Propaganda Debunking

Every time my family gets together I hear these ridiculous stories about some 'hidden' provision of Obamacare. I have to spend holidays and birthdays debunking garbage they've heard on Fox, Limbaugh, etc. I'll check out this forum before we get together again.

Some of the things these RWers are so concerned about are just silly. I mean, what doctor doesn't already ask you if you smoke and plenty of other personal questions? Doctors already report to the CDC if you get some infectious disease, also. The government can already find out anything about you that it wants to know, if it doesn't know already. How is Obamacare going to make things worse? And as far as group visits, why that's just absurd.

Until we repeal the Patriot Act and put some new safeguards in place to protect personal information from prying eyes, which I'm all for, we're going to have a government that knows everything about us. Obamacare isn't going to make it worse. All we need is a law that protects our medical records so that even if information is shared, it will be anonymous. But it's typical of RWers to advocate tearing down an entire program because of a few problems with it. When they say they want reform, they're lying. All they want to do is to destroy.
