When you die, do they repossess the medical device? Save money, reuse it, it’s a rental.

One of the charges the left has against the right is that we are spreading dis-information about the bill.

Is there any way we could boil these summaries down to the most critical points, eliminate some of the repetition, and quote straight from the bill?

I could really use this info for a video i’m doing.

i.e. page 10, line 6: “actual text”, followed by summary (translation)

Usually, I just hand them a copy of the pdf (either on line or in person) and tell them they can look up the references. Every one of these items can be easily found in the pdf. I think more of US have read this monstrosity than congress.

Worse than I thought, and I’m really cynical.

These guys have down all the heavy lifting already.

Pick out the things you think are critical, go to the bill (they’ve already done the hard work of pointing you to the right pages) and summarize it.

Seesh, you need it in pablum form?

this is absolutely sick. Sarah Palin was right: it's evil. It's totalitarian. It's beyond "audacious."

Whoever dares to float this bill is either insane, evil, or both.

How long before we can get the Dictator and his minions the hell out of the White House?

Government this, government that.

Soviet style heath care here were come!

Won’t y’all feel so secure, warm and fuzzy as you are wheeled into the operating room knowing a well trained (according to democrat government standards anyways)graduate “doctor” will be performing his very first “solo” operation on you?

Of course, don’t expect near invisible scars afterwards, government cost control will mandate that stitching be no more than 2 per inch to save on the cost of suture materials, cheaper steri-strip tape will be adequate to close the gaps, saving the government about 1 million per year. (the cost study which resulted in the implementing of this cast saving measure cost 33 million, and took a year, but that is a different departments budget).

And make sure a family member brings you something to serve as crutches when you are released. Crutches supplied while in the hospital stay in the hospital. Go buy your own.

>>> Usually, I just hand them a copy of the pdf (either on line or in person) and tell them they can look up the references.

I have a copy now, and i’m looking at the first point from the first summary....

Page 22 does not mandate audits.... let alone ALL self insuring employers.

It does talk about a study that gathers information (which may be an indirect “hint” that some companies may be audited to get the info. But the words “Audit” or “Mandate” does not occur.

At the end of page 22, and into 23 is where the results of the study will be used to “Make Recommendations” to ensure that incentives for self-insuring does not exist.

Help me out here... what am I missing?
