HEALTH CARE CONCERNS

The Administration is trying to defuse the negative aspects of the proposed Healthcare Reform measure/bill/proposed law overhaul. One major aspect of this effort is the Administrations declaration (& Senate concurrence) is that there is presently NO Healthcare bill being considered since nothing has been submitted for debate and approval. However, since the House of Representatives have passed a bill and sent it to the Senate for match up and there are some Senate Committees that have viewed and sent on for Senate approval, that contention is a very poor subterfuge designed to limit debate on the actual proposed content of the Healthcare Initiative. According to one version of the various plans being considered, the following information has been determined (by unknown people or organizations). If any of this is really true, we the people need to be very concerned about our future and the direction that this country is headed. It is relatively unimportant what these provisions would apply to, but only that they are being considered. Our privacy and personal security is, in my opinion, in grave jeopardy. Even if the below items are only paraphrased or an interpretation of the legalese contained within the bill, be concerned.
