The recent passing of Obamacare is devastating. The ramifications will not be felt until 2014, well after the election.

Obamacare will be paid in part by taking a half-trillion dollars from Medicare.

As a result of this seniors will receive less quality care and limited care same health care as you.

Twenty-one new taxes are in Obamacare. Eighty-five percent will be paid by middle-income taxpayers.

An estimated 15 percent of the current hospitals will close. They will be unable to keep operating under the Obamacare.

Doctors will be closing their practices because the new regulations will bankrupt them. You think its hard to find a doctor now that will take a new Medicare patient? Just wait.

Our economy is a disaster. Our deficit keeps escalating. Unemployment continues to be high. Prices for food keep rising. Paychecks are stagnated. How are you going to pay for this?

We would all like everyone to receive health care when needed. Today no one is turned away and denied care. This health care plan could not have come at a worse time for our country.
