Senator LeMieux’s Proposal

December14
0

The end of November saw the introduction of a 2,074 page health care reform bill that will provide discounted medical insurance for those Floridians who don’t yet have it and cannot afford it.  While this seems to solve the problem Americans are facing, Florida’s Senator LeMieux is not satisfied with the way the bill proposes to resolve this issue.  The bill will use cuts in Medicare funding as well as an increase in taxes, to fund this additional discount insurance.  As if the issue of health care isn’t a topic of heated debate as it is, the bill also includes funding for abortions, which Senator LeMieux disagrees with.  In attempts to curb health care fraud, which could significantly reduce up to a quarter trillion dollars each year in wasted funding, the Senator is attempting to pass legislation that would use a system similar to the credit card sector to investigate questionable claims.

Democratic State Representative Mary Brundenburg claims that though taxes will increase, total cost to middle class families will decrease, so I ask, how can a tax increase and projected rises in health care costs to those who already have insurance lead to a lower total cost to citizens?  Could Senator LeMieux’s bill proposal save money to be re-alotted to discount health care, thus reducing the need to raise taxes and cut Medicare in order to resolve the health care controversy America is currently facing?

    From the total lack of activity on this site, I recommend we sut it down and save some precious RPOF funds.

    Or hand the control over to county Chairmen so they authorize some real bloggers to set this site on fire!
