Debunking Healthcare Reform Myths

Download this piece of garbage and read it (H.R.3200) the bill is full of very scary rules. THEY OWN us. This has NOTHING to do with health care. First they took control of Wall Street, the Banks, 2 of our 3 Auto Companies, Pre- K through higher Ed, now 5th of our economy. They want to take over the internet and private networks ( down load the 2009 Cyber Security Act and read it). If we let this go there is no turning back.

AARP speaks out of both sides of their mouth. They came out against Medicare Advantage plans and advocated penalizing them (just as in the healthcare bill) and now they have begun sponsoring a Medicare Advantage program for AARP members.

Of course it will be a more expensive, less beneficial plan because the healthcare bill that AARP endorsed includes penalties and restricts these plans.

They don't want to miss the opportunity to profit even on coverages they don't believe in.

Fact
AARP is part of the Problem.

You cannot trust AARP for anything
they have been bought off

AARP is part of the Problem.
Fact

If AARP is our" trusted source" of health care information then please tell me why at least 25,000 members dropped their membership as soon as AARP endorsed the health care reform bill. What we need is tort reform, tax breaks for doctors that provide free treatment, and interstate competition of health insurance.

AARP has a membership of about 35 million, so you're saying 0.07 percent of its members reacted that way after months of deceptions and misinformation from opponents of healthcare reform, while 99.9993 percent did not do anything like that. What does that say then?

I renewed my own membership that week in response to their support of badly needed healthcare reform. Do you have any info on how many others also renewed, or are you and Fox news only advertising the fraction that resigned?

Money

Can someone explain to me how a tax on my health insurance carrier, a tax on the company that makes my drugs and a tax on my lab tests is going to reduce my healthcare costs ?? seems like smoke and mirrors to me.

In the end we will all be paying more and getting less. Watch !!

AARP does have something to gain. They sell health insurance - the Medigap type. I suspect they will see a huge increase in their market with any government managed coverage al la Medicare.
