"Even-though the bill mentions privacy aspects, the fact remains that if approved, Obama's health care plan will allow government access at any time to your personal bank records," **KFYI News <http://kfyi.com/cc-common/news/sections/newsarticle.html?feed=118695&article=5824042>** reports.*** *"It's pretty Orwellian, it certainly gets the government pretty darn deeply involved in private matters in our lives," Arizona Congressman John Shadegg told the news radio station.*** *Orwellian it is, but hardly surprising or unprecedented.*** *After September 11, 2001, the government began tapping into a vast global database of confidential financial transactions. The government implemented a surveillance program and used a broad20interpretation of the Treasury Department's administrative powers to bypass traditional banking privacy protections. It is run by th e CIA and managed by the Treasury Department.*** * **"Current and former counterterrorism officials said the program works in parallel with the previously reported surveillance of international telephone calls, faxes and e-mails by the National Security Agency, which has eavesdropped without warrants on more than 5,000 Americans suspected of terrorist links," the **Washington Post <http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2006/06/23/AR2006062300167.html>** reported on June 23, 2006. "Together with a hundredfold expansion of the FBI's use of 'national security letters' to obtain communications and banking records, the secret NSA and Treasury programs have built unprecedented government databases of private transactions, most of them involving people who prove irrelevant to terrorism investigators." *** * **Treasury officials did not seek individual court-approved warrants or subpoenas to examine specific transactions, according to the **New York Times <http://www.nytimes.com/2006/06/23/washington/23intel.html>**.*** *As the Department of Homeland Security admits, the terrorists who supposedly threaten the United States are not Muslims plotting in distant caves, but the American people.*** *Section 163 of Obama's bill is merely an attempt by the government to legitimize its mass ive snooping under the cover of health care. In addition to deducting medical costs directly from you account, the law will allow the state to monitor all of your bank transactions. *** * //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////*** * * * ------------------------------------------------------------------------ * *Now after reading that cheery thought here is something to make your day....*** *Happy Birthday ....here is your present....by the way someone told me that they would rather use lighter fluid, isn't it better as a hair growth enhancer than Rogaine?*** <http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fCiTAJi1yRk> Chia Obama TV Commercial <http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fCiTAJi1yRk> Apr 3, 2009 - 01:00 This is not an April Fools Day prank.
