Healthcare proposal

[Soaring]

- Yup. Medical services will go down; medical payments will go up; heath care quality will go down; taxes to pay for this will go up; the number of doctors will go down; the 'waiting in line time to see a doctor' will go up. But we will all share in this misery equally - except for government employees and elected officials. Anyone want to make a bet on that?.

House Health-Care Proposal Adds $600 Billion in Taxes (Update2)

June 12 (Bloomberg) -- Health-care overhaul legislation being drafted by House Democrats will include $600 billion in tax increases and $400 billion in cuts to Medicare and Medicaid, Ways and Means Committee Chairman Charles Rangel said.

Democrats will work on the bill’s details next week as they struggle through “what kind of heartburn” it will cause to agree on how to pay for revamping the health-care system,

Rangel, a New York Democrat, said today. The measure’s cost is reaching well beyond the $634 billion President Barack Obama proposed in his budget request to Congress as a 10-year down payment for the policy changes.

We are now slaves to A GREEDY government.

Thanks Soaring, the CBO assement of this Obama Healthcare scam is FINALLY coming out , the bad news is that the congress critters have basically taken the stance that "we don't like the CBO assessment therefor we will defer to the messiah controlled MBO's assessment" .... the lefties don't care about reality they just care about getting there own way (and screw the rest of us).. in the real world this is the type of behavior rational adults have come to expect from infants ( I don't like daddy's opinion so I'll ask for mommy's)..draw your own conclusions.

The Commonwealth Fund, in its annual survey, "Mirror, Mirror on the Wall", compares the performance of the health care systems in Australia, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, Germany, Canada and the U.S. Its 2007 study found that, although the U.S. system is the most expensive, it consistently under-performs compared to the other countries. One difference between the U.S. and the other countries in the study is that the U.S. is the only country without universal health insurance coverage.

It's certainly something to be ashamed of.
