5 freedoms you'd lose in health care reform

Here is a synopsis of the freedoms in our healthcare that we will give up if the so called "Obamacare" bill (which, although he is stumping for it, I don't think he or his administration drafted any of it) passes. Since I have an HSA, I would most immediately be affected by number three. The rest would affect me soon enough.

In any case, here are the five freedoms we would sacrifice, followed by a link to the article I lifted these from in Fortune magazine.

1. Freedom to choose what's in your plan

2. Freedom to be rewarded for healthy living, or pay your real costs

3. Freedom to choose high-deductible coverage

4. Freedom to keep your existing plan

5. Freedom to choose your doctors

And you can find the article here.

Really, it all just means more taxes for us all if it passes. No real improvements in health care and no more treatment will be available for any poor soul than they can already get now.
