Will Obama's health care bill cover starvation?

Since Obama only cares about his health care bill and evidently doesn't care about the economy or if people have jobs or if people can support their family I have to ask this question.

    A lot of Americans are overweight anyway. So it will be therapeutic starvation. But to answer your question, starvation would be a medical condition. So I'm sure if you're starving, Obamacare will give you some skid row cheese and peanut butter to eat.

    Good question! It won't.

    The bill is probably the last needle put into America's economy coffin, of course it will create more debt for America and American people - on the other hand it is going to be source of billions for large companies - eg pharmaceutical that are already lobbying among politicians to get the bill passed.

    Information: The newly-forged 1990-page “Affordable Health Care for America Act” (HR 3962) offered by the House of Representatives is filled with mental health provisions intended to prop up psychiatry as well as the pharmaceutical industry with billions in future income. Key mental health components of this House bill:

    Mental Health Parity

    The bill mandates Mental Health Parity, or equal insurance coverage for mental disorders as what are covered for physical diseases, whether under their regular health insurance or whether a person gets their new coverage through the Health Insurance Exchange.  Psychiatric patients are traditionally “cured” when their insurance benefits run out.  In this bill, those benefits never run out.  Considering there are no medical tests to verify the existence of any psychiatric disorder, and without anything other than a psychiatrist’s opinion about whether or not the person’s “illness” is “cured,” this legislation becomes nothing more than taxpayer funded billions to the psycho/pharmaceutical industry who will continue their jihad of mass drugging of Americans.  This provision could easily encompass all 374 diagnoses in psychiatry’s diagnostic manual, covering everything from Phase of Life Problem to Arithmetic Disorder.  Section 214, Page 100

    School Based Health Clinics

    The bill includes funding for School Based Health Clinics that will include subjective psychiatric mental health screening (called mental health assessments) of children, and “referral to a continuum of services including emergency psychiatric care, community support programs, inpatient care, and outpatient programs” as part of their “comprehensive primary health services.”  This is a direct feeder line for the psycho/pharmaceutical industry directly into our schools. – Section 2511, Page 1352

    If that's the case, then why did he even bother going through to push for constant extensions of people's unemployment benefits?

    Starving, right?

    You guys have to start coming up with better smear campaigns than this.

    Seriously. It's only going to make you look more foolish in the long run. (That's what I told "are you dry shaving me yet?" last night.)
