Subject:
Health Care Reform
To: Sen. Charles Schumer
November 2, 2009
After reading parts of the HealthCare Bill, I was completely outranged by its contents. This bill is full of misconceptions, and in many parts is totally unconstitutional. It is a bill for socialized medicine for America. This bill is trying to be ramped through Congress without the American people or any member of Congress knowing exactly what is in this bill. How can the Congress vote to socialize our healthcare which has not been successful in any other country in which it is used? It is fine if you are well but if you need care it would be rationed. Another false statement from President Obama "If you like your current health care plan, you can keep it". Yet on page 92 of the Bill, you would be forced to buy health care insurance from the government. How successful has the government been in running anything? Section 3033 (6) page 683 controls doctors fees by cutting their reimbursement if they give older patients more care than the government deems appropriate. This bill would also slash $500 billon from future Medicare claims. You don't have to be a genius to know what this means. No care for our elderly. I would like to know if members of congress, once reaching the age of 65, are required to have Medicare as their Prime Insurance? If not, why not. If it is good for the American elderly, it should be good for the members of congress. In any section I don't see any reference to controlling mal-practice claims which could save billions of dollars. All the policies, such as health care reform, global warming, cap and trade, will not help our economy but will only lead to future unemployment, higher taxes and additional hardships to the American people. Are you willing to gamble the sovereignty of our country? PLEASE HAVE THE COURAGE TO VOTE NO FOR THIS LEGISLATION - VOTE FOR THE PEOPLE YOU REPRESENT.
