The Myth That This Healthcare Bill Will Help Reduce Cost

Let us be very clear, this healthcare bill WILL NOT reduce cost. President Obama and the Democrats are play fast and loose with the facts, and are merely playing a shell game. The United States Government (or for that matter, any government) is ill-equipped to provide services and goods, period. In fact, every time the government meddles in the free-market, chaos follows (remember “price control” under President Carter….how did that work out?)

A Cost-Control Mirage: Obama is telling people what they want to hear about health care, not what they need to know.

Also, there are things crammed into this bill that have NOTHING to do with healthcare:

Green Energy Schools: Funding for (high performance) green energy schools? Forget the fact we should be funding schools that perform high academically, but what does this have to do with healthcare?

Student-Loan Funding: This bill includes the complete takeover (and full funding responsibility) for all federal funding of college student loans. One, the government already screwed this program up, and once again, WHAT DOES THIS HAVE TO DO WITH HEALTHCARE!!!!????!!!!

We must keep push our legistaors to vote against this bill, and start over.
