“I would like to extend my sympathy to these latest targets of the FedMob

If they are going to discriminate against smokers (which IS the plan), I’m going to have a major problem paying for the treatment of 300 pound diabetics, people who live on Cheeze-Its and beer, drug addicts, AIDS/STD patients who acquired the disease from being promiscuous, skydivers who get hurt, people who drive drunk, without seat belts, people injured playing sports...where will this end??

ObamaCare Coming to a Public School Near You May 12, 2012

Well, in addition to the health care “exchanges” in the states, ObamaCare has provided for health care centers to be built and run right out of your neighborhood public schools. The Obama administration is rolling out its plans to pour the millions of dollars the Democrats in Congress allocated to the law into “school-based health centers.” The law includes funds to build and run clinics to give students free diagnoses, treatment for chronic medical conditions and mental health screenings.

On Wednesday, Kathleen Sebelius announced that another $75 million in taxpayer funds is “available” to build health clinics in schools. $200 million was appropriated by Congressional Democrats for the School-Based Health Center Capital Program, and the current $75 million is the third in a series of grants available to these school-based health centers.

Why do we want our schools “tracking” our children’s health data? What happens if your child doesn’t “fit in” with the “recommendations?” Are student’s grades going to be impacted by failure to meet health “recommendations?” Could it be suggested that some parents are not meeting their parental responsibilities because their children are overweight, or not doing the required number of jumping jacks, or seem uncomfortable with the curriculum on healthy homosexual relationships?
