Government=failure

Programs in every federal department suffer from fraud, cost overruns, and other types of mismanagement.

The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly of the Baucus Bill

They have to lie about the costs. It is the only way

The truth is that health-care reform is going to cost us a lot. And we're going to pay for it in higher taxes and more debt.

No wonder they don't want us to know.

Hiding behind the Hyde Amendment

http://www.sba-list.org/site/c.ddJBKJNsFqG/b.5489321/k.656C/Stop_Hiding_Behind_Hyde.htm

One of the issues that splits with libertarians is abortion. We do not believe in compulsion in anything. This causes a bit of a problem for us, as some believe that woman should have the choice to have the abortion, while as others believe you are "compelling" the baby to be dead. I hold the latter opinion. But, I also believe women should have the choice, what I dont believe is that I should subsidize it. Nor should other people who do not share the same viewpoint as me have to subsidize it. The Hyde Amendment does not make it so that HR3200 will not use government funds for abortion. In the public option, everyone would have to pay part of their premiums to help subsidize abortions, that is the language. When people say the Hyde Amendment will stop this, they are just frankly wrong.

Abortion will be part of the public option

Obviously, if the government is going to run healthcare, abortion will be a part of it, no matter what it will be a part of the public plan. Your money will finance abortions, it is the way it is.

How Healthcare Kills

http://www.theatlantic.com/doc/200909/health-care/6

I know reform is needed, but always wonder why it is so pressing, considering none of the proposals offered up take effect until 2013, one year after the Presidential Election of 2012. If it is so pressing, and obviously so complicated, why are we trying to ram it out in less than 6 months?

When did we collect the most tax revenues?

When taxes were lowest. Wonder why.

Article on how taxing hurts the economy. Taxing the rich is the worst idea, because after that, it will follow that the middle class will be taxed. Its coming.

Seniors and the Baucus Bill

Yes, insurance companies can not reject you for pre existing conditions. But they can charge you more and more the older you get.
