What’s wrong with it?
1. Nothing in the Constitution that Authorizes it.
any reason after that is just opinion.
Everything.
It Sucks?
How is Congress, or other gov’t employees, treated differently?
Ummm... everything.
The “efficiency” argument is specious. When coupled with the ever-elastic, un-enumerated Commerce Clause, the next area of federal takeover could be food. We could save so much money if every neighborhood had its own government kitchen and eating hall. We could purchase food in bulk and we could cut back on food stamps. It is just unfair that some people had ‘Cadillac’ eating while others are left to pick from garbage cans.
After we use the Commerce Clause to impose that, we’ll move to saving money by forcing everyone into highrise efficiency government housing. After all, everyone needs a place to sleep. The dormitories are so much more energy efficient than single-family dwellings. And is so unfair that some people get to enjoy ‘Cadillac’ housing while others are left to sleep in government-funded homeless shelters.
We we all need clothing. Do we really need all this variety? I don’t think so! We could save so much money if government experts would design just 5 differnent types of clothing: manual worker uniform, health care worker uniform, office worker uniform, enforcement worker uniform. We only need the leisure time outfit in two sizes with elastic stretch pants in two exciting colors. We could save more by just using modified military clothing.
Doesn’t the left have a wonderful Utopia in store for us?
So energy efficient?
BTW, didn’t that article on thorium reactors say we had enough thorium to last us at present levels for 1000 years or so? And we are worried about running out of energy? What kind of morons do we have making policy now? Gaia worshipers?
Judge Kithil of Marble Falls, TX - HB3200 highlighted pages most egregious.
Please read this .. especially the reference to pages 58 & 59
JUDGE KITHIL wrote:
“I have reviewed selected sections of the bill, and find
it unbelievable that our Congress, led by Speaker Nancy Pelosi, could come up with a bill loaded with so many wrong-headed elements.”
“Both Republicans and Democrats are equally responsible
for the financial mess of both Social Security and Medicare programs.”
“I am opposed to HB 3200 for a number of reasons.
To start with, it is estimated that a federal bureaucracy of more than 150,000 new employees will be required to administer HB3200. That is an unacceptable expansion of a government that is already too intrusive in our lives. If we are going to hire 150,000 new employees, let’s put them to work protecting our borders, fighting the massive drug problem and putting more law enforcement/firefighters out there.”
JUDGE KITHIL continued: “Other problems I have with this bill include:
** Page 50/section 152: The bill will provide insurance to all non-U.S. residents, even if they are here illegally.
** Page 58 and 59: The government will have real-time access to an individual’s bank account and will have the authority to make electronic fund transfers from those accounts.
** Page 65/section 164: The plan will be subsidized (by
the government) for all union members, union retirees and for community organizations (such as the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now - ACORN).
** Page 203/line 14-15: The tax imposed under this
section will not be treated as a tax. (How could anybody in their right mind come up with that?)
** Page 241 and 253: Doctors will all be paid the same
regardless of specialty, and the government will set all doctors’ fees.
** Page 272. section 1145: Cancer hospital will ration
care according to the patient’s age.
** Page 317 and 321: The government will impose a
prohibition on hospital expansion; however, communities may petition for an exception.
** Page 425, line 4-12: The government mandates advance-care planning consultations. Those on Social Security will be required to attend an “end-of-life planning” seminar every five years. (Death counseling.)
SO PALIN WAS RIGHT - THERE ARE DEATH PANELS!!!
** Page 429, line 13-25: The government will specify
which doctors can write an end-of-life order.
HAD ENOUGH???? Judge Kithil then goes on:
“Finally, it is specifically stated that this bill will not
apply to members of Congress. Members of Congress are already exempt from the Social Security system, and have a well-funded private plan that covers their retirement needs. If they were on our Social Security plan, I believe they would find a very quick ‘fix’ to make the plan financially sound for their future.”
Honorable David Kithil (Judge)
Marble Falls, Texas
All of the above should give you the point blank ammo you need to support your opposition to Obamacare. Please send this information on to all of your email contacts.
It was never design nor intended to “fix” anything!
The objective was ALWAYS to maximize control over the electorate, by reducing their Constitutional freedoms, increasing their taxes, ruining free markets, American business, and industry.
Obama HATES America and what it stands for!
His ONLY objective is to reduce it to a second rate, socialist nation, under the permanent control of socialists.
Who is Dan Rushing? Where did this come from? Did you write it?
Pay a fine or go to jail. THAT’s what’s wrong with it!
It’s quite simple actually. The Social Security (retirement) fund is tapped out so a new source of revenue (healthcare) is needed to funnel money to their “associates and supporters”. It’s modeled just like corresponding private sector union-mobster retirement and healthcare embezzelment scams. And they play it the same way.
