I’ve been wondering what happens to a retired vet who has health care provided through Tricare or whatever and who also works for a company that offers medical insurance but declines it.
This usurper hates everything and everyone who made this country great.
I'm sure they'll get screwed somehow. As for me, I have the Tricare AND insurance through my employer. When I go to the hospital, doctor, or pharmacy, I, and the rest of my family, very rarely pay a co-pay or deductible for anything. Why do I have the feeling that this is gonna start costing me (now that it'll be FREE)?
Those of us who have serverd, sacrificed and some who have given the ultimate will be thrown under the bus for illegals and politicians:
National Health Insurance to include illegal immigrants? YES
- On Friday, July 17th, 2009, Democrats defeated a Republican-backed amendment, authored by Rep. Dean Heller, R-Nev., that proposed illegal aliens would not be allowed to received tax payer subsidized health care. The amendment was axed by the House Ways and Means Committee with a 26-15 vote.
Mandatory counseling on assisted suicide training every five years for everyone on Medicare YES
- This little gem, on page 425 of the Health Care Bill, has the objective to explain to Medicare recipients how to end their life earlier. Saying this is “a vicious assault” on senior citizens and the baby boomer generation, Betsy McCaughey, former New York Lt. Governor, now Patient Advocate and Chairman for Committee to Reduce Infectious Deaths, is one of the few people that has actually read the house passed Health Care Bill. According to her, in a radio interview with Fred Thompson, this Health Care Bill is about 50% funded by a $500 billion cut in health care for senior citizens.
If a Government Health Bill is passed, and is good enough for the people, surely it’s good enough for politicians? NO
- According to a Wall Street Journal article on July 18th, 2009, on Tuesday, the Senate health committee voted 12-11 in favor of a two-page amendment authored by Republican Tom Coburn requiring all Members and staff to enroll in any new government-run health plan. Every Democrat — with the exceptions of acting chairman Chris Dodd, Barbara Mikulski and Ted Kennedy via proxy — voted nay.
