October 30, 2009

According to the latest version of "Pelosi's" healthcare reform from hell, there will be a Health Benefits Advisory Committee established.

I have a problem with this:
"The Health Benefits Advisory Committee to recommend covered benefits and essential, enhanced, and premium plans". [111: Sec. 223] A "private-public advisory committee", they call it. I don't need anyone's recommendation for my needs, especially from government leaders.

Another problem I see: [this committee] "shall allow for public input as a part of developing recommendations under this subsection". What? Public input is ignored now.

The worst part: The committee members will be appointed by the President. Looking at his appointees so far to his administration (czars or whatever), this is NOT a good idea. NO NO NO! I cannot trust anyone appointed by this president. In fact, it is getting more difficult to trust most of the congressional denizens.

Will the committee also make decisions on "Abortion Services"? [110:(paragraphs 4A&4B)] Also a big problem.

I am still reading this monstrosity of a bill. What I've seen so far, it's GOVERNMENT TAKEOVER! Please do what you can to stop it.

Thank you.
