HR 3200 - the Health Care Bill...

[CaptainHaplo]

Ok - lots of arguing all over this forum over what is and isn't in it and what it means to the American people.

So - read it for yourself.

Some problems I have found already.....

Sec 102 (a) 1 (A) specifically deals with new enrollments after this starts. While the section grandfathers existing coverage - (A) limites enrollment into private insurance after the government insurance exists. Meaning you have insurance now through your employer - great. You change jobs - you are going to be limited in enrolling in your new employers plan though - you get government insurance instead!

Makes it look alot like mandated insurance through the government - unless you happen to stay with one company your entire career....

Also check out Sec 102 (c) 1 (A)
It says that no individual insurance after goverment insurance takes effect can be OFFERED.

Again - how about that choice that we get huh?

I will continue to go over the bill - but in 3 minutes of skimming the very beginning you can see that the bill itself makes it clear what the goal is - eradicate the choice of any healthcare that is not subsidized and overseen by the government.

So many people spout talking points... Well - here is the text - for those that think that this is a good thing - you better read it before you try to defend it.
