Some details on the health care bill
« on: July 25, 2009, 06:52:28 AM »
Hi Folks,
 
It will be almost impossible not to be personally affected by this bill in a negative manner.  Apparently an attorney named Scott Miller put this together and it is a collection of items he put on tweeter.  For those of you not familiar with tweeter, you have a limit on the number of characters so they have to be shortened, abbreviated etc.
 
If you are a doctor, there are several items in here for you.
 
If you are a parent of a special needs child, or are special needs yourself, you have a few in the bill you may take issue with.  As Ruth Ginsberg said, abortion was to limit the undesirables.  Well this is really the next step in the process.
 
If you are a senior you are screwed unless you like to be death counseled regularly.  They will not only have access to your medical records, but also your social security and personal financial information.  Therefore the more you are worth (better for the government on inheritence taxes), the more social security you get, and your aging all add up to the fact the sooner they can get you dead, the more money for the government.  It is all spelled out.
 
If you are an employer, it is gonna cost you big time.
 
If you are an American citizen, your health care RIGHTS will be taken away.  You will no longer have a right to good quality health care or any choices for that matter.  The government will mandate your choices, they are no longer left up to you.
 
If you are working for acorn, you get paid off big time.
 
If you are in this country illegally, or a union member, not sure but I think you go to the head of the line.
 
Read on, following is what I received.  Page numbers are documented by the attorney so this is a report of what is actually in the bill.
 
 
Dear Friends:
 
Below you will find a great bit of detail concerning the "Obama Care" takeover of the healthcare system.  I want to thank Scott Miller who put this together.
 
The last I heard, Senators were receiving an avalanche of letters and phone calls against the takeover.  Don't stop.  Apparently the Democratic leadership plans to delay the vote until after the August recess hoping that the public will be focusing on something else by then. 
 
Use your computers, use your phones.  The only way we will get anything that resembles a reasonable healthcare reform is if this proposals dies.

And for what it is worth here is a link to the actual bill at the energy commerce page.  This bill's length [at 1018 pages] more than makes up for the brevity of the twitter post.  Yes on page 354 one finds:

Quote
SEC. 1177. EXTENSION OF AUTHORITY OF SPECIAL NEEDS 3
PLANS TO RESTRICT ENROLLMENT. 4
(a) IN GENERAL.—Section 1859(f)(1) of the Social 5

I have no idea what it means and I doubt my Rep does, but you can bet I will be sure to ask, IIRC she is a big supporter of Special Ed.
