Obamacare 2

Some quotes I found tremendously disturbing from the anointed one last night.

“Now, the truth is that, unless you have a — what's called a single-payer system, in which everybody is automatically covered, then you're probably not going to reach every single individual”

The avowed stance of the left has been and continues to be that not enough people have access to health care and that 1 person without it is too many. I believe that he and the other Dems are actively working towards a single payer/socialist system. Once this version is passed and the insurance industry starts to crumble (and it will) the Dems will complain complete nationalized healthcare for every American is the next logical step in the process.

He goes on to say “no insurance company will be allowed to deny you coverage because of a pre-existing medical condition”

While this sounds good in a sound bite, the reality is that he’s freezing insurance company’s ability to operate with the sound business principles it takes to stay profitable. If a business is not profitable, under any system, socialist or capitalist, it cannot continue to operate. In the novel “Atlas Shrugged” there is a scene where the government declares a freeze in every aspect of every business pending review by a government appointed board with a Czar. The law prohibits companies from producing less, selling less and firing anyone or allowing anyone to quit without federal oversight or permission. All this does to businesses (in the novel) is quicken industry’s collapse and the resultant collapse of that society. Obama’s similar limitation on the freedoms of the insurance industry does NOTHING but move us further toward a single payer/socialist healthcare system.

And in the biggest big brother moment of the speech he is asked, “Do you think…the American people are going to have to give anything up in order for this to happen?”

Obama’s A: “They're going to have to give up paying for things that don't make them healthier.”

He makes a similar statement later about a nutritionist seeing a diabetic to “make sure” he eats like he’s supposed to eat. Couple this with the momentum for sin taxes on junk foods, sodas and other things and sooner or later they’re going to try and do all of our thinking for us. But what disturbs me is that right now we seem willing to let them.

We are on a rocket sled to hell with this program and the fuse is being lit as we speak. The only way to stop it is to call your Congressional representatives and give them hell for taking us down this path.
