    Transformation of America

     

    Pelosi's $940B Health legislation will cost much more base on historical outcomes in all other major programs. Even the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) couldn't figure out the Democrats creative math. To address concerns of House Democrats, those subsidies were raised by an estimated $25 billion over a decade in the package of changes offered Thursday. Although the Democratic Congress leaders stated that they would clean up the special deal giving items from their Health Bill, it seems that this again was simply a typical untruthful tactic. For example AP and Fox News (March 17, 2010) found the following hidden items in the current House Health Bill:

    Seniors who experience a gap in coverage in the Medicare prescription drug program would receive a $250 rebate this year — an election-year bragging point for Democrats as they look toward the fall campaign with control of Congress at stake.

    At the same time, most major news networks reported that Walgreens would no longer accept the Medicare prescription drug program because it was too expensive for them to continue supporting this program. At the same time, currently in an order to pass this health hill, $400B was taken away from Medicare including 21% cut in the Medicare prescription drug program.

    Already, many hospitals and private doctors no longer take Medicare for the same reason (i.e., does not cover their basic costs).

    A special deal giving extra Medicaid money to Nebraska was struck in exchange for more Medicaid money for all states, though other special deals decried by Obama stayed in the bill. Earlier Pelosi stated that this option would be removed.

    In the same manner that FDR wanted to convert America prior to his death, this current Health Bill strangely is also a Health and Education Bill or 1/6th of Obama (reported by Fox News, March 17, 2010 – Obama speech) longer term plan to convert America in the duplicate process as FDRs plan.

    The US Government will control who goes to college. The US Government will set the selection criteria for those that go to college and those that will receive financial government help (note: will be the only option allowed – who goes to college).

    Just like SEIU President Stern stated, unions will receive free medical coverage and will most likely be part of the education execution program.
