'I hope you don't get sick' - Texas judge
Subject: Judge David Kithil >
WOW!! Lets hear it for the Judge! The article is in the Marble
Falls,Texas newspaper. It was written by our former county judge, David
Kithil. He voiced his opposition to HB 3200, and gave EXACT SPECIFICS, to
include page and paragraph in the bill on why this Health Bill is BAD.
I called Thomas Edwards, Editor of the River Cities Tribune, to get legal
permission to quote David Kithil's comments. He gave me that permission, so
I can quote him. Here are excerpts from the article, giving EXACT pages and
paragraphs in the bill and why it is so bad. You can forward this to all of
your addressees. I think he hits everything right on the head and the
opposition you may encounter cannot argue over these points:
JUDGE KITHIL: "I have reviewed selected sections of the bill and find it
unbelievable that our Congress, led by Speaker Nancy Pelosi, could come up
with a bill loaded with so many wrong-headed elements. We do need to reform
the health insurance system in America in order to make coverage affordable
and available to everyone. But, how many of us believe our federal
government can manage a new program any better than the bankrupt Medicare
program or the underfunded Social Security program? Both Republicans and
Democrats are equally responsible for the financial mess of those two
programs.
I am opposed to HB 3200 for a number of reasons. To start with, it is
estimated that a federal bureaucracy of more than 150,000 new employees will
be required to administer HB3200. That is an unacceptable expansion of a
government that is already too intrusive in our lives. If we are going to
hire 150,000 new employees, let's put them to work protecting our borders,
fighting the massive drug problem and putting more law
enforcement/firefighters out there."
NOW, here comes the good stuff: "Other problems I have with this bill
include:
Page 50/section 152: The bill will provide insurance to all non-U.S.
residents, even if they are here illegally.
Page 58 and 59: The government will have real-time access to an
individual's bank account and will have the authority to make electronic
fund transfers from those accounts.
Page 65/section 164: The plan will be subsidized (by the government) for
all union members, union retirees and for community organizations (such as
the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now - ACORN).
Page 203/line 14-15: The tax imposed under this section will not be
treated as a tax. (How could anybody in their right mind come up with
that?)
Page 241 and 253: Doctors will all be paid the same regardless of
specialty, and the government will set all doctors' fees.
Page 272. section 1145: Cancer hospital will ration care according to the
patient's age.
Page 317 and 321: The government will impose a prohibition on hospital
expansion; however, communities may petition for an exception.
Page 425, line 4-12: The government mandates advance-care planning
consultations. Those on Social Security will be required to attend an
"end-of-life planning" seminar every five years.
Page 429, line 13-25: The government will specify which doctors can write
an end-of-life order."
HAD ENOUGH???? Judge Kithil then goes on: " Finally, it is specifically
stated this bill will NOT apply to members of Congress. Members of Congress
are already exempt from the Social Security system and have a well-funded
private plan that covers their retirement needs. If they were on our Social
Security plan, I believe they would find a very quick "fix" to make the plan
financially sound for the future."
Honorable David Kithil Marble Falls, Texas
All of the above should give you all the point blank ammo you need to
support your opposition to Obamacare.
