The Brady FLOW CHART
Even though the Democrats are attempting to block this chart from being mailed out to Americans, here is Congressman Kevin Brady’s (R-TX) detailed flow chart of the complex health care reform being proposed. Brady is the lead House Republican on the Joint Economic Committee and his chart illustrates and identifies at least 31 new federal programs, agencies, commissions and mandates that accompany the unprecedented government takeover of health care in America.
Brady stated “Why should any patient be forced to give control of their health care over to this Faustian pit of Washington bureaucracy?” “This government takeover has only one guaranteed result: to tell Americans what doctors you can see, what treatments you deserve and what medicines you can have.”
There is not a single example of a government run program that is more efficient and cost effective compared to privately run organizations and businesses.
Don’t allow your healthcare to be taken over by this radical Congress and President!!

WHATS GOING ON IN THE LAB AT FLOYD? I HEARD THEY FLUNKED ANOTHER INSPECTION...
The latest example of conservative clowning on this deeply serious subject debuted over the past few days via the usual channels: a "chart," released by the House Republican leadership, that purports to show the daunting bureaucratic maze of agencies, mandates and taxes that will result should a Democratic health bill become law.
Supposedly depicting how a new system would be organized, this drawing shows more than 50 multicolored boxes, circles and cartoon pictures, connected by red and blue arrow vectors. According to Rep. Kevin Brady, the Texas Republican who distributed it, the chart displays the "new levels of bureaucracy, agencies, organization and programs [that] will all be put directly between the patient and their healthcare."
That is simply a lie, as Brady surely knows, since none of the Obama administration's proposals or the Democratic bills would interpose any federal agency between patients and doctors -- or between consumers and insurers -- for those who are satisfied with their current plans. Examined closely, most of the items on the chart, including several Cabinet departments and federal agencies, as well as "the States" and "Consumers" and "Private Insurers," already exist, of course. It is hard to say what the GOP drawing can actually be said to show except that American healthcare is already complicated. Much more complicated than systems in other countries, such as France, Germany, Sweden, Norway and Japan, that rely on public as well as private insurance plans to achieve universal coverage.
Omitted from the Republican schematic of healthcare hell are the truly nightmarish complications of the current system, most of which can be attributed to the machinations of insurance companies (an appalling labyrinth, well known to anyone who has been seriously ill, thoughtfully sketched by the New Republic's Jonathan Cohn here). On Brady's chart, there is merely a happy little box marked "Traditional Health Insurance Plans," as if they involved none of the corporate bureaucratic snares that deprive consumers of needed care.
For anyone with a working memory, moreover, it is remarkable to listen to the Republicans complain about the "baffling" complexity of a plan to provide new healthcare benefits (or the cost). When the Republicans controlled Congress and the White House, they passed Medicare Part D, the impossibly confusing prescription drug benefit plan that they rammed through, despite immense flaws, in order to win older voters suffering from exorbitant drug prices. The insane complications of Part D, which required many hours and expert assistance to decipher, were necessary for one reason alone -- to protect the private insurers, pharmaceutical interests and lobbyists who stood to profit from that wasteful scheme.

Bipartisanship is for suckers
Hey, Democrats -- Republicans have no intention of addressing America's healthcare ills. Any reform is up to you by Joe Conason, Salon.com
Bluegill,
Get a clue and open up your biased and blinded eyes.
Name one single government agency that runs more efficiently than a private one.
Your article is typical left wing rhetoric.
We can all play that game:

It gives a much fairer report and actually has some specifics.
Where is the chart wrong.
This isn't about healthcare, it is about Obama and the Left's power grab
to tell Americans what doctors you can see, what treatments you deserve and what medicines you can have.
Your health insurance company already makes those decisions for you via provider networks and what they will and won't cover.
The difference is your health insurance company makes those decisions for you based on profit motive.
This isn't about healthcare, it is about Obama and the Left's power grab
At least you're honest about it. When a majority of congressional Republicans decide to actually make it about healthcare, let me know, would you?
The republicans are very responsive to making things better with healthcare, but Obama and the Democrats will have nothing to do with it.
This legislation wreaks with more and bigger government and it is the Democrats trying to control more and more of our lives and liberties.
Are you really this blind or just that stupid
