I wonder if you people are getting this!

It's the plan of the writers of this tax scam to do the following:

Eliminate so-called "Cadillac" health insurance plans.
Reduce everyone's coverage to bare bones minimum.
Let any expense above and beyond minimum coverage be decided on a case by case basis.
Tax the hell out of insurance companies, drug companies, health care providers and EVERY AMERICAN CITIZEN!


How is levying all of these taxes supposed to REDUCE healthcare costs? It doesn't!!!

What will reduce overall healthcare costs is FORCE HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS TO REDUCE YOUR COVERAGE BY TAXING THE LIVING SHIT OUT OF THEM!!!!!!

WHAT KIND OF REFORM IS THIS!!!!!!!
