Letter: Say no to health care taxes

DALTON —



President Obama has put online his own proposal for health care. This time he cannot point his finger at the House, Senate, Republications or even Democrats when it fails. He will have to face the music for his legacy alone.

In his online proposal, President Obama has 35, yes 35, new taxes, fees, or penalties. He has said that the proposal will cost only $1 trillion. That is the price only if he can take $500 billion from Medicare, and can get all discounts from hospitals, doctors, and drug companies. It also does not include the cost of hiring the federal bureaucracy to operate his proposal.

Because he just doesn't get it, I urge all citizens to pick up the phone and call the White House (202-456-1111) and your congressmen and tell them no to his tax increases for health care.

Wake up America, before it is too late.
