Ted Kennedy’s ‘TeddyCare’: you have to buy the quantity of heath insurance that government dictates
Red Pills ^ | 6/17/09

Posted on 06/16/2009 11:40:17 PM PDT by FromLori

At long last, Teddy Kennedy has partially revealed the health care system he wants to foist on the whole country — and it isn’t p

At the center of the plan is what’s called a “universal mandate.” What this means is that you — and virtually everyone in the country — will have to buy as much health insurance as the government demands, and that insurance plan will actually have to be approved by the government. {I think Ted has finally lost it. Go away, die, and leave us in peace, Ted.}

If you work for a small business, the business will buy the insurance on your behalf. But you may be saddled with an enormous part of the cost. And, if the employer’s contribution is too large, you will be fired.

If you fail to buy TeddyCare, as the government orders you to do, the IRS will fine you, garnish your wages, put a lien on your house, and, ultimately, put you in prison.

How much will you have to spend on your TeddyCare insurance? Teddy’s not saying.

The portion of your paycheck that will have to be forked over to Teddy’s latest social experiment will be revealed ONLY AFTER THE MASSIVE HEALTH CARE BILL IS SIGNED INTO LAW.

This should set off alarm bells in your brain, because, for instance, the average family policy is currently $12,700. “So,” proclaims Teddy, “everyone’s going to get a subsidy to pay for this.” There’s going to be a “chicken in every pot,” and no one’s going to have to pay for it.

Yeah, right. If you’re a welfare mother, the government will pay for your TeddyCare, and it would pay for it — the first time — by taxing employer-provided health benefits of working Americans.

Government, too often, is a group of people telling me to obey their rules unless I want them to send armed men to force me to obey their rules.

When he was campaigning (before the election, not the eternal post-election campaign) didn’t Obama promise everyone would have the same health plan as the Senate and Congress?

Screw the pic ... look at this ...

" Currently, as a result of the stimulus bill and a whole lot of other factors, the government is rapidly moving in the direction of computerizing all of your most confidential medical records and putting them into a federal database.

So remember when your son was asked by his pediatrician about your gun collection? That would be in the federal database.

Or remember when your wife told her gynecologist that she had regularly smoke marijuana ten years ago — thereby potentially barring both her and you from ever owning a gun again? That would be in the database.

Or if a military veteran complains to his psychiatrist that he’s had emotional stress since coming back to the States, that would be in the database.

Or remember when gramps was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s, thereby making him a “mental defective” who would have to relinquish his life-long gun collection? That’s in there too."

Thanks for the reply, but no thanks.

I still recall the Chappy neck brace picture as a youngster, and more.

When the colloquium of “Where were you when JFK died” comes up, I’m at a loss due to the subsequent actions of the family.

Fat chance. The Kennedys are the gift that keeps on giving. We'll never be rid of them or their horrendous politics.

Oh no, I wish Teddy many more years of life. When he passes, he'll be used as a martyr for the cause - "Pass Universal Health Care in the memory of Teddy! He fought so long and hard for it! It's the least we can do for his memory!"
