“this big government spending plan being called a stimulus is deeply flawed and being rushed through Congress with little regard for the consequences. Take a look at some of the provisions, including $1.1 billion in spending to prepare the country for socialized medicine. Under the guise of economic stimulus, the bill creates a Council for Comparative Effectiveness, which amounts to government bureaucracy deciding what is best for your health care based on cost averages, not what is best for each individual sick patient. President Obama's health care advisers have made clear that this is part of their overall plan to move toward universal government-run health care. People don't want socialized medicine in this country. This has nothing to do with creating jobs and getting our economy back on track. Using this so-called stimulus bill to move the country towards the agenda of the left is wrong. First the bailout, now the stimulus, millions of dollars in pork. Enough is enough.”
