October 29, 2009

The Democrats' legislation has "over 50 new mandates, bureaucracies, tax hikes, commissions -- All of this is going to require tens of thousands of new federal employees, which is fairly designed for a government takeover of our health care system not to mention the exorbitant cost of all those new governmental entities. This piece of garbage will create more government jobs, more bureaucracy. include a public option, and will cost taxpayers billions! This is not reform this is a blatant power grab by the government that wishes to enslave it's people. Not only will it cost more than the estimates, it will also ration health care, deny treatment, and ultimately be responsible for numerous deaths!
