Senator Carper,

Please vote no on the Healthcare Reform bill currently in the finance committee. CBO estimates are obviously skewed since it accounts for 10 years of revenue and only 7 years of expenditures. The real cost would add tremendously to our deficit. Any way you look at it, this bill is bad for America. If you force someone to get insurance, or face a fee, you are increasing taxes on the middle class. If you don't mandate it, how will this bill not add to the deficit?

How can you expect citizens to live within there means when their own government continues to borrow more and more. Enough is enough. We got to get our spending under control.

Why not start small? Pass sensible, effective legislation that would have bi-partisan support.

Richmond , KY
