You Should Know About Harry Reid's Government-Run Health CareExperiment

In article , "Richard W." wrote: You Should Know About Harry Reid's Government-Run Health Care Experiment 1. $493 Billion In Tax Increases On Health Insurance, Medical Innovation, Payroll And Small Businesses Would Pay For The Bill. (Douglas W. Elmendorf, Letter To Senator Harry Reid, 11/18/09) 2. Americans Won't See Benefits Of This Health Care Experiment Until 2014, But They Start Paying For It In 2010. (Page 13, Douglas W. Elmendorf, Letter To Senator Harry Reid, 11/18/09) 3. Reid's Bill Allegedly Reduces The Deficit By $130 Billion In Ten Years, But The Obama-Reid-Pelosi Spending Agenda Produced Deficit Of $176 Billion Last Month Alone. (Table 3, Douglas W. Elmendorf, Letter To Senator Harry Reid, 11/18/09) 4. $465 Billion In Medicare And Medicaid Cuts Would Pay For Two New Unsustainable Entitlements. (Douglas W. Elmendorf, Letter To Senator Harry Reid, 11/18/09) 5. Health Care Costs For The Federal Government - And Your Family - Would Increase, Not Decrease. (Page 16, Douglas W. Elmendorf, Letter To Senator Harry Reid, 11/18/09) 6. A New Medicare Commission Of Unelected Bureaucrats Would Ration Care. (Sec. 3403, H.R. 3590, Amendment In The Nature Of A Substitute, "Patient Protection And Affordable Care Act," Introduced 11/18/09) 7. The "Doc Fix" Provision That Would Add $250 Billion To The Deficit Is Not Included In The Democrats' List Price For Their Health Care Experiment. (Page 17, Douglas W. Elmendorf, Letter To Senator Harry Reid, 11/18/09) 8. Taxpayer Dollars Would Fund Abortions. (Sec. 1303(a), H.R. 3590, Amendment In The Nature Of A Substitute, "Patient Protection And Affordable Care Act," Introduced 11/18/09) 9. A New Entitlement Program For Long-Term Care That One Democrat Senator Called "A Ponzi Scheme" Would Be Created. (Douglas W. Elmendorf, Letter To Senator Harry Reid, 11/18/09; Shailagh Murray & Lori Montgomery, "Centrists Unsure About Reid's Public Option," The Washington Post, 10/28/09) 10. States Burdened With $25 Billion In Unfunded Mandates From Medicaid That Would Force Them To Increase Taxes. (Page 7, Douglas W. Elmendorf, Letter To Senator Harry Reid, 11/18/09) Yeah...and ask any small business owner if they like this turkey of government control. The individual taxpayers will like it even less. But the millions of people with no health insurance at all, the people with pre-existing conditions, or the people who are sick and can't get insurance, they're going to love it. Hawke |

So when you get hit by surprise with a devastating illness, like Gunner did, are you going to refuse treatment beyond what you can pay out of your own pocket? Can you handle a $275,000 bill, like the one that he got? And if you get a repeat, like a lot of heart attack victims do, will you be able to handle another $275,000? I think Dick Cheney had five of them. Could you handle five? -- Ed Huntress |

I am simply saying that some people have more faith in thier god than they do in doctors and that is the reason for the religious exemption in the bill. Best Regards Tom. |

The fact remains that affordable health care requires spreading the total burden over a very large population of patients/insured/covered. -- John R. Carroll |

It is for most people who have had one -- those who got care. Those who didn't are dead. I'd like to say that we can just let everyone decide if they'll be treated or not but this isn't the Amazaon jungle. Someone is going to patch you up, like it or not. Then they'll bill the rest of us for it. I am simply saying that some people have more faith in thier god than they do in doctors and that is the reason for the religious exemption in the bill. Yeah. But we'll still wind up paying to patch them up, just like Gunner. -- Ed Huntress |

Why couldn't they just let the law of the jungle apply in Gummer's case? It's what he says is best. I don't see why they couldn't make an exception for him? Hawke |
