THEY ARE USING SEMANTICS BEHIND THE CURTAIN!!

"Health services should not be guaranteed to] individuals who are irreversibly prevented from being or becoming participating citizens. An obvious example is not guaranteeing health services to patients with dementia."

One of the many lies that Obama and his sycophants are telling the uniformed public, is that we need a Government health insurance option, because there is no competition to the health insurance industry.
There are presently 30 different Health Insurance Plans offered through independent insurance agents in the State of Florida.
Among the many are some of the readily identifiable names like Blue Cross Blue Shield, Aetna, Humana, United Health Care, Pacific Care,
and Assurant. All competing for Floridians health care dollars.

Many States have laws restricting companies domiciled outside that particular state from becoming licensed in the State, or variations of that restricting customer choice.
It would be a simple matter of passing a Bill that would break down any restrictions that inhibit major, licensed Health Insurance companies from competing in all 50 states. We do not need a government option that does not need to make a profit, because it is backed by tax payer funds, as an option to reduce costs! This is just a canard!!

The other lie swirling around Washington DC and the government leaning main stream media is that if the Democrats cannot get enough votes to prevent a Conservative filibuster to block ramming Obamcare down our throats. Is the invoking of the "Reconciliation" option to allow passage of Obamcare with just a simple majority of 51 votes in the Senate.

The Congressional Budget Act of 1974, Titles I through IX, includes Title III that allows a budget resolution before the Senate that is being filibustered, to allow invoking what is called the Byrd Rule!

The Byrd Rule was an amendment to the the budget reconciliation acts of 1985,86, and 1990. This allows Senators who object to the use of "reconciliation" to raise points of order that cannot be waved unless there are three-fifth of the Senators who vote to over rule the "point of order".

This is important because the White House has indicated that as they are used to doing in Chicago, they intend to get what they want despite the people's protests, and will "RAM" it through no matter what!!

The Byrd Rule requires any reconciliation that involve "extraneous"
provisions to a budet bill br subject to deffinite requirements.
There are six provision that forbid "reconciliation". If the bill or amendment-----
1.do not produce a change in outlays or revenues
2.produce changes in outlays or revenues which are merely incidental
to the non=budgetary components of the provisions
3.are outside the jurisdiction of the committee that submitted the title or provision for inclusion in the reconciliation measure
4.increase outlays or decrease revenue if the provisions title, as a whole, fails to achieve the Senate reporting committee's reconciliation instructions
5.increase net outlays or decrease revenue during a fiscal year after the years covered by the reconciliation bill unless the provision's title, as a whole, remains budget neutral( no way Obamacare qualifies in this way!)
6.contain recommendations regarding the OASDI(social security) trust funds( what trust funds, there are none!!)

Since reconciliation of the bill for Obamacare will cover as many as ten years and probably more, the fifth provision can have the effect of requiring that any tax spending increase, as incumbent in Obamacare, must be approved by three-fifth(3/5) of the Senate!
You can see that unless they want to violate their own rules, the Democrats cannot invoke reconciliation!
