None of these are myths. They are just inconvenient truths.
Among the results on items the White House considers myths:
67 percent of respondents believe that wait times for health care services, such as surgery, will increase (91 percent of Republicans, 37 percent of Democrats, 72 percent of Independents).
I don’t know why it wouldn’t work this way here. It does everywhere else socialized medicine exists.
About five out of 10 believe the federal government will become directly involved in making personal health care decisions (80 percent of Republicans, 25 percent of Democrats, 56 percent of Independents).
Look at the VA booklet. The government will be recommending to you to die and get out of the way.
Roughly six out of 10 Americans believe taxpayers will be required to pay for abortions (78 percent of Republicans, 30 percent of Democrats, 58 percent of Independents)
My Senator, Barbara Mikulski, inserted the language in the Senate bill in committee.
46 percent believe reforms will result in health care coverage for all illegal immigrants (66 percent of Republicans, 29 percent of Democrats, 43 percent of Independents).
54 percent believe the public option will increase premiums for Americans with private health insurance (78 percent of Republicans, 28 percent of Democrats, 58 percent of Independents).
Because of locality pricing, where you can’t discriminate against the fat smokers, etc, everyone else has to pay for them. That and the fact that the government won’t pay for their share, and private health insurers will pick up the bill, which will eventually price out the private insurers, just like the Dems want.
Five out of 10 think cuts will be made to Medicare in order to cover more Americans (66 percent of Republicans, 37 percent of Democrats, 44 percent of Independents).
They are already talking about the cuts from health care costs for the elderly. They want them to shut up and die quickly
