Bill would give president emergency control of Internet

[VeeP]

As for the health insurance takeover, if you had actually read any of HR 3200, you would have seen within the first 210 sections, that private insurers are not allowed to enroll any new customers as of day 1 of Y1 of implentation of the bill. What this means is that if you have health private insurance now, you'll still be covered. However, after the bill goes into effect, if you don't currently have private insurance, you will not be able to enroll for coverage under a private plan, and your only "option" will be a plan ran through your employer. This is not an option...it's a takeover of the health insurance industry. Do yourself a favor and read the bill

Ah yes, and herein lies the "You can keep your current plan and doctor" straw man. That is until your employer asks himself "why am I doing this?" and kicks you to the public "option".

Oh, I guess this thread is about government seizing control the internet in an "emergency". Yeah, fuck that. Anyone remember the faux election in Iran a few months ago?

I remember the one in the US in '99...

Rest assured the ACLU would be all over that bill if it contained any hint of Big Brotherhood, Obama-friendly as it may be.
