The Obamacare Abomination

By Alan Caruba

Not long ago I published a list of elements of the original Obamacare bill that upset a lot of people who accused me of publishing lies about it, but the original bill—now something in the area of five different versions that the Senate and House will consider on their return—was every bit an abomination as the new ones.

Since then, a lot more people have undertaken the trial of reading the more than 1,000 pages intended, we’re told, to “reform” healthcare in America. One of them is Dr. Stephen Fraser. He recently wrote his Senator Evan Bayh (D) citing page by page why the current version of Obamacare is not a reform, but a total corruption of our current system.

Here are just a few of four pages of citations that will doom healthcare in America while putting the federal government in charge of the most intimate aspects of everyone’s lives.

Page 22 of the HC Bill: Mandates that the government will audit books of all employers that self insure!!

Page 30 Sec 123 of HC bill: THERE WILL BE A GOVERNMENT COMMITTEE that decides what treatments/benefits you get.

Page 29 lines 4-16 in the HC bill: YOUR HEALTH CARE IS RATIONED!!!

Page 42 of HC Bill: The Health Choices Commissioner will choose your HCBenefits for you. You have no choice!

Page 50 Section 152 in HC bill: HC will be provided to ALL non US citizens, illegal or otherwise.

Page 58 HC Bill: Government will have real-time access to individual’s finances & a National ID Healthcard will be issued!

Page 59 HC Bill lines 21-24: Government will have direct access to your bank accounts for elective funds transfer.

Page 65 Sec 164: is a payoff subsidized plan for retirees and their families in unions & community organizations: (ACORN).

Page 84 Sec 203 HC bill: Government mandates ALL benefit packages for private HCplans in the Exchange.

Page 85 Line 7 HC Bill: Specifications for of Benefit Levels for Plans = theGovernment will ration your healthcare!

Page 91 Lines 4-7 HC Bill: Government mandates linguistic appropriate services. Translation: illegal aliens.

Page 95 HC Bill Lines 8-18: The government will use groups i.e., ACORN & Americorps to sign up individuals for government HC plan.

Page 85 Line 7 HC Bill: Specifications of Benefit Levels for Plans. AARP members, your health care WILL be rationed.

Page 102 Lines 12-18 HC Bill: Medicaid Eligible Individuals will be automatically enrolled in Medicaid. No choice.

Page 124 lines 24-25 HC: No company can sue the GOVERNMENT on price fixing. No"judicial review" against Government Monopoly.

Page 127 Lines 1-16 HC Bill: Doctors/ American Medical Association - The Government will tell YOU what you can make! (salary)

Page 145 Line 15-17: An Employer MUST auto enroll employees into public option plan. NO CHOICE!

Page 126 Lines 22-25: Employers MUST pay for HC for part time employees AND their families.

Page 149 Lines 16-24: ANY Employer with payroll 401k and above who does not provide public option pays 8% tax on all payroll.

Page 150 Lines 9-13: Business's with payroll between 251k & 401k who doesn't provide public option pays 2-6% tax on all payroll.

Page 167 Lines 18-23: ANY individual who doesn't have acceptable HC according to the government will be taxed 2.5% of income.

Page 170 Lines 1-3 HC Bill: Any NON-RESIDENT Alien is exempt from individual taxes. (Americans will pay)

Page 195 HC Bill: Officers & employees of HC Admin (GOVERNMENT) will have access to ALL Americans finances /personal records.

Page 203 Line 14-15 HC: "The tax imposed under this section shall not be treated as tax" Yes, it says that!

Page 239 Line 14-24 HC Bill: Government will reduce physician services forMedicaid Seniors, low income, and poor are affected.

Page 241 Line 6-8 HC Bill: Doctors, doesn't matter what specialty you have, you'll all be paid the same!

Page 253 Line 10-18: Government sets value of Doctor's time, profession, judgment, etc. Literally the value of humans.

There are three more pages of this line-by-line analysis and all of them represent the worst aspects of a communist system of healthcare with horrendous invasions of the privacy of all Americans.

So, when ordinary Americans show up to protest this vile imposition of enslavement by the government, they are called “mobs” and “un-American” by the DEMOCRATS that want to impose this monstrosity on us.

This bill must be killed.

These Democrats must be replaced in the 2010 midterm elections.

This President must be resisted every day of those remaining in his term.

Page 50 Section 152 in HC bill: HC will be provided to ALL non US citizens, illegal or otherwise....

THAT clause ALONE is all I need to fight this bill with every bone in my body. Just exactly where in our Constitution is the government given the power or authority to take my money, and give it to an illegal alien, a legal alien, or anyone else for that matter? This madness has GOT to stop.

It looks to me, that he has already formed a corp to control Americans and that right under our noses and we are paying for it.
This is an Obama Quote that I find very troubling.
We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded.
What does that mean? The brown shirts, gestapo or the secret police?
If you don't believe the real Obamanation is a socialist commie.
Look at this quote.
This is the moment when we must build on the wealth that open markets have created, and share its benefits more equitably. Trade has been a cornerstone of our growth and global development. But we will not be able to sustain this growth if it favors the few, and not the many.
If you have read any articles by Marx, Mao or Lenin you will see the same quote.
"Out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks".
Of course these idiots who worship the "obamanation" will try to spin it instead of waking up to a fact that this man has absolutely no good intentions for America.

Apparently the worshippers are sneaking out of the Church of Obama. As of today, his approval rating is 47% and still falling like a stone.

He's not going to talk himself out of this because everytime he does talk, he poll numbers drop.

I,for one, am loving it.

I've downloaded this bill and am reading it, as I have been reading the others. Although the fancy lawyer lingo is hard to deal with after a while, I'm not stupid enough to figure out what the bills are saying. As you said- this bill (or any others as far as I'm concerned) Must be killed. Oh! Will I get into trouble with the govment for saying "kill the bill!" ? I asked my husband the other night, "Honey, when the govment comes and takes me away to put me in one of the re education/homegrown terrorist internment camps, will you write to me?" He loves me so much! He told me he'd come with me! :-) God bless you Mr. Caruba

Everyone keeps talking about Orwell's "1984", when what everyone should be reading is Orwell's, "Animal Farm". The parallels are amazing.
