A Small Victory (Maybe)

The Left seems to have given in on some of the atrocities that were included in Obama Care. A major concession is the supposed elimination of the government run portion of the plan along and the Medicare buy in. Senator Joe Lieberman now seems poised to support the bill. The lone wolf is Senator Ben Nelson who is vehemently opposed to any sort of tax payer funded abortion provision in the bill. Good for you Ben! If this part of the bill is changed it would appear that he will support the bill and it will pass. This version of the bill will be quite different then the original version. I have doubts as to whether these things will actually have been change when BHO signs the bill. This is to say I don’t think they will have changed. If indeed I am mistaken and these things aren’t in the final signed version of the bill it will only be a small victory for the people. Even with these changes this is still a bad bill. It won’t lower cost it will raise the deficit and will negatively affect both the quality and availability of healthcare, and the economy.
The only way to reform healthcare the RIGHT way is through Tort Reform, which will lower insurance cost for Doctors. Portability of insurance and tax breaks for companies to further cut costs. We should also have the ability to fill prescriptions in neighboring countries with less expensive medications of equal quality. This will give U.S. companies incentive to lower prices. Free market competition will ensure quality service at lower costs.
No doubt if this bill doesn't the Democrats will point fingers at the Republicans and say they voted against reform. I suppose in their warped perception of reality they believe this. My advice to the GOP and the American people is to not buy into this finger pointing. The GOP knows this bill is bad for America and should vote against it. If this bill passes the American people should vote out anyone who voted for this bill. Are you listening Mary Landrieu? We should then elect people willing to fight the president and amend this bill into something that will be good for all Americans.
That’s E’s View
