Health Care Bill, Debunkage + VIDEO: Pence busted for trillion dollar lie!

By GottaLaff



My longtime blogger/Twitter friend Karoli has linked me to two wonderful sites. She has spent an enormous amount of time and effort to support health care reform, as you can see by following the links.

Karoli and Co. are the debunkers in chief. Here's who they are debunking:

Since Congress doesn’t want to read the Health Care Bill and Obama, ACORN, Unions, Lawyers, & Special Interest Groups don’t want you to know whats in this monstrosity, I decided to do it myself. I’ve taken all my tweets on the HC bill and put them into one single place for your enjoyment. Additionally here is the link to the full bill – Health Care Bill [...]

Enjoy and remember – the President & Congress are YOUR servants, not the other way around.

PG 1018 States give up some of their State Sovereignty.

PG 1003 9-11 National Med Dev Reg ‘‘(iii) other postmarket device surveillance activities” U WILL b tracked.

PG 1001 The Govt will establish a National Medical Device Registry. Will u be tracked?

PG 994 School Based Health Clinic will be integrated into the school environment. Say GOVT Brainwash! [...]

g 30 Sec 123 of HC bill – THERE WILL BE A GOVT COMMITTEE that decides what treatments/benes u get.

PG 24 Sec 116 of HC bill Govt effectively sets prices for ALL private health plans. WTF!!!!

Pg 22 of the HC Bill MANDATES the Govt will audit books of ALL EMPLOYERS that self insure!! WTF!!

That was just a nibble.

Now for a few excerpts from Health Care Reform Myths, who worked hand in hand with Karoli:

Canada, et al

  • We will have long wait times for healthcare services if we end up with a public option.
    • Fact This doesn't even make sense. Are we suddenly going to have a shortage of doctors? Is everyone going to make a mad rush to the physician's office? This is usually tied to an anecdotal report from Canada. The reality is that wait times vary from area to area, as well as from service to service in Canada, but it's rarely as bad as reported.

  • Government Control

    There will be a Government Committee that decides what treatments and benefits you get.
    • MythThere will be a Government Committee that decides what treatments and benefits you get.

      Fact Referencing Pg 30, Sec 123 of HR 3200, from Viral Emails
      This section refers to the creation of an advisory panel for purposes of determining standards for the minimum, intermediate, and premium benefits packages. One of the most common myths out there is that benefits/treatments/etc will somehow be "rationed" by the government. In fact, the idea behind this commission is to bring together the different actors who are involved in provision of treatments and benefits to determine what should be deemed a "basic" benefit and what should fall into other tiers. Again, this section simply creates a panel who gives recommendations to the Secretary of HHS. Ref.US Health CrisisSee page 30 of bill below
