...to help pay for expanding coverage to the uninsured...
*raises hand*
Um, I already pay for coverage for the uninsured through higher premiums. Is the gubmint gonna lower those premiums? ::)
Obama will not tax anyone who's not "RICH"! Who are the "rich"? ANYONE with an earned or unearned income of ANY amount.
I hate hate hate hate hate hate hate the way the cram this stuff through the senate and congress so fast. No way to really read and understand all the language, get feedback from the people, etc.That seems to be the Democrat's MO on everything. We HAVE to confirm Sotomayor before the August court session begins. We HAVE to push the stimulus bill though before anyone gets a chance to read any of it. We HAVE to pass TARP funding to save homeowners before things get worse. We HAVE to do something about health care, and this is the result.
Scarey stuff.
While the 615-page bill, titled “Affordable Health Choices Act,” deals with dozens of reform issues, it sidesteps for now the controversial issue of whether employers should be required to provide coverage.
The bill also proposes that the federal government reinsure those employers offering health care coverage to retirees between the ages of 55 and 64. The government would reinsure 80% of each claim of between $15,000 and $90,000.
Other provisions closely track a draft outline made available last week, including the elimination of annual and lifetime dollar limits on health care expenses plans cover and giving the states authority to set up exchanges where employers and individuals could select health care plans offered by insurers.

Besides job losses, we really haven't seen the affect of his decisions with only 6 months into his term...I fear it will get really horrible and only then will people have no choice but to get him out in 012.
I think we've seen other aspects of his presidency, if not exactly his decisions. Hasn't there been an up tick in the actions of so-called enemy states, i.e. Iran and North Korea? Sure , these same things were going on under President Bush, but they were more spaced out , but now it seems that certain countries know they can act with impunity.
Watch Nero as the country burns it's economy to ashes.
He's too busy on Date Nightstm with his wife in NYC and Paris on OUR dime to care.Even his beloved MSM is nailing him on that one. He's got to know he's out in '12, so he's getting all he can while he can. I expect the WH to be stripped to the walls when he leaves.
How did that kind of plan work out for the state of Mass?
Ugh. He HAS to be a one-term president.
I really don't want to see my medical benefits turn into taxable income.
I work for a big company, it's within the top 50 of the Fortune 500. My health insurance is a big part of my benefits package. Even the little bit of it that I pay ($60 a month) is paid for with my pre-tax income. The estimated value of such coverage is $600 a month. That would be alot of extra tax for me.
So much for President Obama only wanting to raise taxes on the "rich." Let's tax my benefits so we can pay for others. :bird:
I pay about $40/week pretax also, and I still don't want to have to pay tax on my benefits. I haven't even met my deductible in over 10 years, so it would almost be cheaper to be with out the company insurance , if it weren't for the proposed fines on people without insurance.
If benefits are taxed, I think more would opt out of coverage. Then of course we would see people being put in jail for not taking out health insurance.
What type of sales pitch needs to include the word "Obama?" :lmao: :lmao:
