Oh yeah, THE HERITAGE FOUNDATION is actually a right wing biased group of businesses who come together to provide FALSE information to lobby for the republican platform. Do NOT cite them as reliable sources of information.

Just to make this clear to those the right wing is trying to MANIPULATE:

The health care bill will NOT stop, prevent, intrude, or change your current health care insurance and providers.

The health care bill is 'competitive'. Meaning, there will be private insurers as there ALWAYS have been and a government health care plan that will be provided for people WHO CAN NOT AFFORD your plans. Period.

These are the facts and they are indisputable.

Funny no one ever mentions the great expensive social program called public school systems.

Why not use the power of legislation to force the insurance providers to operate under different rules? Isn't that what government is for??? Two simple things can make insurance more affordable and it won't cost tax payers one red cent. Allow insurers to market health care plans to all Americans, regardless of their home state. Why can't I purchase a plan in Utah, or Texas, or anywhere that suits me, instead of forcing me to select a provider from my home state, where the pool is smaller and less competitive? I can buy anything I want on the internet from anywhere in the world. I can go to any state in the union and purchase life insurance, as long as I am actually in that state at the time of purchase, why not health care insurance? Also there must be a cap on malpractice awards. This alone will reduce costs dramatically.

Congress: It didn't take long to run into an "uh-oh" moment when reading the House's "health care for all Americans" bill. Right there on Page 16 is a provision making individual private medical insurance illegal.

IBD Exclusive Series: Government-Run Healthcare: A Prescription For Failure

When we first saw the paragraph Tuesday, just after the 1,018-page document was released, we thought we surely must be misreading it. So we sought help from the House Ways and Means Committee.
It turns out we were right: The provision would indeed outlaw individual private coverage. Under the Orwellian header of "Protecting The Choice To Keep Current Coverage," the "Limitation On New Enrollment" section of the bill clearly states:
"Except as provided in this paragraph, the individual health insurance issuer offering such coverage does not enroll any individual in such coverage if the first effective date of coverage is on or after the first day" of the year the legislation becomes law.

This Thomas Jefferson Quote says it all when it comes to how Obamacare will be paid for and who will pay for it!!! The middle class tax payers will wind up paying for it all before it is all over with!! Jefferson said: “A democracy will cease when you take away from those who are willing to work and give to those who would not”

This administration does not feel our constitution is a relevent document. To them it is an annoyance that to some degree they must manuever around (as they do).

You have experienced the kind of health care to which we may soon be exposed. I pray we as Americans heed the warnings of doctors, nurses, insurance companies, etc.
