President Obama,
Thank you for establishing this website and email address. It is vitally important that we root out dissent and crush it before it infects more of your subjects. It is appalling to see individuals exercise their First Amendment rights; even worse that the conservatives should be organized! Community organizing is so reprehensible unless, of course, it supports your divine efforts to “fundamentally change” our nation.
I eagerly await the day we burn all the conservative books in the streets. When can we help round up our neighbors who oppose your master plan and resettle them in isolated ghettos so they can finally be punished for their evil, capitalistic ways? I have some particularly fishy neighbors with “McCain/Palin” bumper stickers, they go to church, and some even have NRA stickers on their cars. Since most of the dissenters are the ones with jobs who will be working to pay taxes for your massive government spending, it makes sense that we should force them into labor camps to make products the government can sell to fund the Health “Insurance” Bill. There won’t be much difference to them anyway – slaving away to fund your massive government.
However, to your immediate purpose: I would like to report a website and email that I found “fishy” and replete with “misinformation.” Having read all 1017 pages of HR 3200 I believe I am uniquely qualified to separate facts from fiction. The email was sent by a man named David Axelrod on August 10, 2009 with the subject line, “It’s time for a reality check.” It was extremely devious and the author claimed to be associated with your office, but the website linked in the email (http://www.whitehouse.gov/realitycheck/?e=10&ref=image) was so full of falsities I knew it couldn’t be legitimate.
For instance, the website makes the claim that we will be able to keep our health care insurance under HR 3200. But section 102 (a)(2) of HR 3200 specifically states we can keep our insurance only if “the issuer does not change any of its terms or conditions.” Section 111 will prohibit insurers from having pre-existing condition exclusions which will force insurers to raise premiums (a change in terms and conditions) lest they go bankrupt. At that time the insurance must become a “qualified plan” per the Bill. The stipulations for a “qualified bill” are nowhere defined in the Bill except to say it is at the discretion of the government administrator. Of course, this refutes your New Hampshire Town Hall (August 11, 2009) claim that government will not be involved in our health insurance plans (but I won’t tell anyone, it will be our little secret).
I agree with the website’s claim that Medicare won’t be modified greatly as there is very little contraction of Medicare in the Bill; in fact, it is mostly an expansion of Medicare. It’s funny that you told Americans 2/3 of the funding for HR 3200 will come from savings in Medicare when the Bill will provide no such savings. It’s even funnier because Medicare has a $61.6 trillion unfunded liability! Ha Ha! We’re going to use the money we “save” from a program that’s massively bankrupt to pay for something that will bankrupt the country even more – good joke; you say it with such a straight face that I almost didn’t know to laugh.
I really laughed when I saw the part of the website that claims small businesses will benefit from HR 3200. As a former small business owner, I am particularly aware of how small businesses are taxed. Given the higher tax rates for individuals making over $350,000 according to the Bill’s modification of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, section 59C, combined with fact that most small businesses are LLCs and partnership, which are taxed as individuals, this assertion in the website is absolutely baseless. Furthermore, the requirements for companies to provide health care plans starts at very small total payroll dollars which will ensure small businesses now have health care expenditures that they may not have had otherwise.
Section 1233, “Advanced Care Planning Consultation,” doesn’t describe euthanasia in agreement with what the website says, but any sane person must question why the government is advocating living wills and medical power of attorney issues be discussed with a physician and not a lawyer, who is actually qualified to discuss and develop such legal documents. Furthermore, the experiences in other single-payer systems have shown that the elderly are consistently denied life prolonging procedures due to rationing. But I won’t tell anyone about that either. Shhhh.
This leads to my final point of review of the website: that the health care plan will not lead to rationing. First, the provisions that each health insurance plan be “qualified” after 5 years (or as soon as any terms or conditions change – Section 102) gives the government direct control over insurance policies. Additionally, the “consumer protection” provisions of the Bill in concert with sections 113 and 116, mandated loss ratios (profits), guarantees the private insurance plans will be unable to survive. The government plan will be the only remaining, or single payer, insurance – consistent with your speeches to the SEIU about eventually ensuring a single payer system. As every other single-payer country in the World has been forced to ration care, so too will the U.S. system.
Finally, I commend you on your excellent work deceiving the American public and blatantly lying to them while claiming all your opponents are the liars. It’s hilarious that you make us believe you know what you’re talking about regarding HR 3200 when you haven’t even read the bill. Keep up the good work. Please make sure you continue to oppress the free speech of your dissidents, lest we fail to turn this country into a facist state. Congratulations on shamelessly pushing a Bill through Congress that will expand our Federal government while doing nothing to fix the health care problems in the United States. Keep the deception and vile transformation of our country going so we can finally be rid of everything that made this nation great and conform to the losing formula of all the other inferior countries in the World.
Sincerely,
