If we take the time to look Canada's health care system. it took them years to get everyone healthy. but they did it. and they continue to provide PREVENTIVE care to everyone,And that has driven down the cost of all medical related items such as prescriptions and hospital bills and all. I thin we just need to take a step back and plan this out carefully and not rush into something

Obama Health Plan to Cover 12 Million Illegals "On Friday, Democrats moved one step closer to giving free health insurance to the nation’s estimated 12 million illegal aliens when they successfully defeated a Republican-backed amendment, offered by Rep. Dean Heller, R-Nev., that would have prevented illegal aliens from receiving government-subsidized health care under the proposed plan backed by House Democrats and President Barack Obama." This information can be found at http://www.newsmax.com/headlines/hea...19/237484.html DO YOU REALLY WANT TO PAY FOR A BORDER HOPPER'S HEALTHCARE? YES/NO? WHAT IN THE WORLD IS OBAMA THINKING! I DON'T WANT 50% OF MY PAYCHECK GOING TOWARDS THIS BILL. AND IF I DON'T AGREE WITH IT OR GET ANY WHAT SO EVER COVERAGE I'LL BE FINED $2500 YEARLY. WAKE UP PEOPLE THIS IS AMERICA NOT CANADA OR CHINA. DO YOU REALLY WANT BIG GOVERNMENT & BUREAUCRATS MAKING YOUR HEALTH CARE DECISIONS & DETERMANING WHATS GOOD FOR YOU?! DO YOU REALLY WANT PEOPLE LIKE ACORN HELPING OUT WITH THIS & DO YOU REALLY WANT THE GOVERNMENT KEEPING YOUR PERSONAL HEALTH INFORMATION ON FILE IN DC?!

The petition might be legit, but the problem is if anyone is actually going to give a ****.
I don't think so. Nope, wait... Nvm, no one gives a **** yet.

You meanwhile seem to be siding with this plan and Obama not thinking about these things, just buying into the fairytale oasis that's being sold to you by the media. |

Preventative care rests solely on the patients being compliant with routine care. Until the government forces diabetics to receive HGBA1C lab tests, foot exams, diabetic eye exams, and insulin on a regular basis, they will not have any control over the variables.

President Obama isn't writing this Bill, therefore it isn't his Bill. All he can do is sign one of MANY bills being proposed to the house of representatives to law or veto it. What you are proposing you sign this petition against is far from the truth. Also, there are MANY private insurance companies in Britain and Canada that provide additional health care on top of the basic care the government provides. There are huge industries that depend on how little a government plan would cover. Get the facts straight.

The un-twisted truth is - Illegally, Illegal aliens can get real drivers licenses and even SS cards Illegally so that they can "become" US citizens (an estimated 12million). Under Obama's plan ALL Americans will be included for this healthcare plan. This is something being worked on and something the democrats clearly wouldn't want (including Obama) as stated in the article. Also this isn't something wrong with the bill, its something wrong in a whole other department. 1. Is 50% of your paycheck going to pay for this bill? Where’s that written? 2. Are our medical records being store in DC? Where’s that written?

Alot of Americans already pay for health insurance and pay way too much, or the company they work for has to hence why alot can't offer it. Health insurance cost have slowly raised solely do to greed of Hospitals, doctors, and of course insurance fraud. Doctors/Hospitals over testing just to bill your insurance company more. Now of course as shown people will say "sh** man I want all the tests possible just in case" yeah, of course, but SOMEONE has to pay for it (your insurance company, you pay say 12k a year for coverage and the doctor just ran 15k in tests in one week). The insurance companies raises rates to keep up (not to mention there’s also un-justifiable greed on the insurance companies part in cases).. Do you see anything wrong with that? How would you fix it? Obama's plan - Control health care himself because obviously insurance companies and Hospitals/doctors can't do it ethically/effeciantly. allow tesing ONLY for necessary needs (this is where the twisting came up with rationing, or being turned down for testing by making it sound like Obama wont allow all tests NEEDED to be done ) Eventually health care coverage costs will lower once all the BS is gone. Right now, if more comes out of our checks so be it, but SOMETHING has to be done to try and fix it.

While I'm not going to get in to the "illegals coverage" aspect of this, largely because nobody in their right mind would include that straight up in this bill (they'll sneak that by in another bill as Obama said that illegal children still need and will get the coverage in multiple interviews that he has done), I do want to address two things...
Quote:
http://frwebgate.access.gpo.gov/cgi-...=f:h3200ih.pdf Are you really that bat**** insane that you think spending a trillion dollars of taxpayer money is going to save money on health care? This is just fan****ingtastic. I can't believe that you really think this. I'm shocked and appalled. Jesus christ open your god damn eyes and READ THE ****ING BILL ALREADY! Quote:
And yes, you are absolutely right about the government not covering everything in other countries. The bills purposed here also have annual limitations, and different tiers each with their own individual and family limitations (for example, $5,000 individual, $10,000 family). Also, IF the bill is passed, I will be keeping my private health insurance. However, in 5 years, when all of the insurance companies have to strictly abide by the government rules (that's in the bill too), I will probably end up switching to the ****ty government ran health care since my private is going to be the same. You know, they have to keep things competitive so the private industry could never be able to run better. Or perhaps, GASP, the government gives themselves advantages that the private industry does not have! Oh, they wouldn't do that. Would they? You can read about all of this in the above link to HR 3200. Last edited by ITSTOCK; 07-30-2009 at 08:09 AM. |

Bottom line, the governmant cannot step in and tell us how to run business. If they keep stepping in, eventually they will run everything. Once they start, it just snow balls. |
