In the face of public outcry and defeat at the ballot box, Washington Democrats are still poised to move ahead with their plans to usher in the largest expansion of government control over our health care system with a “vote-no vote” on the Senate bill.

While the so-called “public option” appears to be dead, the Senate bill will include czar-like bureaucracies and federal regulations that will ultimately give politicians in Washington the power to make decisions about your health plan and thus the treatments you receive.

And it doesn’t stop there.

First: It’s estimated that up to $10 billion will need to be dumped into the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) to fulfill the mechanisms of the Democrats’ so-called reform. Yes, the US taxman is about to become part of American medicine in a major way, not just picking your pocket to keep the engines of government moving but now will become the health care police.

Second: A final vote on health care reform may not be a vote on the legislation at all. Under this scheme, the House of Representatives would vote on a bill of amendments to the Senate bill, and then Senate bill would be “deemed” to have passed if this companion bill is approved. What this means is that House members can vote on a rule and not the Senate bill itself – removing any and all accountability to the American public.

Clearly Washington isn’t listening. Take a stand today and say “NO” to government-control.
