_______________________________________________________________________________________
These are five of sixty that passed this bill. They are so proud - because they passed "something." They are proud because they think they have done something great - and they believe this bill is "good for America."
We shall see.
Here are some of the results of their lies - distortions- illusions - half truths, and just general BS.
1. With this bill - you will pay more, and get less.
2. Pre-existing conditions will be covered - but will cost 60-80% more than the premiums of a healthy person.
3. If you live in
Florida you can keep your Medicare Advantage plan, if you live in another state-you cannot, tough luck. A bribe for Sen. Bill Nelson. They needed his vote.
4.
Louisiana gets a break with their Medicaid program, $300 million - a bribe for Sen. Mary Landrieu.
5. Chris Dodd, gets $100 mil for a hospital in his state of
Connecticut. Is your state getting money for a hospital?
6. Ben Nelson’s Cornhusker Kickback will cost $100 million for
Nebraska.
7. $300 million
California doctor payments.
8.
Bernie Sanders from
Vermont will get socialized medicine satellite clinics, $10 Billion, two clinics in Vermont.
9.
New York and
Pennsylvania will get Medicare Advantage help too.
10. $300 million
California doctor payments.
11.
Vermont and
Massachusetts will get help with Medicaid expansion costs
There are more goodies, for votes in this bill. No one knows all of them - how many are hidden in the bill? Harry Reid knows.
