Life is in your hands
La vida esté en sus manos
Ración Médica-Parte 2 Como es documentado en
Medical Rationing—Part 2
As documented by media reports and the language of
the law itself, Obamacare will limit access to life-saving
treatment in four different ways: 1. Obamacare imposes a
40% excise tax on employer-paid health insurance premiums
above a governmentally imposed limit that does not keep up
with medical inflation. Consequently, insurance companies
will be forced to impose increasingly severe restraints on
policy-holders’ access to medical diagnosis and treatment
- limits that will make it harder to get often-expensive
treatments essential to combatting life-threatening illnesses.
For the elderly who are nearing the end of their journey,
that we may value their lives at the end, we pray.
Have you prayed
the Rosary today?

los reportes de la prensa y el lenguaje de la ley de por si.
Obamacare limitará acceso a tratamientos de dar vida en
cuatro maneras diferentes: 1. Obamacare impone un impuesto de consumo de 40% en la aseguranza médica pagada por los empleados ademas de los límites puestos que
no se mantienen a la par con la inflación médica. Consecuentemente, las compañias de aseguranzas son forzadas a
imponer más restricciones severas al acceso de los asegurados
al diagnóstico médico y tratamiento- límites que hará mas
dificil recibir tratamientos esenciales, a veces muy costosos,
para combatir enfermedades que amenazan la vida.
Por los ancianos que están cerca del final de su jornada,
que le demos valor a sus vidas al final, oremos.
