Health Care Bill pending

October 29, 2009

Again, I wish to express my concerns about the Health Care Bill. What, honestly and factually, will the passge of this bill, in whatever form it finishes out to be -- what will it do to the National Debt. The enormous National Debt we already have, plus the predicted deficts we are seeing for years to come -- this should have been our main order of business to begin with. The Health Care Bill beside the National Debt is like a mouse beside an elephant.
This talk coming our of Washington that by balancing a thing here and there, and cutting a cost over here, we will have a bigger Health Coverage across the board at no added costs -- please allow me some room for having some sense. I don't believe that, and I haven't talked to a single person who does believe that. Most of us are alarmed at the looming cost figures of yet another government program.
I go on record as one who applauds Senator Joe Lieberman. The final stand he will take on the Health Care Bill is what it will do to the National Debt. There is the meat and potatoes of the matter, and I will close with that.
