Write a handwritten note, call, fax or email your congresscritters and U.S. senators and tell them to vote NO! on National Healthcare. Time is short. President Obama wants a vote on this in a couple of weeks.

You won’t be able to keep your current private health plan because it would not be fair to those less fortunate who have to rely on the public healh plan so for the good of all society we will all sink to the lowest common denominator.

[Man50D]

When you file your taxes, if you can't prove to the IRS that you are in a qualified plan, you'll be fined thousands of dollars -- as much as the average cost of a health plan for your family size -- and then automatically enrolled in a randomly selected plan (House bill, p. 167-168).

One more reason to rid the country of the increasingly oppressive federal income tax code and intrusive IRS by replacing with The Fair Tax Act(HR25/S296)that will replace all federal income taxes with a national sales tax an abolish the IRS. Fair Tax ping!

Do we really want government involved in such deeply personal issues?

No, no, and hell no!

From the article: Shockingly, only a portion of the money accumulated from slashing senior benefits and raising taxes goes to pay for covering the uninsured. The Senate bill allocates huge sums to "community transformation grants," home visits for expectant families, services for migrant workers -- and the creation of dozens of new government councils, programs and advisory boards slipped into the last 500 pages.

I hadn't heard about this part before. Sounds like another way to fund ACORN. Heaven help us.

If you read the text of the bill it gets even better:

• Exemption for unions (Sec 154).
   
• No disparity of benefits. You can't for example buy 'premium' coverage - regardless of price - unless it is specifically approved by the Commissioner (Sec 203(c)(5)). Except for unions and other favored groups.
   
• Report of your private health information to the government (Sec 204(b)(2)), the scope of which to be determined by the Commissioner.
   
• Mandatory enrollment. If you don't pick a plan the government will randomly put you in one (Sec 205(b)(3)(A)).
   
• Grant the IRS the right to impose punitive taxes if you aren't in one (Sec 207(c)(1)(A)).

This bill is blatantly unconstitutional. I have a God given right to seek medical services with the doctor of my choice. Congress has no legitimate power to force or fine me for doing so.

This is tyranny.

[Colonial Warrior]

This new ZEROBama Administraschun aint so bad….the water is jest fine!!!

[chatham]

” President” Obama should go back to Kenya or to any other god forsaken third world country he chooses.

Leave America ALONE.

BUT: Outlawing private insurance, WOULD reduce the demand for medical services, and push costs way down. If everyone had to pay ALL their medical costs themselves, they WOULD shop around, just like they do now for auto repairs, and they would not approve spending on frivolous tests, any more than they would for silly accessories for their own car. Inside 2 years, hospital, MRI and other tests, and physician prices wold be in the BASEMENT.

PRESIDENT Obama promises that "if you like your health plan, you can keep it," even after he reforms our health-care system. That's untrue.

Communists are all liars, and Zer"O" is both a communist and a liar. He lied about his so-called church, and he lied about it's hateful, anti-American pastor whose hate-filled, anti-white, anti-American "sermons" he had listened to for 20 years. He has lied continuously ever since he was sworn into office. What is so appalling to me is that so many people believe his outright lies. I suppose they see what a mistake they made by voting for him and they now want to believe him so much that they will swallow whatever lies he feeds them.

America is finished if he gets a second term. In fact it may be finished before he gets another term if his insane spending spree continues and legislation like this bill is enacted into law and upheld by a corrupted court system. Has all common sense totally deserted the American people since this foreign born communist who is determined to destroy the America he hates took over? For God's sake what has happened to the American people in the last few years?

Many of us have watched in alarm and sorrow as our nation has been undermined and stolen by socialist/communist educators, politicians, entertainers, and false religious leaders. What we have been afraid would happen "someday" is happening now right before our eyes. Pray that God will forgive us for allowing 50 million prebirth babies to be murdered in their mothers' bodies and give America one more chance to live up to it's forefathers' hopes and dreams. There's no reason why He w\should since we have turned our collective backs on Him for the last 60+ years and sneered at Him and His Holy Word, but He is graciously forgiving to those who return to Him in sincerity and sorrow for their sin.
