Mr. President:
I know it is not beneath you to squander the American dream for average Americans as you make sure the Special Interests are well fed and average Americans starve for equal treatment. But where do you get off rewriting the Constitution? That really takes a boatload of hubris.
Where in that document does it say that all Americans MUST have health care insurance and MUST participate in the health care system the way YOU see fit?
How Americans choose to care for their bodies IS NONE OF THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT’S BUSINESS!
Telling an American that he/she MUST participate in the established medical community (i.e., that which is covered by “health insurance”) is patently un-American.
You plan to TAX people who don’t want to participate in this health care scheme. When is TAXING people more EVER a good idea? Is that the best you can come up with? If they don’t pay the tax, what are you planning to do—imprison them? No, you’ll send the IRS after them. That’s worse.
There are millions of Americans who don’t buy into nor take part in the U.S. mainstream medical care and are quite healthy without MDs, drugs, hospitals, and surgery. That is their choice.
IT IS NOT UP TO YOU TO DETERMINE HOW A PERSON SHOULD CARE FOR HIS/HER BODY. Who are you—Dr. Mengele?
Not every American will have a drastic disease in his/her lifetime. Not every American will require hospitalization. Not every American will need surgery. Not every American will need pharmaceuticals to live a long and healthy life.
Therefore, NOT EVERY AMERICAN needs health insurance. Your argument that every American needs insurance is a fallacy. That’s the greedy and pernicious insurance industry speaking through your smoker’s mouth.
Your health care “reform” bill actually punishes healthy people and makes them subsidize people who don’t take care of their health. What kind of a cockamamie system is that? It’s pitiful. And most likely illegal.
People who take care of their health and stay healthy should be rewarded—not taxed, fined, and/or imprisoned.
If you put people in prison, the stress, lousy food, lack of exercise, lack of sunshine and fresh air, and exposure to who-knows-what will definitely HARM someone’s health. And who pays for the health care of these “uninsured” prisoners that your health care “reform” bill has created? TAX more Americans?
Consequently, your health care “reform” bill actually has the ability to drastically impair the health even further for those 46,000,000 Americans without insurance (either by choice or by lack of affordability).
And you think this bill is a good thing? And you think it’s “affordable?” That’s insanity. (Add Nut Job to your resume.) You are purporting to help America’s health, but in actuality you are decimating it.
What your health care bill is REALLY about is that you have kowtowed to special interest groups at the expense (physical health and financial health) of average Americans. You are a pathetic pawn of BIG CORPORATIONS, and as such, you are helping to erode the American way of life (the promise of prosperity and freedom from insidious laws) for the middle and lower-income classes.
Who are you to tell me I need health insurance? YOU’RE A SMOKER for cryin’ out loud! You’re part of the problem! Smoking– besides really stinking up the joint–ruins your health and increases the cost of insurance coverage for EVERY AMERICAN.
I am NOT part of the problem. I don’t need health insurance and I don’t want it. I take care of my own health in a naturopathic way and do an excellent job at it. As a result, I’m very healthy and don’t get sick. (Knock on wood!)
Mr. President: Stay away from my body! It is not yours, Congress, the medical community, or the insurance industry to decide what to do with it.
I am perfectly capable of deciding how to take care of it myself. I have not been to a doctor in over fifteen years and don’t plan to. I will NEVER pay for a health insurance policy under any draconian system that you decree. I also refuse to pay a TAX because you favor the welfare of insurance and pharmaceutical companies before that of average Americans. Since I won’t be signing up for this lunacy, and don’t plan to go to prison, I guess I’ll go to court. If that doesn’t work out, I guess I’ll go to Canada (if that country will have me). But boy, America will miss me! 
You’re not fixing the health care problem in America by trying to make it affordable. You’re just passing the costs on to the least able to pay. Again, you are damaging the American way of life.
Although I’m older than you, I know I am healthier than you. First of all, I DON’T SMOKE! Care to compare CRP, homocysteine, thyroid, HGL, LDL, triglycerides, 25-hydroxy Vit. D, and total cholesterol levels along with a CBC Chem panel—liver, kidney, blood proteins, blood count, red/white cell profile, blood minerals, and glucose values? (Note: My brother suggested a HHI – Hemorrhoid Health Index.)
In the year or so that you have been POTUS, you have either become a sell-out to the highest political contributor OR you’ve been a self-serving politician since Day One and all your campaign rhetoric about change and a better America for average folks was nothing but hot air full of smoker’s breath.
Either way, my HOPE is that your bill fails miserably. It’s supposed to be about health care “reform” yet you do not address HOW TO KEEP AMERICANS WELL, which in the long run would reduce overall health care costs. And to be well is the most beneficial way for Americans to live their lives. I guess you’d have to care about that to take it into consideration.
In the meantime, quit sending the “Gimmee Gimmee Gimmee” money emails to try to pass this travesty of legislation. They make you look desperate. Tell Mitch to quit saying, “Can you chip in?” Chip in for what? Bribes to Congress to vote yes? What exactly are you using that money for? Why does it take gobs of money to pass a bill? Wouldn’t a “reform” bill that was terrific for Americans in general (and not special interest groups) pass through Congress with flying colors? Or has our government for the people and by the people eroded into a faint memory?
As far as begging me for money, you have already hoodwinked me once. You WILL NOT do it again.
I am one of those Independents that helped elect you. I WILL NOT do it again.
