Is the biggest U.S. tax increase just around the corner?
October 13, 2009 3 Comments
I seen a few minutes ago the Senate committee has pushed through a health care plan. From what i know they didn’t even have a bill all typed out to even read. This is just wonderful hell they don’t even need bills they just make stuff up now. Why has congress got this far off track? Why are the people allowing this kind of idiotic stuff to be pushed upon them ? If you people don’t do something about this in the next election and vote out morons who voted on bills they don’t even read let alone don’t even have written. If they can pass on bills thats not even written then its a matter of time before something is on Obama’s desk that will make all the illegals here legal citizens. I can almost see some gun bill get snuck through as well. Because now they know they can put bills through with not only not read but not even completely written out for anyone to even see. It won’t be long til we see the biggest tax increase this country has ever seen. If you think you don’t bring home enough money out of your check now wait til this kicks in. This will have to happen to start paying for this massive bill. The tax increases will start alot sooner than the health care will. And why does Obama want this to kick in after he would be done with a second term if he even gets one in 2013? I do not think this will solve the health care problems in this country but only make them worse. For one if the cost of a family of 4 for premiums would be more than taking a government fine would be so what would you do? I think i would drop my insurance plan and take the $1000 dollar fine the figure i have heard thrown out there. Then according to Obamacare the insurance would have to cover you if you have a pre-existing condition so when you come down with something you simply sign up for the health care and your covered at the cost of everyone else. If there isn’t some sort of manditory insurance of some type that makes everyone have to have either a private or government plan i can’t see how this will make it better. You would see alot of healthy people who would simply take the fine til they come down with something. The other side of the coin is now we will make billions of cuts to medicare or i’m bad Savings thats right they will call it savings not cuts. So just how you do that? I can see grandma being told sorry you are not going to get that knee replacement or hip. If you don’t have the cash to do it yourself you would be turned down plain and simple. Then there is things that can be done to make cuts and cut out fraud. This is something that needed to be done along time ago. As medicare fraud and over charging has been running wild for many decades. I think it would better to fix the things that are wrong with our health care instead of overhauling it and turning it upside down. Are we going to make doctors government employees? If we do you will see alot of these doctors simply quit. They did in Canada you will not see to many brain surgeons or heart surgeons who would be willing to be paid the same amount as a a nose throat and ear doctor. When loads of doctors and specialists quit then the wait time to get into these doctors will increase as it has in Canada and the wait time to get surgery done will be pushed back as well. I guess we will have to wait and see on that. I’m glad Obama thinks we all have tons of extra cash burning holes in our wallets. I for one sure don’t have the extra money to be paying increased taxes on about everything. And alot of Americans are in the same boat a sinking one and we cant bail the water out fast enough.
You wondered, “The other side of the coin is now we will make billions of cuts to medicare . . . So just how you do that?”
I heard Howard Dean discuss that. He said his mother needed a wheel chair which he could have bought for $300. However she could get it free from Medicare . . . .which would pay $1200 for it.
Don’t you think such excessive prices should be curtailed? That’s a cut to Medicare spending.
I said in my post that medicare fraud and over charging is something that needed curbed along time ago didnt you read that ? Im just feeling pretty sure that wont be the squeeky wheel getting the grease for the simple fact Obama cant be truthful in his presentation of the facts in the first place. I want to read the ACTUAL health care bill and whats in it first before i take his word on it. I read most of the HR3200 bill. I still feel theres ways to fix whats broken before you do this complete overhaul where everyone will be paying huge premiums and more taxes. When Obama is done we will see how happy you are. I don’t know to many people who could live on half their current paycheck. But by god you will have a health care card ! and then will have to wait to get in to see the doctor. I have about a week wait now to get in to see my own family doctor now and i live in a small community of 500. So how should i deal with that ? Ok im gonna get sick 10 days from now so i better call now ? How the hell do i know if im gonna get sick then ? Way it is now if i get sick by time i get in to see my doctor i have got a couple determinations i will either be better or sicker or dead.Add into the system more people as they claim up to 47 million and you will see wait times pushed back even farther to get in to see a doctor.
Oh yeah and Howard Dean is god and has answers to everything Yowwwwwwwwwllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll ! I won’t contribute to the Variety club of Iowa because of what i experienced.I watched them put a price tag of $1600 in a wheel chair on their tv telethon. One you had to push it had those black plastic mags as i call them but nothing fancy and said lets take phone calls and pay for this chair right now. I asked a guy who sold Capers Weeklys for veterans and he had a medical order catalog and the same wheel chair in it cost only $400 So if thats true who got the other $1200.00? Or did they purchase 3 more wheel chairs? We wont find out about that. That i highly doubt most likely someone pocketed some bucks at the expense of people giving donations to this organization out of the kindness of their hearts. Corruption and ripping off the system is something that needs stopped. Are you 100% sure they will not deny care to seniors citizens? Im not. Specially when the word they wont will be coming from the government.
