QCK POINTS ON HEALTH-CARE
WHY THE RUSH?
Spin – Obama is being accused of trying to rush Health-care reform in order to satisfy his own political agenda.
Idea – Obama is trying to produce the most change. As long as it remains on the floor, it is open to more speculation and republicans (as well as more conservative democrats) will find ways to bargain in favor of maintaining the broken system of healthcare that Americans are currently subjected to.
THEY TOOK OUR HEALTH-CARE!
Idea – Health-care will be available to a the “vast majority” if not every American.
Spin – Illegal immigrants could possibly receive Health-care under new plan due to a loop hole.
CADILLAC PLANS
Idea – Reduce the tax breaks that are available to higher income Americans (applies to people who gross more than $1,000,000 annually)
Spin – Obama wants us to all to accept a lower quality of Health-care, so that it will be available to more Americans.
DEBT, DEBT & MORE DEBT!
Spin – We have spent too much money already! Obama is simply trying to run us into more debt!
Idea – Yes! It is going to cost a lot to address and restructure the inefficiencies of our current system. This change is necessary for our already in debt nation to recover and work towards getting out of debt. What people need to realize is that it is an INVESTMENT. Eventually, or ideally rather, this money will help to reform the system and make a more competitive market for health insurers and Health-care providers ultimately leading toward a more progressive system over all. He uses the analogy of paying to keep your house heated. If you could warm your house by INVESTING in insulation and in turn saving money on your bills to the electric(or other utility) company, why would you not? He goes on to say that you would still be just as warm and yet you would be paying less.
What is your take?
