Twyla Grace is the Head of Citizens Council on Health Care in Minnesota and is a recognized Healthcare expert discusses Congressional healthcare reform activities. The current Congressional discussion is focused on health insurance reform. There are 3,000 "shall"s in the Bill which create an extensive structure of mandates. The individual is to purchase "insurance" as that is defined in the Bill. If he doesn't then he is required to pay a penalty which is enforced by the IRS and may include jail time. The mandates enunciate a standard for healthcare which allows the government to run the insurance industry and medical system. As currently articulated, this Bill will cause the loss of freedom of choice over types of insurance; loss of a citizen's right to control the amount of money spent for a purchase; loss of privacy as a tracking system will be created through a National Medical number; and, a loss of the choice of a health savings account option which was tax free.

Attorney Leslie Fourton is General Counsel to Gary Null.
Discusses challenges to FDA approval of Swine Flu Vaccine in New York & Washington DC. In New York, a Judge has granted a TRO for several groups to stop the State from implementing a mandatory requirement to receive the Swine Flu vaccine for State Employees. A Public Employees Union, a Nurses Group and the New York United Teachers Union oppose getting the vaccine as a condition of employment. The New York Health Department intends to vigorously defend its right to impose this requirement. On September 29, 2009, a Federal Appeals court refused to stop mandatory anthrax vaccines for service members. Plaintiffs argued that the information re efficacy obtained by the FDA was not credible. In the DC FDA case the arguments center on safety and efficacy. There is a conflict between the claim that there is a major worldwide pandemic of a new kind of flu on the one hand and the claim that what they're looking at is just another shift in the genetic strain. FDA hasn't looked at the source of this flu or how it began.
