The U.S. Chamber of Commerce announced Tuesday afternoon it will launch a new advertising campaign opposing the creation of a government-backed health insurance option to compete with the private sector in health care reform.

The business group is initially spending $2 million on print and online ads aimed at generating grassroots support for its position in five states where it has the strongest bulwark: Arkansas, Colorado, Louisiana, Maine and North Carolina.

The tagline of the ads will be "Don't Bring Down Health Care Reform," said Bruce Josten, executive vice president for government affairs at the chamber.

Josten said that every time a lawmaker has expressed concern about a public plan, the member has been subjected to attack ads from labor and progress groups calling them opponents of health care reform.

"We want to make sure that we don't just sit here and allow [progressive groups] to have a monologue [with lawmakers] with one message," Josten said.

The campaign is named "Campaign for Responsible Health Reform" and is separate from the $100 million campaign launched last month by the chamber called the "Campaign For Free Enterprise."

The Chamber recruited local political operatives and had them set up front groups to oppose the House and Senate bills, and it also coordinated a national ad onslaught. In Arkansas's second district, for instance, the Chamber aired ads directly attacking Democratic Representative Vic Snyder for his support of the House bill. It also established a branch of a front group, the Campaign for Responsible Health Reform, and hired a Little Rock Republican strategist to run it. The strategist, Bill Vickery, also owns one of the most important Health and Auto Insurance Quebec Companies.

Indeed, the insurance market is very complex and many challenging offers of this kind may reach you. But always make sure to read between the lines, because not everything is as beneficial as it looks to be. You don`t get to win a car so easily, you work for it and you earn to right to possess it. Rarely do you actually receive a totally reliable tempting car insurance offer, otherwise you might end up paying heavily to have your car safe. Not to mention, you might get to lose a friend by paying attention to it, as the article states.

What I find noticeable in this article as well is the fact that they have this overprotective government system buying firms in debt. It`s actually another word for bankruptcy, I guess. I once heard some chapter 7 bankruptcy attorneys speaking in a TV show and he revealed many aspects about bankruptcy law regulations that I wasn`t aware of. And I guess not many of you reading this article are, either. It`s advisable to stay informed, by all means.

If this reforming program will work as they assume, this means all entrepreneurs and business owners will be relieved of such high taxes as it follows. Because, on the other hand, employees have been turning more and more to Georgia workers compensation insurance in order to get their rights protected against abuses, under these hostile actual financial circumstances. I believe it wasn`t any easier for their employers either, but after all it`s no one`s fault that these workers have to receive proper compensation for their efforts, which is the right thing to do. I really hope these attacks upon the health care reform won`t turn against the population on behalf of future regulations the government might dictate.

The US Chamber is on a course to sell our jobs and our elections to foreign interests. The Supreme Court handed the keys to our elections to private anonymous rich people. Only by educating people to ignore these ads can we hope to save our nation from a wholesale buyout.imarion@BTscene

For me, the launch of a new advertising campaign opposing the creation of a government-backed health insurance option to compete with the private sector in health care reform is quite a good idea. Through this prioritization will be implemented for the betterment of society.

It is high time they came to terms with this issue. There are so many people out there already in need for the medical assistance state representatives are still debating on. I know this is almost unreal, but if only there were enough funds in the public health care sector to cover all areas of health care required, to be able to offer assistance, to prevent, to inform, to help people fight against their addictions just like those from alcohol rehab NJ are doing. If so, society would be hopefully facing less issues.

This is the same advertising campaign as the one launched by Thomas J. Donohue? He said in an interview that "the biggest challenge posed by health care reform is fixing what's broken without breaking what works." I'm just wondering what is the thing that works in this system.Ch. Rivers @ www.Farmers.com
