House Democrats reached agreement Wednesday on key elements of a health care bill that would vastly alter America's medical landscape, requiring virtually universal sign-ups and establishing a new government-run insurance option for millions.Never mind that polls show Americans don't want this crap sandwich, nor can our economy sustain this massive government growth or that Seasoned Citizens on Medicare will have their benefits cut.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi planned a formal announcement Thursday morning in front of the Capitol. Lawmakers said the legislation could be up for a vote on the House floor next week.
...The final product in the House, reflecting many of President Barack Obama's priorities, includes new requirements for employers to offer insurance to their workers or face penalties, fines on Americans who don't purchase coverage and subsidies to help lower-income people do so. Insurance companies would face new prohibitions against charging much more to older people or denying coverage to people with health conditions.
Pelosi has also said the bill would strip the health insurance industry of a long-standing exemption from antitrust laws covering market allocation, price fixing and bid rigging.
The price tag, topping $1 trillion over 10 years, would be paid for by taxing high-income people and cutting some $500 billion in payments to Medicare providers. The legislation would extend health coverage to around 95 percent of Americans.
This isn't about insuring the uninsured, as the liberals claim. It is about government gaining more power over the individual, forcing them into government socialized medicine.
Now is the time for us to fight and KILL THIS BILL! Call your Congressperson and say "No" to socialized medicine.

...showing the deception the media has all but ignored by the Democrats and Obama to bring forward socialized medicine.
