Under H.R. 3200, the power of the IRS will be greatly expanded. In fact, a large part of this health care bill is written to expand the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. This bill will give the IRS power to implement and enforce it. Do we really want the IRS having more power over us as Americans? I think not. In addition, by giving the IRS these powers, we are also losing our privacy. Where once our health records was only viewed by our doctors and those we chose to share them with, they will now be available to a lot of different agencies and bureaucrats. Remember when we use to have to sign all those privacy papers at the doctor’s office? Well no more – if this bill passes we will no longer have any control over who sees them.
Health care reform means more power for the IRS
