What is really in the health care bill?
Placeholder Image
When the Democrats put out their health care proposals, they made sure not to forget their friends at ACORN, the organization involved in voter fraud throughout America.
The Health Care Bill provides them with guaranteed money in pages 95, 469, and 472.  Maybe this is the civilian army President Obama was referring to that would be funded better than our military.  Page 95, explains how ACORN will be funded.  He is off to a good start in funding them billions with the stimulus money and now wants to provide ACORN money from the Health Care Bill.

 On page 495, it says in black and white, that everyone on Social Security, which includes all Senior Citizens and SSI people, attend MANDATORY counseling every 5 years to learn and choose from ways to end your suffering (and your life).  This is very curious since President Obama has aligned himself with Paul Joseph Watson, who is the Science Czar, who wrote a shocking proposal to have a mass sterilization of the population by artificially medicating municipal water supplies to control the population growth.  It makes you wonder the thoughts of influence of those people whom President Obama has chosen to have in his inner circle.

A Health Care Bill that intrudes on the people is not a good bill for the people.  We should not be looking at a Health Care Bill when the government has already bankrupted Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid.
