This is scary!!! It's all terrifying but page 59 and 425, and 427-430 is unbelievable! Here are a few of the items that are downright unconstitutional.
• Page 22: Mandates audits of all employers that self-insure! • Page 29: Admission: your health care will be rationed! • Page 30: A government committee will decide what treatments and benefits you get (and, unlike an insurer, there will be no appeals process) • Page 42: The "Health Choices Commissioner" will decide health benefits for you.

Here’s a question: “How are temporary employees classified? Do they buy their own insurance or does the company they temporarily work AT or the temporary agency?
I can see a big opportunity for employee leasing.
This will destroy the Democratic Party.
It is unbelievable that such a horrendous bill is even under consideration in our country’s Congress.
They wanted to shove it down our throats so fast we wouldn’t know what hit us....but thanks to the internet.....anybody with any sense can read the bill and find out just with the use of common sense that what’s in it is a true HORROR STORY!
That is why Americans by the thousands have turned out at these Town Hall Meetings and that is why Zero’s approval ratings are going down into the toilet.
And - after reading this line - no wonder the Union thug goons are out there doing Obama and Emmanuel’s bidding:
• Page 65: Taxpayers will subsidize all union retiree and community organizer health plans (read: SEIU, UAW and ACORN)
Well, no matter what they do, Americans are NOT going to shut up about this travesty of a bill.
....nearing the critical mass....

James Hooker, not quite 2 minutes...
My wife and are are early 60s. We worked hard and we have insurance and supplemental insurance. This bill is genocide for my generation. It is the systematic denial of TREATMENT. We don’t want our money paying for abortions or illegal aliens but when it comes to denial of treatment because we are too old, we are ready to fight. Please join us. No more Mr. Nice guy. We are pissed.

Beautifully done. Thank you for your work. I’m ready.
Thanks!
Thank you very much. I’m emailing the list to friends.
I really appreciate the work you did to put this together.
A lot of people will exit the medical field rather than put up with the harassment.
Off topic... All credit to Mr. Hooker, a talented patriot. I just pointed the way. Also see his tribute to American fighting men & women,

Is this the right bill?

Is something else going on right now which all this healthcare ruckus might be diverting our attention?
Ok, posted before I saw the PDF link. Thanks for sourcing!

Kinda makes me wish that in most cases, any bill that goes the floor would be made public with bells and whistles and easy to find links... as well as a waiting period, so we the people can read through them, since our representatives refuse to do that job for us.
...man I hate lawyer speak. *dives in*
I apologize to anyone I may have offended with my post.
Sometimes when I see how far my world had fallen, all I can do is state the name of my Lord.
I know I’m not supposed to, but I can’t help it.
