The Ratline

So the Obama administration seems to think that developing a ratline where people can call up and rat on their neighborsw is a good idea. I wonder what would happen if people decided to email in with information about the president himself. Go to this link

In other news, HR3200 has the trojan horse in it that conservatives have accused Democrats of putting into the bill. It is in Sec 102, subsection a, paragraph 1, subparagraph A:

(A) IN GENERAL- Except as provided in this paragraph, the individual health insurance issuer offering such coverage does not enroll any individual in such coverage if the first effective date of coverage is on or after the first day of Y1.

In other words, after day 1 of y1 (Jan. 1, 2013), no one will be able to offer private health insurance to new individual customers. After all the employers drop their employees, whamo! instant takeover of you! If you thought the Bush Administrations policies of invasion of privacy were bad, well you ain't seen nothin' yet.
