Pelosi, Reid and Obama are getting closer to the control of every American's lives with this massive healthcare bill. It's not about healthcare for those that can't afford it. They should be so magnaminous. No, it's about the complete government take over of our lives. It's a huge power grab continued from the Bill and Hillary Clinton years. It didn't work then and it must not pass now. When the Soviet Union fell under Reagan I said to myself, "Watch it fall there and rise here." I didn't know how then, but now I can see it happening here. They even have the death panels back in after saying they would take them out. It will be based on your age and cost whether you need a certain procedure. A bureaucrat will decide for you not your doctor. Senior citizens will be affected the most. It's short of assisted suicide.
To all you dems and libs out there who will also be affected, How's all that hope and change working out for you? Wait until you need a knee replacement or heart bypass. Enjoy the long wait when doctors are rationed and they will be rationed. Also knee replacements, heart valves, bone replacements,wheel chairs and other health needs will all be taxed. Below is a list of pages and what's on them in condensed form for easy reading or you can click on the link and read the entire 1900 pages. As House Minority Leader John Boehner said,"How are we going to fix our healthcare system with 1,900 pages of bureaucracy?" Have fun.

Mike Pence: Reading Guide to the Pelosi Health Care Reform Bill
Please read and forward the link to this note ( http://bit.ly/1rGrpW ) to your friends and family. This reading guide includes what we have uncovered in our initial reading of the Pelosi health “reform” legislation (H.R. 3962) introduced by House Democrats.
Page 94—Section 202(c) prohibits the sale of private individual health insurance policies, beginning in 2013, forcing individuals to purchase coverage through the federal government
Page 110—Section 222(e) requires the use of federal dollars to fund abortions through the government-run health plan—and, if the Hyde Amendment were ever not renewed, would require the plan to fund elective abortions
Page 111—Section 223 establishes a new board of federal bureaucrats (the “Health Benefits Advisory Committee”) to dictate the health plans that all individuals must purchase —and would likely require all Americans to subsidize and purchase plans that cover any abortion
Page 211—Section 321 establishes a new government-run health plan that, according to non-partisan actuaries at the Lewin Group, would cause as many as 114 million Americans to lose their existing coverage
Page 225—Section 330 permits—but does not require—Members of Congress to enroll in government-run health care
Page 255—Section 345 includes language requiring verification of income for individuals wishing to receive federal health care subsidies under the bill—while the bill includes a requirement for applicants to verify their citizenship, it does not include a similar requirement to verify applicants’ identity, thus encouraging identity fraud for undocumented immigrants and others wishing to receive taxpayer-subsidized health benefits
Page 297—Section 501 imposes a 2.5 percent tax on all individuals who do not purchase “bureaucrat-approved” health insurance— the tax would apply on individuals with incomes under $250,000, thus breaking a central promise of then-Senator Obama’s presidential campaign
Page 313—Section 512 imposes an 8 percent “tax on jobs” for firms that cannot afford to purchase “bureaucrat-approved” health coverage ; according to an analysis by Harvard Professor Kate Baicker, such a tax would place millions “at substantial risk of unemployment”—with minority workers losing their jobs at twice the rate of their white counterparts
Page 336—Section 551 imposes additional job-killing taxes, in the form of a half-trillion dollar “surcharge,” more than half of which will hit small businesses ; according to a model developed by President Obama’s senior economic advisor, such taxes could cost up to 5.5 million jobs
Page 520—Section 1161 cuts more than $150 billion from Medicare Advantage plans, potentially jeopardizing millions of seniors’ existing coverage
Page 733—Section 1401 establishes a new Center for Comparative Effectiveness Research; the bill includes no provisions preventing the government-run health plan from using such research to deny access to life-saving treatments on cost grounds, similar to Britain’s National Health Service, which denies patient treatments costing more than $35,000
Page 1174—Section 1802(b) includes provisions entitled “TAXES ON CERTAIN INSURANCE POLICIES” to fund comparative effectiveness research, breaking Speaker Pelosi’s promise that “We will not be taxing [health] benefits in any bill that passes the House,” and the President’s promise not to raise taxes on families with incomes under $250,000
