I have attempted to make this article as
understandable as possible. I implore you to read it fully, and to re-read it
if something isn’t clear.
The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) just
released their analysis of the Health Care bill this morning – along with the
Reconciliation bill that the House is seeking to pass that will add amendments
to the Senate version of the bill.
Let’s begin our analysis with a very telling
paragraph in the report. It can be found on page 1:
“Although CBO
completed a preliminary review of legislative
language prior to its release, the agency has not
thoroughly examined the reconciliation proposal to verify its consistency with
the previous draft. This estimate is therefore preliminary, pending a review of the language of the reconciliation
proposal, as well as further review and refinement of the budgetary
projections.”
This is an example of the CBO seeking cover for what’s
about to happen. NOBODY knows what language is in the reconciliation
bill!
Here’s what’s going to happen on Sunday, just so you can be aware
of the tyrannical and treasonous structure of our government.
The House
of Representatives is going to attach a “rule” to the Reconciliation bill. This
“rule” will state that the Senate version of the Health Care bill is “deemed as
passed”. This means that we will never see a recorded vote of which House
members voted for or against the Senate version of the bill. It will just be
stipulated as passed.
The House vote that will take place this coming
Lord’s Day will be on the Reconciliation bill. The Reconciliation bill
will then go to the US Senate for a vote – but will only need 51 votes to
pass since it will be considered as “budget reconciliation”. There will be no
opportunity for Senators to filibuster this bill!
Let’s look at what
else is being foisted upon us.
“CBO and JCT (Joint Committee on
Taxation) estimate that enacting both pieces of legislation—H.R. 3590 and the
reconciliation proposal— would produce a net reduction in federal deficits of
$138 billion over the 2010–2019 periods as a result of changes in direct
spending and revenue.”
Hey, this doesn’t sound too bad! What’s not
to like about a $138 billion dollar deficit reduction over the course of 10
years? Read on. You’re about to discover how you get lied to time and time
again.
Page 8 of the CBO report shows us that the “Gross Cost of Covered
Provisions” will be $940 billion over 10 years. Remember, this number has no
basis in fact – it is just an estimate based upon a Reconciliation bill that
nobody really knows the contents of. It will be much higher than
this.
Let me ask you a basic Economics 101 question. Ready? How will
our country “SAVE” $138 billion over 10 years when it has to “PAY” an extra $940
billion in Health Care taxes over that same time period?
How will our
Federal budget deficit shrink when we are spending so much more
money?
How many of you remember the Federal budget deficit reductions
that we had under President Clinton? He used the same sleight of hand that we
are about to witness again.
ALL government “trust” funds (Social
Security, Medicare, Civil Service, Military Retirement, etc.) are stolen from
each year. ANY money from ANY of those “trust” funds that is not “outlaid” to
recipients each fiscal year is summarily STOLEN by our government and used to
fund other programs. These STOLEN funds are replaced with IOU’s that are backed
by the future labor of you, your family, and our entire working
population.
Here’s the kicker. All of that STOLEN money has a “pretty”
name attached to it. It’s called “Inter-governmental Lending”. The Federal
government will use that STOLEN money and count it as part of their money that
they get to spend each year. Are you beginning to see the picture?
The
Federal government can INCREASE their Marxist policies and spending and still
claim a $138 billion “reduction” in the Federal deficit as long as they are able
to STEAL enough money from the newly created “Health Care Trust Fund” to make
their annual budget deficit “’appear” to shrink.
Here’s the secret that
they don’t want you to know. That STOLEN money still has IOU’s that need to be
paid back by your future labor. That STOLEN money still counts as part of our
national debt!
All “reduction in federal deficit” means is that the
Federal government spends less each year than it takes in. If it’s STEALING a
HUGE chunk of money from the new “Health Care Trust Fund” then it can claim to
reduce the deficit.
However, the debt (IOU’s) sitting in the “Health Care
Trust Fund” that is still owed by our future labor DOESN’T GO AWAY!!! Our
nation’s overall debt INCREASES by a HUGE amount, even though our nation’s
Federal budget deficit DECREASES.
If this concept doesn’t make sense to
you then please take the time to re-read this article. Feel free to email me
with any questions. It is ESSENTIAL that people understand what is about to
happen to our nation!
Folks, I don’t know what else to say. We have
reached the point of government tyranny. We will be forced into the new system
the same way they have forced us into the old system – by the point of a gun and
the bars of a cell.
“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all
men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with
certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the
pursuit of happiness.”
It is GOD that gave us liberty and
freedom (under His righteous rule) in this nation – not the
bureaucrats!
When are we as a nation going to begin acknowledging that
fact? When are we going to tell these tyrants NO MORE!!! When are we going to
stop being sheep led to the slaughter of our liberty?
Andrew Jackson
had a saying that is very relevant to where we are today: “One man with
COURAGE makes a MAJORITY”! We should all carefully ponder those
words.
