Health Care Scorecard

So this is supposed to be health care legislation? Here's a little fact to share with your boneheaded liberal friends who are in love with this "historic" legislation:

Funding for 16,500 new IRS agents who will enforce premium payments - $10 Billion

Funding to train Doctors & Nurses who will treat patients - $0

If that doesn't open a few eyes, absolutely nothing will.

Oh, and by the way, the President, Congress and their staffs are exempted from having to participate in this new health care system. They get to keep their own.

I haven't heard that before. That clearly shows what a joke this bill. Good find Pundit.

That is absolutely amazing. That fact would make a great campaign commercial.

To deny this incongruency is foolish.

Yet this morning I had a customer in my antique shop who did just that.
He point-blank said he would rather the government "take care of him"
than give more money to bloated insurance companies.
When I also pointed out that doctors will retire & not as many will want
to be doctors to replace retirees, he pooh-poohed. Telling him that
adding 30 million illegals to the system will break it didn't phase him either.
"Illegals already use our system,
so nothing will change," he replied.

These loons will NEVER get it!

@NeeNee So instead of giving more money to bloated insurance companies, he would rather "give" (in quotes because we don't give, they "take") more money to the bloated federal government? Libs and Dems don't get that a government large enough to give you everything you need, is large enough to take it away.
