Political Watch August Issue #2 08/29/2009
August 1 - Paging Dr. Government Because the government knows what is best for you and your family, they are set to vote on a 1,000+ page health care bill that will make health insurance mandatory and crappy. Highlights include: - Health care rationing - Your health care benefits will be chosen for you - Government will have direct access to your bank accounts for electronic funds transfer - Higher taxes - Regulations of how much doctors can own - Restrictions on how big a hospital can be - Government approved list of end-of-life treatment - Government will build registries to track you with your medical records - Doctors in residency will be told where they will live - Required vaccinations Many people are against this bill because of how much it costs ($15 Trillion over 10 years) but I believe are missing the bigger point which is: Where in the U.S. Constitution does it authorize government to involve itself in doctor-patient relationships?
