Senate version of health care is a spectacularly bad piece of legislation

							The Senate version of health care is a spectacularly bad piece of legislation, and must be opposed for
many, many reasons.

Here are just some of them:

   •   The government will take over 1/6 of the American economy, and put government bureaucrats
       between you and your family's health care providers.
   •   It will cost $2.3 trillion over 10 years when fully implemented and dump a huge debt on the
       shoulders of our children and grandchildren (Senate Budget Committee).
   •   It creates more than 110 new agencies and bureaucracies in the federal government.
   •   It will cut $500 billion from Medicare and $170 billion from Medicare Advantage, resulting in
       rationed and inferior medical care for senior citizens.
   •   It is "the most pro-abortion single piece of legislation that has ever come to the House floor
       for a vote" and contains numerous "federal pro-abortion mandates and federal subsidies for
       abortion" (Doug Johnson, National Right to Life Committee).
   •   It will require taxpayer funding for abortion, and will even require purchasers of private plans
       to pay a monthly fee to pay for other people's abortions.
   •   It contains no conscience protections for health care providers who do not want to be coerced
       into performing abortions.
