Guest guest Posted August 10, 2009 Report Share Posted August 10, 2009 The Health Care that you will get .... like it or not!

Guest guest Posted August 10, 2009 Report Share Posted August 10, 2009 Please read the actual bill. (if you can find it! See below). Don't stop with the interpretation offered. It is someone's opinion, you don't know who, or why they believe this. Some of the interpretations from the " public " are actually front organizations paid for and organized by the insurance companies themselves. Some may be legitimate. Can you tell the difference? Again, read the original documents for yourself and make up your own mind. See if you agree or disagree with the " opinion " of the sender. I have received this and similar lists over a dozen times recently, none of which identify the source of the opinions. Instead, they offer it as an obvious conclusion which any good American would automatically reject. 1. They set us up by saying it is written in legalese designed to confuse and it is long, over 1000 pages. So they help us out by offering a simple bullet point interpretation of each. When read as " someone " has written it I'm appalled! But wait, is that actually what HR3200 says? 2. If you Google HR3200 you will see it is posted on many sites. They don't all carry the same date!!! Some of the downloaded HR 3200 Bill identifies it as the 109th Congress, July 11, 2005 and others carry the 111th Congress with a date of July 14, 2009, for example. One carries a certification notice which looks official but I've never seen it on other official government documents. Is it a scam like the PayPal and eBay notifications? or like the false notices from your bank? Finally, this is a Bill in progress. It is not final. There are other House versions and the Senate has theirs. Once one is approved by each, it will go to a conference committee. Despite those checks and balances, let your Congressmen know how you feel. Just make sure you are talking about what is real and not made up " stuff " by someone who has their own best interest in mind - at your expense. We need to be very careful or we'll get even more of what is hurting us.

Guest guest Posted August 10, 2009 Report Share Posted August 10, 2009 I think the public is reading it more than those working in Washington!!!! Please read the actual bill. (if you can find it!

Guest guest Posted August 10, 2009 Report Share Posted August 10, 2009 All bills on Congress are thousands of pages long. I hear them complain all the time, but by the time EVERYONE puts in what they want, that's how long it gets. This is not unusual. Congress people have teams reading it and summarizing it for them. Some never get fully read by people voting on it. Lots of bills from previous administration and administrations before that, and committees in congress that put them together. This is their work. Life is complicated. I agree with Sharon who said though she hopes they slow down and get it right and not be in a rush for such an important thing. " Summaries " , like one below, should not be considered legitimate since source is unknown. > > > The Health Care that you will get > ... like it or not! > The government prepared a > legalese nightmare designed to make it difficult for the general voting > population to understand what is being proposed. It is by design to make it confusing and > deter you from reading it. It is > 1,017 pages long. >  > However, here we have made a list > of items for you to read as items of importance so that you may have some undertaking of what is > being proposed for us. >  > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted August 11, 2009 Report Share Posted August 11, 2009 As a person without any healthcare and this horrible illness it has been quite disturbing all the arguing on tv in these town meetings and in gov't. I certainly don't mind waiting for a doctor or test because right now I am not getting any care and haven't since 2001. To get it where my husband works it would be about 800.00 a month and of course there is the pre-existing illness so no need to bother. Having a safe home is my priority. I once had a doctor that said you can have all the medical help in the world but if you still live in a home with mold you are fighting a losing battle. > > Sue, > > Attributed your comments below to Carl.
