Health Care Reform

What President Obama should have said when he signed the bill:

"I am signing this bill for all the people who don't want to work. Those who are lazy. Those who want others to pay for their medicine"

At least if he had said this, I would have respected him for telling the truth.

Do I think we need health care reform? Yes.
Do I think the current bill is what America needs? NO!!! Absolutely not.

The goal of health care reform is to reduce the cost to Americans. I cannot see how spending over a TRILLION dollars saves American's money. I do understand that the bulk of the cost is coming from additional taxes on the wealthy. Fine. What about the rest of it?

What about the ramifications to small business owners? This bill seems to favor big business and will crush small businesses. Those that do not offer their employees health care could be caused to go under due to the high costs they will now incur. So problem, NOT SOLVED.

The government should have created a new health care option that Americans could buy in too if they so chose. A new type of health Insurance company that is available to all Americans at prices that are competitive to current Health Insurance companies. This would have led to Insurance companies keeping prices low as well as offered an option to those not covered. All this while NOT spending a TRILLION DOLLARS!
