A few distortions on HR 676 posted on DU...

Edited on Sat Aug-15-09 01:57 PM by slipslidingaway

- the government will Not allow you to pay privately for a procedure that is not covered by the national insurance.

Hard to provide a link to prove the above post is wrong.

- people will have to pay the portion that employers currently provide, ie. there are no provisions for employers to contribute to the national health care system.

Link...from page 19.

HR 676

"17 (C) Instituting a modest and progressive
18 excise tax on payroll and self-employment in19
come."

Please feel free to add to the list, there are others which I cannot think of at the moment.

Thanks

:)

1. Thanks for the rec, there are several inaccurate statements being

made in different threads.

As I see them I'm going to post them here with a link refuting the statement and then post this thread in the SP forum for easy reference.
