The elderly will not be able to make their own life ending decisions I am afraid and also the present life care prevention medicine will most likely go away. It will also be changed to use for abortion and assisted suicide if not included now but it will be in the future.

We have a problem with health care costs. We can't continue with the costs going in the direction they are now. A group of people pointed the same direction can accomplish much more than only one. Why is this called socialized medicine, but we don't call the highway system socialized roads?

Rep. Bart Stupak informed Greta Van Susteren of FOX News that the White House told him to keep silent on abortion until the President had a chance to walk him through the pro-abortion Nelson-Reid Amendment.

Stupak responded, "I don't need you to walk me through the amendment. I can read, and this amendment is unacceptable." He went on to explain his objections to the Senate bill:

-- It recognizes abortion as a benefit covered under disease prevention (by this logic, the baby must be the disease)

-- It forces taxpayers to subsidize health care plans that pay for abortions (in direct violation of the Hyde Amendment)

-- It forces every enrollee in the federal exchange to pay a monthly fee to fund "reproductive rights" (abortion)

As you know, the Senate bill and the House bill must now be reconciled in a conference between Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid. Nancy Pelosi has already indicated her intention of making sure that the abortion funding of the Senate bill is included in the final bill instead of the Stupak Amendment.

Big business is pushing the Health Care "Reform" bill because it will relieve them of the burden of the employee "benefit".
What most people don't know out "mandatory" health insurance, just a small detail of Obama's health care plan is this:
Mandatory means by law you must purchase health insurance. Obama plans to set up an exchange where person can shop for a plan that suits them. Anyone who doesn't have insurance will be required by law to purchase it. Qualified low income persons or families can get Gov't help to pay thier premiums.
This is how Massachusetts set up their "mandatory health" plan.
The individual mandate is a requirement that all Massachusetts residents over the age of 18, for whom available health insurance is affordable, obtain and maintain health insurance that meets minimum coverage requirements beginning July 1, 2007.
Individuals who cannot show proof of health insurance coverage by Dec. 31, 2007, will lose their personal income tax exemption when filing their 2007 income taxes. Also,failure to meet the requirement in 2008 will result in a fine for each month the individual does not have coverage.
This is one major point that proponents don't want the general public to know about.
In Massachusetts, a family of 4 with 2 working adults, making about 50k a year, is paying about $350.00 a month for minimum coverage requirements.
Is this what we want? You think the economy can withstand this? The above family could barely make ends meet as it is on 50k a year.

Your response will be quick, and your timing near perfect. If you don't accomplish what you set out to do this morning by the end of the day, it won't be for lack of trying. Getting an 'A' for effort is sometimes better than facing the test.
