No SIC needed although this legislation makes me sic (sic). Congersperson is an apt mispelling since some (most?) of them are like slime eels.

Greg Walden represents me in Washington, and I am proud to have voted for him. He is our only congress critter that I am proud of from my state. All the others are commie Rats, and for that I am ashamed of my state. I hope his hard work (actually reading a bill that he will vote on, the audacity) will help defeat this debacle with facts and common sense.

Greg, keep up the good fight, and kick a$$!

I here you. But on the bright side, I think Wu speaks Klingon, and is very knowledgeable about Star Trek. /s

And that's what they put up front.

Just what is buried in the back half of the bill that they DON'T want everyone to see?

The bill’s language is just the tip of the iceberg. Those 1,000 pages of bill will translate into tens of thousands of pages of new government regulations.

What the hell does this even have to do with health care?

It means that the physicians cannot own or invest in their hospitals. There are several physician owned hospitals here in Houston. Doesnt’ really have anything to do with health care.

They are writing legislation to KILL people! This is SICK!!!!!!!!!!!!

My mother always told me that they would start killing off the old people and I mocked her. She's mocking me now.

Don't know if you've seen this or not yet...

The assault against seniors began with the stimulus package in February. Slipped into the bill was substantial funding for comparative effectiveness research, which is generally code for limiting care based on the patient’s age. Economists are familiar with the formula, where the cost of a treatment is divided by the number of years (called QALYs, or quality-adjusted life years) that the patient is likely to benefit. In Britain, the formula leads to denying treatments for older patients who have fewer years to benefit from care than younger patients.

When comparative effectiveness research appeared in the stimulus bill, Rep. Charles Boustany Jr., (R., La.) a heart surgeon, warned that it would lead to “denying seniors and the disabled lifesaving care.” He and Sen. Jon Kyl (R., Ariz.) proposed amendments to no avail that would have barred the federal government from using the research to eliminate treatments for the elderly or deny care based on age.

In a letter this week to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, White House budget chief Peter Orszag urged Congress to delegate its authority over Medicare to a newly created body within the executive branch. This measure is designed to circumvent the democratic process and avoid accountability to the public for cuts in benefits.

Obama was bragging on this at today's town hall in OH. To him, killing off the old people is one of the plan's major selling points!
