Health Care Reform HR 3962

The views expressed in this blog are my own personal opinions and do not represent the views of Cottonwood nor it's administration.

As everyone knows by now HR 3962, the health care reform bill, passed in the House of Representatives by a vote of 220-215. Our own representative in Congress, Gabrielle Giffords, voted in favor of the bill. I have previously outlined my concerns about this version of health care reform, indicating that it goes beyond health care reform and is essentially a government takeover of the entire health care system. I don't have anything new to say except that while the initial version HR 3200 was 1300 pages long HR 3962 is 1900. I will next comment on this issue after the final version is complete after coordination and merger with the Senate version which we have yet to see.

There is a lot that will be said by many on this bill that is based upon rumor.. I won't comment on it until I have read the final version in it's entirety just as I did HR 3200 so it will be awhile. I read the previous version while my wife was out of town and I had plenty of time on my hands!

Thought for the day

Give thanks to the Lord for He is good. His mercy endures forever.
