That's a chart created by House Minority Leader John Boehner. It charts the complicated bureaucracy that will be created by the Democrat's plan for health care reform. Here's how John Boehner characterized it.

If anybody thinks that all of this bureaucracy is needed to fix our health care system, I plainly disagree. What this is going to do is ration care, limit the choices that patients and doctors have and really decrease the quality of our health care system.

[Buckeye McFrog]

this chart is the most effective thing the GOP has done in a very long time. They need to start plastering this EVERYWHERE!

There’s also the little tidbit hidden on page 16 of the bill. Insurance companies would not be permitted to sell you a new policy as of the day the law came into effect. So, if you wanted to change coverage, your only choice would be to go into the government system.

do you have a link to the bill?

The arguments against universal health care:

1. It will cost too damn much, a lot more than the projected costs offered by government bureaucratic flunkies.

2. Health care will be rationed.

3. No incentives for doctors of all kinds to become doctors or to stay in the medical profession because salaries will be capped.

4. Enormous taxes for everybody in order to pay for universal health care.

5. Patients will wait months and years for care. This will especially hurt the elderly the most. The elderly will die waiting for care.

6. No guarantee illegal aliens will not be recipients of health care that American taxpayers (you and me) will pay through the nose for.

7. Government bureaucrats will determine who will receive care and who wont.

8. Health care will no longer be determined by doctors and their patients but be run by a nameless faceless government bureaucracy.

Call your congressmen. We must apply pressure. I’ve called all of mine. We have 7, the 4 republicans all said they are voting no. 2 of the dims were noncommittal, 1 said he is voting no, we will see. He is a blue dem, pro-life, however he voted no against cap and trade, so I imagine he is expected to vote yes for this monstrosity.

It is the conservative and blue dog democrats all of us must go after to ensure that they vote no on the health care bill debacle. Write, email, phone, wire them all day and night until the thing dies.
