Read some of the socialized medicine bill

It's H. R. 3200. The title and description are:
America's Affordable Health Choices Act of 2009

To provide affordable, quality health care for all Americans and reduce the growth in health care spending, and for other purposes.

As usual the title is a lie and of course the "for other purposes" bit means that they plan on throwing in all kinds of nonsense.

Here is a link at the opencongress.org website. I suggest you spend a little time reading it.

Here is a link to a pdf copy. Peter Fleckman put some comments about it on twitter and someone emailed them to me so I'll just post them. I haven't verified all of them but I scanned through and checked some and they mostly seemed to be correct. Here you go:

People wanted change and we're going to get it good and hard.

The Obugger steamroller is slowing down and if this trend continues until the end of the year, we may see positive movement in 2010(off year elections) the blue dogs are nerveous and rightly so.

Thanks for posting this, Bitmap. I've been looking for a copy in pdf so I could peruse it at will. What a freaking nightmare of a bill...

I'm sure they'll figure out how to sneak it in there somewhere, but the way I read it illegals aren't covered under this version. "Non-resident Aliens" are documented and expected to pay taxes. Pg. 143 specifically forbids federal payments for undocumented aliens. Looks that way to me anyway, but I'm not a lawyer.

Of course, they could just change the definition in a 3am amendment and then there wouldn't be a problem.

You are correct Paladin. We'll see how that turns out.

Best hope is like Ron Russell said - that this will not pass.
