Where exactly in the bill is this?

There are a lot of items "on the table" depending on whom you talk to. My concern is what's actually *in* the bill. As opposed to what people *say* is in the bill.

Unfortunately, the opposition isn't critical of what their peers say. If *insert radio/tv show host* starting bitching about something in the bill, many take it as truth instead of investigating the facts. For instance, "Is the government really going to force grandma to sit down with a panel to determine how they're going to let her die?" Due Diligence isn't really the name of the game.

Now, I haven't payed any attention to HC since the Congressional break because nothing would have changed. The written Bill being debated hadn't changed, thus the points I have issue haven't changed. There is so much misinformation being spread, sometimes I forget what's up and down. Hopefully when fishbones reads this, he'll correct any possible errors I made.
