Socialized medicine by chimps for chumps.

The Democrats’ health-care “reform” plan has little to do with reform. “Reform” is to the Dem health plan as reducing cholesterol intake is to replacing your existing healthy heart with the heart of a chimpanzee.

Obama Care, writes Robert Tracinski “is designed to push us out of our existing private health insurance plans and into a government-controlled plan”:
So we get socialized medicine either way. The only "choice" we have is between two different variations of socialist economics: communism and fascism. The health insurance plans offered through the exchange are based on the "fascist economic model: they are private in name only, with every aspect actually dictated by government. The "public option" is the economics of communism: the pretense of private ownership has been dropped, and everything is openly owned and run by government.

This false choice is just another way to bamboozle the public into the left's dream of a government-run health-care system.
Follow the link in the passage just quoted if you doubt the accuracy of the term “fascist economic model.”

Also read the story by Vern Hodgins about his and his wife’s experience with the Canadian health care system. It is not, not to put too fine a point on it, a patient-centered system.

It is just another control mechanism. As people are asking real questions and what real reform, Obama and Pelosi are about sneaking this thing they've somewhat presented...really misrepresented...and that should tell everyone something of its worth.

You're right there, Greg. This is not about "reform" it's about massive, reckless, irresponsible fiddling with something that's not broken.
