is the healthcare bill and overall good thing or bad?
why and try to site a credible source
it is bad.
First of all, the bill has nothing to do with health care, its primarily just mandated insurance.
Which is another way of saying that you must pay more for 99.999% of medical services than you would have to pay if you are not covered. for 0.001% you pay less. that’s how insurance companies work–if they didn’t take in more money than they paid for services, they’d go out of business.
Secondly, what the congress has done, is mandated that insurance companies cannot deny coverage to anyone–essentially the same thing they said to the banks when they told the banks that they had to give loans to people who didn’t qualify. We all know how that worked out.
Thirdly (and most importantly)
The US constitution was written by the people, specifically to limit the powers of government. Today, the government ignores those parts of the document that do so, and use the remainder to limit the freedoms of the people.
The powers of government are limited exclusively to those outlined in that document.
Those powers do not include the ability to mandate or deny that any good or service be purchased or sold by private citizens.
We CANNOT allow the government to continue to exceed its authority.
We CANNOT allow the government to continue to strip americans of their freedoms with every act of legislation that they pass.
more laws=less freedom.
The US has more laws than any other country in the world, and the highest percentage of its citizens behind bars of ALL countries in the world. yet we still tend to think of it as the land of the free.
and we are free in the US: Free to pay more and more taxes and fees mandated by the government right up until we are free to starve, homeless on the streets.
