This a coppy of a letter I just sent Congressman Earl Blumenaure. If you are concerned about the current Health Care bill, I would encourage you to write your congressman. Here is a link to find your repensative. http://www.leg.state.or.us/findlegsltr/home.htm
It seems Healthcare is on the docket again. Congress has spent over a year debating, demanding and begging members of both houses to pass a bill that very few have seen. Speaker Pelosi wants everyone to pass the bill so you can see how wonderful it is. Is that how you conduct your personal business? Would you sign a contract for a car that isn’t perfect, but the dealer will fix it if you sign the contract. Keep in mind that you have never seen the car. You don’t know if it has been sitting at the bottom of Bonneville dam for the past two years. The dealer is saying it doesn’t matter. Just sign the contract. Oh, and by the way, the contract is blank. You do not know how long you will be paying for the rust-mobile or for how long.
But wait it gets even better. You will not be able to drive the car for three years, but you will need to start making payments next month. You need to have faith in the dealer to provide you with an acceptable car that isn’t perfect now, but they will fix it. You aren’t sure how much it will cost or what your monthly payments will be or even what kind of car it is. Would you sign that contract? If so please provide all of your personal and business bank accounts along with a notarized Power Of Attorney allowing me access to all of your funds.
If you are not willing to provide the above-mentioned financial information, do not vote for this healthcare bill!!!! You are risking my financial resources and those of every American.
If you are this careless with our money, WE WILL REMEMBER IN NOVEMBER.
