Not Enough Time To Read Health Care Reform Bill
Posted by Staff on July 17, 2009
Share This By Joseph Russell-Talk Radio News Service Rep. Paul Ryan
(R-Wis.) was admittedly blurry eyed when he addressed a group from
the Better Health Bloggers on Friday. Ryan was up all night on
Capitol Hill finalizing the House Ways and Means Committee version
of the health care reform. “It’s a bill that none of us read because
we couldn’t read it possibly in the time allotted, and we have no
idea what it costs. Nevertheless, the bill is out of the Ways and
Means Committee on its way to the House floor,” said Ryan.
Ryan addressed the Better Health Bloggers as part of a nation wide
campaign for physicians to support patients’ rights. Ryan asked for
support of the “Patient’s Choice Act,” which reforms health care by
strengthening the relationship between doctors and patients while
opening competition to contain costs, rather than raising the
possibility of government rationing and restrictions. Ryan said
under his bill “more uninsured Americans can be covered by spending
current dollars more wisely and more efficiently, than throwing
trillions more at the problem.” Dr. Val Jones created Better Health,
a network of popular health bloggers, to support and promote health
care professional’s views on reform, science, research, and care,
through blogs.

July 17th, 2009 at 2:42 pm CHOOSING THE USUAL PROFITING
INSURANCE COMPANY, OR CHOOSING GOVERNMENT PLAN SHOULD
BE UP TO AMERICANS?
The deciding factor in implementing health care for everybody–
LEGALLY–in America, is the Publics voice? Those who want to just
follow the same old road, can do so with the profit taking commercial
insurance. Those who would be satisfied with a government run health
care program, can now start demanding it from the lawmakers. Those
who see a Universal health care system, similar to most developed
countries in Europe, should start informing every Representative
and Senate politician starting today. Rationing in places like
England, was caused by the major impact of uncontrolled immigration.
Most American working class can do–without– high premiums, pre-
existing condition clauses. deductibles, co-pays that is representa-
tive of the wealthy medical care insurers. Whatever pertains to your
family, you should start ruffling the indifferent feathers of the
people in Washington at 202-224-3121
Just like illegal immigration , we cannot afford anymore to subsidize
the business that hire them or the millions of illegal families.

THERE IS NO RIGHT TO CHOOSE. Read the actual bill. It takes away
your right to choose whether you want to be in the private or govt
plan. If you are in the private, lose your job and go on the govt
plan, you can’t EVER go back to the private plan. And, America has
worse IRRESPONSIBLE, UNCONTROLLED immigration as those countries
in Europe where there is rationing. Canada has rationing–it takes
a month to get a CT scan in Canada on average. Our Government has
not done that well running Medicare and Medicaid. When they can
actually run that effectively, maybe I would consider letting the
government run a health care program for everyone. But, their track
record just doesn’t do it for now.

NO MORE FREE RIDES:
ReplyDeleteAmerica should rigidly adopt a "points system" on immigration reform as many industrialized countries have? Only the cream at the top of the milk, should get priority to immigrate. Simply stated people with outstanding credential, who are Ph.d in scientific research, top grade engineers and highly rated professionals, will be readily sponsored for a good paying jobs, exceptional health care, a great pension on retirement, in major industries. They are not going to become bottom feeders who take advantage of federal state and county welfare benefits. They will not be illegal pregnant Mothers who intentionally steal across the border, so the good taxpayers will support her and her instant citizenship baby. They are not the 20 plus million who are going to suck America dry, because either political party patronizes the corporate parasites that have attracted cheap labor. We can never have a balanced health care program, as long as taxpayers are forced by federal mandate to give free education, health care and a host of other benefits. The border fence must be a two layer system, that goes from Brownsville Texas, to San Diego, California--with a permanent special National Guard unit.
E-Verify must be in-perpetuity, not voluntary, for everybody throughout the United States. Not employees who have just been hired, but everybody who is on the payroll. There should be a large formidable force of interior ICE inspectors who make lightening strikes on large and small business. The penalty for hiring illegal aliens should be extremely severe, as they are stealing jobs from Americans and legal residents. Confiscation of assets, heavy fines and certainly prison sentences. Without these pre-requisites, E-Verify will not be efficient enough. NUMBERSUSA for more details Without any question's workers in industry should have be able to call ICE, and leave a message about their suspicions of illegal activity in their working location. Those illegal workers confronted by a upgraded application in the workplace, will soon shy away from any contact with employers who stipulate the use of E-Verification. Inferior enforcement for years of neglect and inefficiency whether intentional or not by previous administration, are to blame for the incessant illegal immigration that has clogged the American labors work environment. SAY NO TO ANOTHER AMNESTY! SAY NO TO ANY PATH TO CITIZENSHIP. RESCIND THE INSTANT BIRTHRIGHT LAW. RESCIND ANY KIND OF BENEFITS TO THOSE WHO CANNOT PROVE THEIR CITIZENSHIP! NO TO IRREVERSIBLE OVERPOPULATION! ERUPT YOUR ANGER IN THE EAR OF YOUR Senator and Congressman today at 202-224-3121---BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE.
