Quality affordable health care: it’s not just something we should do for America’s families, it’s something we must do for America’s economy.

Love him or hate him but this needs to heard because it affects everyone including liberals and conservatives. The healthcare plan that the president promised to pass has a provision on page 16 that makes new private insurance subscribers illegal. That means you can keep the healthcare you have but after this bill is passed you will no longer have an option at getting anything other than the public healthcare and the majority of employers will then switch to the public option thus giving the wonderful government complete control over your healthcare and that would ultimately let them dictate how you live your life and what you can and can’t do that might injure you or what you can and can’t eat because we aren’t responsible enough to decide what to eat for ourselves. This will also include rationing of healthcare based on age and probability of survival and it would insure that all illegals are covered and add to the lines that will form with Obama’s healthcare reform. Is this the American Way? Are we to give away free healthcare and have the government dictate who gets what based on whatever guidelines they decide to implement? Do you want MORE governmental control on something as important as healthcare? Do you want the same government running healthcare who finds it cheaper to assist you in suicide and abortion than to give you the medicine and surgery to keep you alive or your baby alive? This is one of the most important BILLS out there to stop besides the horrendous Cap and Trade (tax and kill) Bill that they are trying to shove down our throats and the upcoming Immigration Reform Bill that will make instant citizens of the 20-30 million illegals who have no respect for our laws, borders, language, or culture of OUR country. Is that what you want?
Is this what you voted for? Time to kill these bills and contact your representatives and Senators and let them know you don’t want it and that if they vote for any of this they are getting a pink slip in the 2010 and 2012 elections because the days of them spending us into oblivion and running on autopilot and doing as they please or as their party tells them to do is no longer an option. They WORK for us and they need to be reminded of that!

The President reveals his bold plans for better health care ! — $ $ $ — |
In his first address to a joint session of Congress, President Obama told the American people that the “day of reckoning” has arrived for the nation’s economy, which he pledged to not just fix but make stronger than it was before the current crisis.
“Now is the time to act boldly and wisely — to not only revive this economy, but to build a new foundation for lasting prosperity,” the president said in his televised prime-time address.
Obama was greeted with thunderous applause in the House chamber, as lawmakers reached out to try and get a handshake or, in some cases, a kiss as the president made his way down the narrow aisle to the podium.
Obama is enjoying a 68 percent approval rating after his first month in office, according to the latest ABC News-Washington Post poll, and his pledge to reverse the nation’s economic woes earned him an early standing ovation from both Democrats and Republicans.
“While our economy may be weakened and our confidence shaken; though we are living through difficult and uncertain times, tonight I want every American to know this: We will rebuild, we will recover, and the United States of America will emerge stronger than before,” Obama said.
Obama laid out proposals in energy, health care and education policy that he said would help everyday Americans struggling with rising costs and would be long-term investments toward economic recovery.

Ron Clark Academy students write a song their take on health care reform to the tune of Miley Cyrus’ ‘Party in the U.S.A.’ on CNN.
Lyrics:
Got paged in the morning at 5am
Time to go into work again.
Welcome to the world of medicine,
Whoa, here we go again.
The hospital’s packed with people in a long line
Agitated cause we’ve waited for a long time.
This is all so crazy, too many missing coverage lately
My tummy’s turning and I’m feeling kinda sickly
My hip’s bad and I feel weak
And the prices are always raising up.
Conservatives and liberals say
To reform healthcare today
But they can’t seem to find a way.
So we throw our hands up for healthcare reform
Make your choice today.
Private and public care
Will a marketplace treat us fair?
So we throw our hands up for healthcare reform
Make your choice today.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It’s a problem in the USA.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It’s a problem in the USA.
Obama says everyone needs
Health coverage in America now.
We need to insure those 47 million
But the government doesn’t know how.
Deductibles getting higher every day
I got my bill and I’m thinking NO way.
And what about my brother?
He’s hurt and can’t get covered.
My tummy’s turning and I’m feeling kinda worried
Capricious coverage is killing me.
That’s when a doctor said, “You’ll have to go.”
Bipartisan support was tried so we wouldn’t be denied
But Joe Wilson yelled, “You lie!”
So we throw our hands up for healthcare reform
Make your choice today.
Private and public care
Will a marketplace treat us fair?
So we throw our hands up for healthcare reform
Make your choice today.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It’s a problem in the USA.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It’s a problem in the USA.

Part 3 of 3 There is a liquid demographic of Americans who strategically trouble shoot and minimize projected loss.
The strategically thinking, extremely intelligent, passionate about taking care of their family American forsakes any desire to win the approval of any traditionally mechanized industry and shifts to take on characteristics on paper of whatever expectation they have to in order to save their family.
Respectfully suggested administrative solutions for U.S. Economic Recovery. Reported via Managed Service with expectation of qualified responses, hope and humility to President Barack Obama, his Presidential Staff and Presidents Executive Officers in the form of print and with 13 Videos including Schedule A and This 45 Page Word Document on DVD transmitted to 15 Managed Service List Addresses published by WhiteHouse.gov Briefing Room as being either President Obamas Executive Staff or Officer Appointments, White House, 1600 Pennsylvania Ave., NW Washington, D.C. 20500 April 5, 2009.
We have no choice but to pray this administration will be responsible and read this. We have no doubt, that if The Presidents Executive Staff and Officers read this, their senses of moral and professional responsibility will compel qualified responses that guarantee the permanently successful implementation of U.S. Economic Recovery Plans and Budgets.
In The Trenches
I believe this is an amazing time to be alive on this planet and an even more amazing time to be an American. President Obama already pointed out that we can use the Economic Crisis as an opportunity to suggest collaborate and network solutions for long term U.S. Economic Recovery.
I believe that all learning has value and particularly now more than ever. We are evolving as a human species and what all of us do and do not do will have lasting impacts on human quality of life. The internet technologies and free speech are beautiful gifts for learning, networking and elevating quality of life. However, like any other tool, the internet technologies are wielded by the will of the human and can be used for harming others.
The billions of dollars in revenue earnings worldwide economies and industries are trying to capture and recapture are locked in an un-accommodated creator population. This population does not show up in any census, demographic, welfare, charity, incarceration, school enrollment, school drop-out, or affirmative action perspective.
Achieving and keeping abundant revenues now hinge on these practice models that are designed to address the basic human needs of the product source. Identified is the previously unseen, unmeasured and un-accommodated Worldwide Population of Disadvantaged Creators. -HireLyrics Schematics 2003, Survive and Hold On Is A Business Rationale!©
The answer to missed educational opportunities; oppressive contracts and unaccountability horror stories; racism; poverty; and hate-based ideas festering into terrorism, is the responsible development of entities that standardize access, standardize procedures, and standardize services.
I am confident that exposure of administrative horror stories across all industries and systems; sharing and networking our suggestions and solutions will shine a healing light on U.S. Economic Recovery and we will be successful in achieving long term economic prosperity. -Respectfully, roxanne grinage

HAPPY HALLOWEEN! 
“The Colbert Report” this week found something a little ghoulish about the resurrection of the public option just in time for Halloween, though, as I argue in this video, the public option may be necessary to kill the real monster threatening the United States: rising health care costs.
The short clip from “The Colbert Report” I use in this video comes from a segment broadcast on Comedy Central on October 29, 2009, currently available in full at http://www.colbertnation.com/the-colbert-report-videos/253997/october-29-2009/threatdown—halloween-edition

Nationalized heath care will be so great, I can hardly wait. Obama will save us. He will help us because we are so pathetic that we cannot take care of ourselves. I will be first in line at one of these national clinics, because in that way I will be assured of getting my health problems (I have a hang nail) taken care of within the first year.
We will be the envy on the world. All will come here for their own free health care, especially our good friends from south of the border. Some know them as illegal aliens, but I like to refer to them as dislocated visitors. They will help us test our new health care system that the liberals will have given us. The dislocated visitors from down south will use our health care system to such an extent that we will soon know if it is able to handle all that was promised, which was free health care for all.
Now I would like the liberals to start working on the other things that are promised to us in the Constitution, and among these are: Free housing for all, free transportation for all, free food (good food!) for all, nice cloths for all, free internet access for all, and finally, a good paying job for all.
I hope the evil rich people and corporations are ready to get soaked by the tax man, because he’s a coming for your money. And you will have no choice but to pay up, or to leave the country, and I’m sure that none of you will leave the country, will you?

House Pledges July 31 Deadline to Pass Health Care Reform
House leaders pledged today to pass comprehensive health care legislation by July 31, a deadline President Obama said showed the “urgency” needed to fulfill his signature reform measure this year.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) announced the deadline after meeting with Obama and other House Democratic leaders at the White House this morning. The president linked the pledge to other progress he said he has made this week on sweeping health care reform, a goal that has proven elusive for decades. If it stays on deadline, the House would send legislation to the Senate after the August recess, improving its chances of passing this year.
“We don’t have any excuses,” Obama said. “The stars are aligned.”
Obama began the week meeting with health care industry executives who pledged to voluntarily reduce the annual growth of health care costs by 1.5 percentage points, saving an estimated $2 trillion over the next decade. Obama repeated today that escalating health care costs are “the single biggest driver by far” of the ballooning budget deficit and national debt, and those projected savings would in theory help reduce Medicare and Medicaid costs in the coming years.
On Tuesday, Obama held a roundtable discussion at the White House with business leaders to talk about employer health care costs. In looking for ways to pay for expanded health care coverage, the administration is considering taxing the cost of some employer-subsidized health benefits, something that Obama opposed during last year’s campaign.
But Obama said today he is encouraged by the week’s discussions, saying that “we are starting to see a shift in those patterns” of partisanship, industry opposition, and special-interest lobbying pressure that have conspired to undermine past efforts to bring down health care costs and extend coverage. About 50 million Americans have no health insurance today.
Republican Rep. Roy Blunt (Mo.), chairman of the House Health Care Solutions Group, expressed displeasure after the meeting at not having been included.
“I’ve told the President and White House staff on numerous occasions that the House Health Care Solutions Group is ready to work with him toward the shared goal of making quality, affordable health care accessible to all Americans,” he said in a statement. “This common ground serves as a constructive starting point for true health care reform, but we find private, one-party meetings that set arbitrary deadlines a sign of a troubling lack of bipartisanship.”
