Little gems from the Health Care Bill

This is a frightening piece of legislation. If this passes the U.S. officially enters into an "Orwellian" state. If I voiced my feelings on this, I'd get banned from this site. So I'll just say continue to call, e-mail, contact your Reps, and Senators constantly and tell them to vote against this bill.

Thank you for assembling this. What if I don’t want a National Health ID card?

Good Lord. This is unbelievable.



To: CMS

Do you have a source and link for this?



To: CMS

And this is why Obama, Pelosi, Waxman, et al wanted to rush Obamacare through congress before anybody had a chance to read it. Contact your congressman and your two senators today!

1) leave the US

2) run for your life

Looks like I’ll be paying for healthcare twice, like I paid for education twice. Once for the government mandated and useless version (Public Schools, Obama DeathCare(TM)) and once in the Free Market for what works. They can demand that I pay for their care. It’s a tax. They can’t stop me from spending my own money after that in a private transaction with an individual doctor.



To: CMS

Yet they refuse to let the GOP call it Government Healthcare?

Straight out of the 1000 plus page House Health Care plan. I read the entire thing and this is a very good synopsis. However, there will be ove 500 NEW bureaucracies created to implement this plan. Now, will all those new government employees be exempt from the plan they are to foist on the rest of us??? You betcha!!

Obama Jokes

Wasn't there also a section that this bill is exempt from judicial review, so that the courts theoretically CANNOT challenge unconstitutional law? ObamaCare Jokes

To: tbw2

Isn’t there a provision restricting going out of state for seeing a primary care or specialist physician or hospital?
