Letter to Congress from the heart of Oklahoma. Another Einstein in the making!
http://www.congress.org/congressorg/bio/userletter/?id=483&letter_id=4042914106

To:
Rep. John Sullivan
President Barack Obama
Sen. James Inhofe
Sen. Tom Coburn

October 6, 2009

If Healthcare Reform cannot be 100% funded wait until it can be. Even though You, Mr. Obama, continue to say you will get this done whether the American people want this or not. WE DO NOT WANT THIS.

Senator Coburn, Senator Inhofe, and Representative Sullivan, I want you to stop the Medicare cuts and any other cuts to fund a program that the people do not want. Do not pass any bill that until the country is debt free as it will only increase the deficit.

DO NOT vote on anything that you have not completely read, has not been available for the public to read, and is not deficit neutral.

Medicare is going broke simply because of the continued cuts and the use of Medicare funds for other unrelated uses. Of course it is paying out more than it is taking in BECAUSE more and more are allowed benefits without their having paid into it. I have personally heard people discuss working for just long enough to receive disability, the returning to their home country to live very comfortably. This is a scam on those of us who have worked our entire lives and earned every penny we receive. It will also suffer it's funding unless people go to work. You should be focused on the country's job loss.
Healthcare Reform that the people will approve only takes one page:
ALLOW INSURANCE COMPANIES TO COMPETE NATIONALLY AND
END TORT REFORM

Be a hero and just do the right thing. After all People, it is not Rocket Science . The competition will bring down prices just like the AUTO Insurance has done. Do what you know works and stop playing with our lives and our money.

2. And don't disability payments come in monthly, not in a lump sum that allows the person to leave the
country wealthy?
