Health Care and government involvement
Posted by: Fan of Freedom
We all know that our country needs a better health care system, and our President has been working on getting this changed for the better… or so they tell us.
Here are some examples of some snip-its that are in the bill:

-Page 30 Sec 123 of HC bill: * THERE WILL BE A GOVT COMMITTEE that decides what treatments/benefits you get.*

-Page 29 lines 4-16 in the HC bill: * YOUR HEALTH CARE IS RATIONED!!! *

-Page 42 of HC Bill: * The Health Choices Commissioner will choose your HC benefits for you. You have no choice! *

-Page 58 HC Bill: * Govt will have real-time access to individuals’ finances & a ‘National ID Health card’ will be issued! * (Papers please!)

-Page 59 HC Bill lines 21-24: Govt will have direct access to your bank accounts for elective funds transfer.

Page 85 Line 7 HC Bill: Specifications of Benefit Levels for Plans — The Govt will ration your health care!

-Page 12 4 lines 24-25 HC: No company can sue GOVT on price fixing. No “judicial review” against Govt monopoly.

-Page 127 Lines 1-16 HC Bill: Doctors/ American Medical Association – The Govt will tell YOU what salary you can make.

-Page 170 Lines 1-3 HC Bill: Any NONRESIDENT Alien is exempt from individual taxes. (Americans will pay.)

-Page 272 SEC. 1145: TREATMENT OF CERTAIN CANCER HOSPITALS – Cancer patients – welcome to rationing!

-Page 341 Lines 3-9: The Govt has authority to disqualify Medicare Advance Plans, HMOs, etc. (Forcing people into the Govt plan)

-Page 354 Sec 1177: The Govt will RESTRICT enrollment of ‘special needs people!’

-Page 425 Lines 17-19: The Govt will instruct and consult regarding living wills, durable powers of attorney, etc. (And it’s mandatory!)
-Page 425 Lines 22-25, 426 Lines 1-3: The Govt provides an “approved” list of end-of-life resources; guiding you in death. (Also called ‘assisted suicide.’)

-Page 429 Lines 10-12: An “advanced care consultation” may include an ORDER for end-of-life plans.. (AN ORDER TO DIE FROM THE GOVERNMENT?!?)

Page 430 Lines 11-15: The Govt will decide what level of treatment you will have at end-of-life! (Again - no choice!)

So, if you ask me, it doesn’t sound like this is going to benefit * “the people” very much! *

I’m trying to do some more research to find out more then just these little snip-its from the bill. I believe this info is public info, so if/when this information is located I’ll post it too.

This was a very interesting read too:
