Comments about ‘Obama welcomes AARP backing of health-care bill’

This does nothing to lower costs of health care or give better treatment; this is about getting our money, stopping our faith and getting government control.

Mandatory health insurance is against God’s ways. "LP Beria, Psycho-Politics AnAddress on Health Care and Control" at Lenin University for American students said the only thing that could stop CONTROL OF THE PEOPLE through Health Care was faith healing and it must be discredited and wiped out.

The Health Care Reform is only one problem the nation is fighting; we have a major financial crisis, energy crisis, pollution of our air, land, water and food, disease, wars and immigration. Turing to a garden paradise lifestyle solves them all.

Mandatory health insurance would require a staff like the Internal Revenue Service, salaries, insurances and retirement plans and increases our other problems. Corruption is easier with each layer of personnel. Speack out against it.

My faith says to believe God and not man for healing; I have seen God heal what doctors say is impossible. Congress cannot force me to go against my religion. That is in the Constitution.

Marie: Who said BHO or congress cared about the constitution. They are breaking it all the time now. They don't even care about us any longer or else they might listen to our emails and letters etc.
This is not about health care, it is about power. If it were about health care it could be solved very quickly at a small fraction of the price and very little buraucracy.
AARP supports it because it has Medicare supplimental written into it and eliminates the enhansed care people get through private Medicare health insurance plans. That will drive people to the supplimental plans and AARP markets supplimental plans and is going to make a lot of money.

The last administration brought us oil wars and Utah didn't protest. This administration wants to take care of the sick and all of a sudden Utah cares about spending and free will. It's amazing how easily led a supposed god fearing people can be away from christian principals.

How dare the government provide health care for everyone! Don't they know that if we get sick, we are supposed to die and reduce the surplus population? All we need is another tax break for the very rich and it will trickle down to us losers.

Says Marie, "Mandatory health insurance is against God’s ways... My faith says to believe God and not man for healing..."

Marie - I'm guessing that if your doctor diagnosed you with a disease you'd refuse treatment and instead appeal solely to God for relief, right?

What, God doesn't want you to first try to do everything you can to take care of yourself before appealing for His help?

Look, you are free to kill yourself with ignorance and superstition. That's a choice you get to make for yourself - but not for the rest of us - and especially not for children who look to adults for care when they are sick or injured.

I prefer living in the real world, with real-world awareness of how dangerously and increasingly dysfunctional our current health care financing system is and with an eye on reforming it.

You that say its unconstitutional let the bill pass and take it to court. I bet you lose just because when as a conservative been right lately?

Fox News the network of Wealth care for billionaires. Who has the most to risk: a worker or a wealthy conservative? If there is no change in health care Rush Limbaugh won't be without insurance. He won't be denied coverage.

Obama touts that AARP represents 40 million Americans and welcomes their endorsement. AARP does not represent the opinions of 40 million seniors on health care. AARP is an insurance provider/broker and they are in the business of increasing their profits. They could care less about the welfare of all Senior citizens. Most of their mailings me before I resigned are solicitations to sign up for their insurance plans.

Secondly, I have a close friend who is a practicing physician. He stated to me the other day that the American Medical Association does not represent nor is spokesperson for the majority of Doctors practicing in the United States. They have their own agenda, so one needs to take very lightly their political motives in this endorsement. A Pew poll last month of over 1,300 physicians indicated that if the current version of the health care reform bill becomes law, 45% of those physicians would either quit practicing medicine or would retire from the profession. Sixty-five percent of those physicians said they opposed the proposed healthcare bill.

Are you kidding? I think one thing that any God would say should be a basic right of every human being is the right to receive any available care for their health.

How dare you bring God into a discussion regarding helping human beings get the opportunity to live their life in as healthy a way as possible.

I thought this legislation was opposed by everyone in America? Especially the elderly who are going to be sentenced to death as determined by a Death Panel.

Could Fox News have lied to me?

Ditto. My parents are in AARP solely for the supplemental Medicare policy from them. Pure financial decision, it was the best one out there that had coverage in their area and in the area they are hoping to move into. But they oppose the AARP on just about every political issue.

It's great that those 45% of doctors who are part of the problem ripping off consumers with escalting costs can afford to just up and retire.

Unfortunately not an option for those of us dealing with exponentially increasing premiums, hospital bills and medication.

was just in his proposal of this legislation. Everyone knows that if he had 1)started a war based on falsified information or 2)inserted as part of th health bill a requirement that all Americans carry a gun with them 24-7, all of the Republicans against the health bill would be quieted.

He should have played the distraction game like W. Start a war using non complete information so that nobody cares what you are doing at home. You could sit on your hands for 8 years and watch the country get flushed down the toilet, but Republicans would be too distracted by a good ole war to care.

AARP stands to make huge profits through this Death Care scam, that is why they back it, very simple, follow the money!

Yes, AARP is supporting the President! Look at the President Crow while 80 Percent of Seniors oppose this STUPIDITY!

Yes, watch the President lie to us that the A.M.A. is supporting the Health Care Plan, while a poll shows 86 percent of Physicans oppose this bill!

AARP is inline to make more money on this bill than even Al Gore is racking in on Global Balarney! AARP will fill in the new gap amount caused by 500 billion dollars in medicare cuts!

The House bill includes:

pg94- No private health insurance sales after 2013.
pg110-Funds Abortion.
pg111-Gov't determines what is subsidized.
pg225-Gov't OFFICIALS EXEMPTED FROM PLAN.
-Gov't verifies income but no verification for undocumented illegal aliens sucking off the plan.
pg297 2 1/2 percent tax on those who do not buy "BUEARCRAT APPROVED PLAN".
pg316- 8 percent tax on jobs
pg336- 500 Billion surcharge on small business which will cost 5.5 million jobs

General tax increase of 572 Billion dollars.
500 Billion dollar cut in medicare affecting seniors and the military.

AND SO MUCH MORE!

86 percent of Americans are happy with there insurance.

Insures 12-20 million illegals

WHY?

I let my AARP membership expire about a year ago when I realized they were so left-wing. An advocacy group needs to advocate for the DIRECT benefit of its members, not their bosses favorite political cause!
They keep sending me junk mail for all the ins. they sell though, so I guess its best to send back the "business reply mail" empty so they can at least pay for postage since they don't seem to care about their members!

There are much better ways reform health care than to socialize it. Unfortunately no one will listen. Americans would rather stand around in shackles with their hands held out. There is no such thing as free health care. Someone will have to foot the bill. What will happen after those who foot the bill have been milked dry? Socialized medicine will not work period. Anyone that has the ability of rational thought can see this. Health care costs WILL rise under government control. Anyone who says any differently is lying. Someone is going to have to pay. Who is going to carry the burden? Please one of you Dems tell me how this will work. What a train wreck.

Let the resignations begin...

I refused to join when they sent me an invitation because they are so far to the left.

Throw in "legals" remember how Jews helped German conservatives gain power in Germany.

We could all be issued government ID to carry to prove we are Americans.

I see the nutjobs are out again.

I'll pay for my medical bills, you pay for yours.

Theft is not charity.
