictating. Where he will go. All of us can see what happens once you establish the precedent that the government can determine a man's working place and is working methods of determining his employment. From here it's a short step to all the rest of socialism. To determining his pain and pretty soon. Your son won't decide when he's in school where he will go or what he will do for a living he will wait for the government to tell inquiry will go to work. And what he would do we ms. -- President Reagan before we end this interview do you have a message from my listeners. The key issue is we do not want socialized medicine governments don't text to get the money they need governments will always. Find a need for the money they get. And that huge demand and the continuation of our traditional free enterprise system the only way we can do. Is -- right -- our congressman even if we believe that he's on our side to begin with right to strengthen his hand. Give him the ability to stand before his colleagues in congress and say I have heard from my constituents and this is what they want. Right those letters now call your friends and tell them direct -- you don't need this program I promise you will pass just as surely as the sun will come off tomorrow. And behind it will come other federal programs that will invade every area of freedom as we have known in this country until. One day we will wait to find. That we have socialist -- you don't do this one of these days you and I are going to spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children. What it once was like in America."

" And okay."

" These are the good old days."

Arizona Loses the First Round

Arizona's tough new immigration law was just hours away from taking effect when a federal judge issued an injunction today blocking key portions of the law from being enforced. Among the provisions U.S. District Judge Susan Bolton put on hold are the "reasonable suspicion" section that would allow police to arrest and detain suspected illegal immigrants without a warrant and a provision making it illegal for undocumented day laborers to solicit or perform work. Bolton also stayed part of the Arizona law requiring immigrants to carry federal immigration documents. DO you think illegals should be required to carry identification?
