Filed under: Uncategorized
  1. In 2008 (before the health care bill), the comptroller general of the United States, David Walker, reported that it would take every American $175,000 to cover the promises of the federal governments entitlement programs (Source: Liberty and Tyranny, author Mark Levin, publisher Threshold Editions 2009, pg. 95)
  2. “Under the new law, seniors are going to pay higher taxes. The higher taxes on drugs (effective in 2011) and medical devices (effective in 2013) will affect seniors especially, as they are more heavily dependent on those very products.” (Source: Heritage.org, Obamacare Impact on Seniors)
  3. “No class of American professionals will be more negatively impacted by the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act and the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act than physicians. Third-party payment arrangements already compromise the independence and integrity of the medical profession; Obamacare will reinforce the worst of these features.” (Source: Heritage.org, Obamacare Impact on Doctors).
