With the passage last night of the “Healthcare” Bill and the signing of that Bill into Law by the president, America has taken the largest turn toward Socialism in its history. The president and the Dems on Capitol Hill are walking around calling this a historic moment in America and I agree with them. So this is the “change” Mr. Obama ran on. This is the “change” his duped supporters swallowed during the election. This is the “change” that you and I will be forced to live and pay for for the rest of our lives.
A few days ago I heard the president touting what this “change” would mean for America. Now let me tell you the truth:
MYTH: The president said that millions of Americans will now be able to get “the same” healthcare that members of Congress get.
FACT: This is a lie! Members of Congress get elite medical treatment through the Capitol Hill medical system.
MYTH: The president said that this legislation will cut the deficit, “by over a trillion dollars.”
FACT: This is a lie! The Congressional Budget Office states that this bill will cut the deficit by 138 Billion. First, this is NOWHERE near a Trillion dollars. Second, This 138 Billion is only saved IF the Medicare cuts go through AND doesn’t take into account the “Doctor Fix.” Recently, Obama said that he would cut the fees paid to doctors that treat Medicare patients. This was supposed to save about 400 Billion and help pay for the “healthcare” bill. The problem is that at the last minute, the “Doctor Fix” was taken out of the Bill! Say goodbye to any possible deficit cuts.
MYTH: Over the last several weeks, the president has vilified insurance companies and bug drug companies. He talked about “eliminating insurance subsidies within Medicare that aren’t making anybody healthier but are fattening the profits of insurance companies.”
FACT: At the last minute, several provisions were put into the legislation that HELP big drug companies and actually MAKE MORE MONEY for the insurance companies. The president stated that he would lower healthcare premium increases and make insurance more affordable. This is a lie!! With these last minute provisions, insurance premiums will still increase and any penalties imposed by the federal government can AND WILL simply be passed onto consumers.
MYTH: The president has said that you will not be affected by this legislation.
FACT: Every American will be affected by this new law. Either you will be the one of the recipients or you will be one of the providers. let be define each a little more. For those of you that have worked hard in your field, provided for your family, made mostly wise financial decisions and already have adequate healthcare – YOU ARE NOW A PROVIDER. If you have struggled with finding work, have found it hard to pay your bills and mortgage, agonize about whether to pay bills or buy food and look to the government for long-term help – YOU ARE A RECIPIENT. With the passage of this bill, the Democrats (against the will of the people) have shackled our kids with Trillions in debt.
MYTH: Bart Stupak and the “Pro-life” Democrats oppose government funding of abortion
FACT: Under intense pressure from the White House and Congressional leaders, Stupak and the rest have sold out their principles for their own re-elections. Through the guise of an Executive Order, the White House BOUGHT the votes they needed to pass this MASSIVE spending bill.
MYTH: The House passed this bill with specific guarantees that the Senate would vote on a “Fix Bill.” This is supposed to fix everything that is wrong with the bill that just passed. WAIT!?!?! If there are things that need to be “FIXED” in this WHY DID IT GET PASSED?
FACT: This bill should NOT have passed! The American people didn’t want it. The “Fix Bill” won’t fix anything.
My friends, I truly believe that this is the beginning of the end for our form of government and out way of life. Now that Obama has rammed one piece of Socialism through, they will stop at nothing. Next on the agenda will be Immigration Reform. Mark my words, Obama and his cronies will give away our country!
The time is rapidly approaching where diplomatic solutions won’t be enough. Those in power talk about bi-partisanship while not listening to anyone in the public. They lie to the American people about EVERYTHING then smile and applaud as they steal our money.
The election this November will be a telling factor as to the future of our country.
One last thought: If the Dems thought the Tea Parties were big in the last few years, WAIT UNTIL APRIL 15TH THIS YEAR!
