Taking our health, insuring no wealth, and other concerns

To pass the Health Care Bill which now sits before congress, would fundamentally change America to a Socialist State. We will lose freedoms. A few points:


-This bill would, for the first time in America's history, allow for taxerpayer-funded abortions.

-This bill will force most Americans into a government-run program. If you refuse the program, you will have to pay a penalty to the IRS for not taking the insurance.

-This bill would raise the average top tax rate to 52%, which would put us above the top tax rates of many European countries.

- The congressional budget office estimates the program costing 1.3 Trillion dollars over the next ten years. Who knows what the cost will be beyond that time frame.

- Obama recently promised if this bill would add even 1 cent to deficit, he won't sign it. Just another lie from a man who has done nothing but lie since he was put on the ticket. All evidence shows this will add billions, if not trillions, to the deficit.

- Obama says his program is going to save us money, yet congress is considering raising $591 Billion in new taxes to curb the cost of the program, including a surtax of up to 5.4% on individuals making over $250,000, or houshoulds making more than $350,000.

- Businesses with payrolls over $250,000 will be forced to provide insurance for employess. If not, they will have to pay an 8% tax penalty. This will lead to lower wages, and fewer jobs.

- If this bill is passed, the government will take almost half (46.4%) of every dollar earned by small businesses.

- The politicians writing the bill, have written in an exemption for themselves. They will have a seperate program from the rest of america. What is their stake in it?

Regardless of what people think, this is the greatest healthcare system in the world. It has it's faults, but it is the best system which exists in the world today. We do not want to make the same mistakes European countries have made in socializing medicine. We do that, and we lose a significant piece of our freedom.

We, as citizens, cannot allow a man who has appointed 27 CZARS to continue to accrue power in the form of these outrageous, unconstitutional, and un-american bills. Call the blue dog democrats, call your local reps. Tell them to vote no on this atrocity.

Call Congress and tell them NO
