Hello:

I am opposed to this legislation for the reasons given below. We need health care reform but we need to approach this through tax incentives, trying not overburden with regulation and keep government cost and involvement to the mimimum.

As I understand the present health care package that may pass congress will:

 Raise taxes. You will have to pay taxes on the amount of dollars that the insurance company pays on a claim. This is just one example of many.
 Raise premiums.
 Decrease Medicare benefit.
 Increase the Federal Debt.
 Increase the Deficit.
 Impose restrictions on Businesses.
 Does not address tort reform.
 Increase the government’s further intrusion into every bodies life
 Decrease coverage.
 Possibly have you claim reviewed by a apathetic government employee
 Decrease competion if the public option componet is included, because the private sector can’t have the lower premiums that the government has, thereby driving the private sector out of business.

There is a proposed Senate Bill S1099 that’s worthy of consideration. It gives tax rebates to individuals to shop for policies on their own. Also proposed Senate Bill S2662 address tort reform.

Sincerely,

Bill Cash
