Oh, you have to PASS it before you can find out what is in it…

Well if I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes I don’t think I would have believed it. You have to PASS the bill before you can see what is in it. Nancy Pelosi is admitting that she doesn’t exactly know what’s in the bill but she knows it’s good and “exciting.” Well I’m convinced! Let’s do this!

When I’m done maybe I’ll get a mail-order bride too. There’s no need to talk to her or meet her, just package one up and ship her to me. I find out what she’s like after I marry her.

Then after that I think I’ll buy a used car online without even so much as a test drive. I can find out what’s wrong with the car AFTER I get it in the drive way.

This is why this is the worst Idea I have heard of. This is so screwed up! We have to allow ourselves to be burdened with the bill and the new laws and regulations it will put on us BEFORE we find out what it says, exactly. Let’s face it. It will be YEARS before we figure out everything that’s in the Healthcare Bill. By then it will be too late to fix any of it.

This is Washington B.S. 101!

Obamacare must not Pass

This healthcare bill cannot be allowed to pass.  If it does, then we will have a 2000 page bill with laws, regulations, and who else knows what determining the fate of our healthcare.  Which begs the question, why the hell IS it so big?  It couldn’t be because if the bill is so big no one would take the time to read it would it?  No, that couldn’t be it…

So, if you don’t want someone to read the bill you make it 2000 pages long.  Why?  Ever seen the IRS tax code?  It is likes 80,000 pages.  Why the hell do you think it is so big?  Why so many codes?  Why is it so long?  Could it be so that no one bothers to read it?  And if they did, it would probably be so confusing that you wouldn’t really understand what was in there in the first place.

I am reminded of the novel Atlas Shrugged.  At one point a Washington stooge tells Hank Reardon the secret behind democracies.  That secret being that you pass law that are vague, impossible to interpret and impossible to enforce.  You pass laws that are so numerous that it makes it impossible for anyone to be a law abiding citizen.  Then you can do anything you want to anyone at any time.  Ayn Rand, knew what she was talking about.  She lived in Soviet Russia and that is one of the things they did there.  Nobody broke the law in the Soviet Union, officially, but nobody was able to obey them either.  That’s how they got rid of their enemies.

So what does that have to do with healthcare? Well, it’s simple.  There is a 2000 page bill which contains nothing and everything at the same time.  This bill hasn’t been read, by anyone preparing to vote for it.  In it contains what?  The cure to our healthcare problems.  Almost certainly not.  Those 2000 pages represent exactly what Ayn Rand was talking about.  Those 2000 pages represent the scaffolding for something else.  Even if they do add the GOP ideas and take out this thing or that option inside is still the basic framework for something sinister.  That sinister thing is the ability to control every aspect of your life.

Why does the IRS need to know about your healthcare choices?  I don’t know either but it’s in the bill.  Why does the government want so much influence over who gets healthcare, what kind of healthcare is available and how much?  Think about it.  Everything you do affects your health.  If you eat fast food, that affects your health.  If you smoke that does too.  The government is going to intrude on your way of life and document every aspect of your life that has negative effects on your health.  Then what will they do?  I don’t know.  But they’re going to do something about it you can bet your life.

Maybe they will eventually use the data as a means to enact the Single-payer system in which they have absolute control over your life.  Will they deny you expensive, life-saving drugs and treatment because you eat too much fast food?  Or will they pull the plug on your cancer treatment because you smoked when you were younger?  I don’t know.  But it seems likely.

If people tell you it’s about cutting the cost of healthcare then ask them this.  Why does the government need to provide subsidies to people in order to make their payments go down under this bill?  That’s not lowering the cost of healthcare its RAISING the cost of healthcare.   What if you lose your job?  How will you pay for your healthcare then?  Will the government pay it for you?  How convenient that they would do that since that’s their stated goal: to get everyone on single payer.  Don’t believe me? Go watch the video.

If it’s about cutting costs, then ask yourself this.  Is it reasonable to believe that the Federal Government is able to save money and cut costs?  If you believe it is then I submit to you Medicare and Medicaid, Social Security and the Federal Budget.  Please point out to me the government program capable of saving money.  I’ll save you your time and energy.  You can’t.  Government will always cost more tomorrow than it did today.  It will always cost more than what was projected and it will always need to take more from the people in order to survive.

So if it’s not about controlling costs, then it has to be about expanding coverage right?  Let me ask you this, how do you expand coverage to 30 million people without adding to the costs of the program?  You can’t.  Let me ask you this, how do you expand coverage when people in the healthcare industry are dropping like flies to get out of the industry?  You can’t… unless you start rationing healthcare. 

The people who wrote this bill know that it will fail.  It is meant to fail.  It is meant to fail so that we can get a NEW bill that will create universal healthcare.  Mark My Words.  That’s why we can’t let it pass.
