Guest guest Posted July 29, 2009 Report Share Posted July 29, 2009 It gives the impression that it would be a disaster to have a government run health programme like we have in Britain when, in fact, we have an excellent system. We do not pay for doctor's appointments or visits, consultant appointments, surgery, blood tests, scans, etc. Very few people pay for prescriptions and the only payment I have to make is to a dentist. On the other hand, there is private insurance for those who want it and can afford it. > > > > > This is really important and why I am forwarding it to everyone. Please take a moment to sign this.

Guest guest Posted July 29, 2009 Report Share Posted July 29, 2009 But this system (page 16 of the bill) will make it illegal to have private insurance. Once the government bill goes into effect it is illegal for anyone to enroll (or for an insurance company to contract with an individual) for a new health insurance policy. You can keep insurance at your current employer as long as you are there but if you leave the employment of this company and move to another you may not enroll in this program's policy and you cannot take out a personal plan. You will then have to enroll in government insurance or pay a penalty based on a % of your income for non coverage in a health care program. That is the problem. There are many more issues. Maybe you are happy with your healthcare system but the one they are trying to put into place here is a train wreck. Re: Free American Health Care NOW!

Guest guest Posted July 29, 2009 Report Share Posted July 29, 2009 Uh, someone is paying..like the taxpayers. I have no interest in paying for mine, every retiree, every illegal alien. I also, have no interest in the US gov't having access to my bank accounts. I have no interest in allopathic horrific nightmare care. I have read, I will not be able to pay for a Dr. myself. I have no interest in death counseling after I reach a certain age, every 5 years. I have no interest in forced vaccines or drugs. Not in a "free" country. No. This is fascism. See, this takeover is compeletly different than your system.

Guest guest Posted July 30, 2009 Report Share Posted July 30, 2009 There are 46 Million Americans (over 9 million children) uninsured in America. Of the uninsured 8 out of 10 are in working families. The wealthy have what they want, the poorest have Medicaid and the Middle Class are the most uninsured. 1.Every single family in the Housing Projects in our city has Medical Coverage (Welfare). We have been carrying Welfare recipients and under the Current Program will continue t o do so and this is why a Tylenol tablet cost $6.00 in the hospital. The Wealthy and the Poorest are sure to be covered, the Working Middle Class are suffering without Health Care under the present system most. The medical system in America is broken! Administration gets up to 70% on a dollar. Insurance Companies are out of control. A friend of mine is a Neurosurgeon, he won't give a break to anyone in administration. My daughter worked 5 years in Pediatric ICU all the Welfare got covered completely, all the fully Insured got what they need. It was the working class families that could not get test, treatments even surgery that their child needed. Often a Church group tried to raise money to save a child's life. USA has a broken Medical System controlled by Lobbyist, Drug Companies and Insurance Co's (backed by Politics). When these Companies are on the Stock Market then Greed takes precedent over CARE. I have relatives in Nova Scotia with Fine Health Care and I've stayed in Italy and Germany where my friends get Excellent Health Care! The Drs there deal with keeping people WELL. The Apothecary in Germany where Drs send clients was full of vitamins and herbs not controlled by the drug companies. The Health Care System in America is BROKEN and is crumbling. Soon everyone will be scrambling and scrounging under it's collapse, just like the collapse of Wall Street's investment banking giants. If we kept Government out of THAT we would be in World Crisis according to every expert in ever country. The last 40 yrs Capitalism has grown out of control (even Prisons are run by Private Companies on Wall St) Hospitals, Insurance Companies (who are freaking out right now because they rake in more than the medical Profession) and Drug Companies need to be revamped as the Banking System. 2. The Bill is not even Finished!! Politics is controlling the push to stop the Bill before it is even Finished. No ONE knows what it will mean for who yet! There are over 1,000 pages in the first draft that even the Politicians have not read yet. The propaganda machine and fear mongers are out in full force! Depending on if you watch FOX NEWS or CNN as to even what Universal Health Care will mean in America; the MISinformation has already been swirling! > > This is really important and why I am forwarding it to everyone.

Guest guest Posted July 30, 2009 Report Share Posted July 30, 2009 (off iodine, but important) You make NO mention WHO pays for Great Britians 'govt run healthcare program'. In the US our taxes too will skyrocket!!! AND YES you (or others do who work) pay for all the services you list below! You are just MANDATED to pay via taxation. As we all will be here in this country. Is this is lieu of the medicare taxes I pay now out of my check? lol...I highly doubt that... I lose 1/3rd of my paycheck each pay for taxes and my OWN insurance. Now, living in a socially run healthcare system I will be lucky to live on 1/3rd of my pay. I work in healthcare....NOONE is turned down where I work. And there are many hospitals across this country who operate similarly. We don't get paid often times for these services...just as when the govt takes over (and when does ANYTHING the govt do run smoothly, efficiently and cost effectively?) what the govt will be willing to pay will put many a healthcare provider at such a status as to lower ALL our living. WHY can't the govt fix its own run Medicare/medicaid now? LOL... There is NO free lunch.

Guest guest Posted July 30, 2009 Report Share Posted July 30, 2009 but no one is saying don't offer the people that need healthcare a govt. run program - we are just saying don't make EVERYONE fall into it - the way they are going right now, it will be mandated across the board if you, for any reason, lose the coverage you hold now with your company.

He addressed the various issues with ADDING another OPTION to the CURRENT Health Care Insurance Plans. The following Statements on the link you asked us to sign are INCORRECT. *Choice: I support the right to choose my own Dr and to Choose a Health Insurance Plan That Fits my family's needs and Budget. Everyone will have a Choice they can KEEP their Current Plan if they want to. *Access: I want to get the treatment I need, when I need it, without delay or denial and I want my health care to be patient-centered rather than government. EVERYONE can KEEP Their Plan if they Want to! If your happy with your Health care Insurance plan then KEEP IT! No one is taking away YOUR Plan. This program is for UNINSURED in USA. The next statement is asking for what we do not even have now. The last statement about Fraud and Waste is a JOKE considering what is going on NOW with the Insurance Companies AND some Drs. People do not even know what the plan will be and they put up a petition like this Inaccurate, Misleading and asking for what we do not even have now. This is pure Politics because the Bill is not even done! I am surprised at you Stephine who is always telling people to 'stay on iodine' not to go OT then you ask us to sign this Politically Created Statement to reject Health Care for the UNinsured.

Guest guest Posted July 30, 2009 Report Share Posted July 30, 2009 My comments below. The info is in the "terminology". Re: Free American Health Care NOW! Who read all 1,000 pages? I listened to President Obama as he spoke yesterday here at a local School. He addressed the various issues with ADDING another OPTION to the CURRENT Health Care Insurance Plans. Yes you can keep the plan that you have when the bill goes into effect but you will not be able to change to another insurance company - it is stay with this plan for life or go on the government plan. That is not freedome to me. I should be able to opt to stay in the private industry and not have only one plan that I can be on.The following Statements on the link you asked us to sign are INCORRECT.*Choice: I support the right to choose my own Dr and to Choose a Health Insurance Plan That Fits my family's needs and Budget.Everyone will have a Choice they can KEEP their Current Plan if they want to. Again, there is no choice if I am employer insured and choose to leave their employment. I will then have to go on government healthcare. The terminology is sketchy in the current bill making it unclear if there will be new enrollments allowed if you go to a new company with an employer provided program. Right now there is no question. I can choose wheather or not I want insurance. It will be force on me under the new bill. *Access: I want to get the treatment I need, when I need it, without delay or denial and I want my health care to be patient-centered rather than government.EVERYONE can KEEP Their Plan if they Want to! If your happy with your Health care Insurance plan then KEEP IT! No one is taking away YOUR Plan. YEAH I can keep it - only as long as my employer decides it is cost beneficial. The private insurance will not be able to compete with the government low cost programs. Just staying in business with all the other taxations is hard right now so how many businesses will opt to pay a penalty as an alternative to providing insurance for employees. I know that my husband's company pays $1,000 per month for our family. They pay $500 for individuals. There are probably some that don't take out the insurance but this is a HUGE hit to the bottom line for the company. So there is a fear that many companies will dump their insurance as a benefit. This scares me - I will have no choice at this point but to go on government insurance (NO CHOICE THERE) or pay the penalty becuase I will not be allowed to go out and get a private insurance policy for my family and pay for it. Plus I have a cancer history so what "pool" will I be put into in the government program? This program is for UNINSURED in USA. So give it to them but I don't want to change my program nor do I want to pay for anyone elses. The next statement is asking for what we do not even have now. The last statement about Fraud and Waste is a JOKE considering what is going on NOW with the Insurance Companies AND some Drs. It is on the heels of the fraud and waste that has occured with the stimulus (porkulous) bill. WE HAD to get it in place or unemployement would rise. Well guess what? It did rise and the enconomy is in the dumper and more losing jobs daily. We now are so in debt that there is no way we will dig out. When my family has financial issues we don't spend to get out of it, we save, tighten our belts and do without. But apparently the government doesn't have to play by those rules. They just take it away from those of us doing the best we can to stay equal so the whole US can sink into a mediocre level. That's not what the US was founded on and the only way to get things moving is to let the people who invest in companies and are innovative to do it and not tax the ever living & ( & ( & *# & out of them. The mindset of American's thinking they get something for nothing and it's all owed to them is what is the Joke here.People do not even know what the plan will be and they put up a petition like this Inaccurate, Misleading and asking for what we do not even have now. This is pure Politics because the Bill is not even done! Yep thank God its not done. It is still in progress. It is not time to scream about it after it is done but while it is in process. Cause when it's done it is too late.I am surprised at you Stephine who is always telling people to 'stay on iodine' not to go OT then you ask us to sign this Politically Created Statement to reject Health Care for the UNinsured. Y'all can keep your plan no one is taking it away from people with Insurance! Are you willing to personally guarantee that I will never have to go on the government plan and that I can be privately insured for the rest of my life as long as I pay for it? Because I read as do many intellegent lawyers that once you lose private insurance you are on the government plan for the rest of life. I allow it because never before has there been an issue that so severely risks the rights of persons to continue to utilize the natural methods promoted here. If you think I am over reacting then that's up to you but I pray to God that we never see a national healthcare system becuase it will be a disaster. End of life counseling every 5 years once you get to a certain age? What's that about - that's only one thing buried in the bill. You can keep this iodine board too. Politics (especially propaganda) & iodine do not mix. Well, like it or not. This is my board and I am allowing this topic to continue discussion. This is not about propoganda. It is about truth and reality. It is about wanting all things equal in the US. I am training my children that life is not fair and that some will have more than they do and that is the way it is. If you want something that others have then you work harder to get it. You don't expect it to be given to you. A historical man - I believe it was Jefferson (I paraphrase) but he stated that 'when the people figure out that they can vote themselves money that will be the beginning of the end'. That's exactly what has happened. People elect officials to the government to give them things they don't have. I elect people to protect my rights to continue doing the things I believe in. I want nothing from them but what the government was designed to do for me. According to the Declaration of Independence, the purpose of the government is to secure natural rights for the people.

Guest guest Posted July 30, 2009 Report Share Posted July 30, 2009 By seeing people's comments to this topic, it is very easy to spot who is a Republican and who is a Democrat, so that makes it a political discussion. The Republican's are spouting what other Republicans have said and the Democrats are spouting what Democrats have said. Few people who have responded are free thinkers. Bottom line is that THERE IS NOT A BILL yet. If you have issues, talk to your Representative and let them know what you want. That probably won't change anything, because they all do what they want to anyway and follow their party line, but it is the only way to even hope to change anything. Arguing about it here is not going to solve anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
