Obama Not So Smart on Healthcare

- Scott Miller

My apologies for being “out of the pocket” the past couple days… between the job that pays, two great kids that deserve a Dad’s attention, and a couple days of R&R where I started reading the Great One’s, Mark Levin’s, newest masterpiece “Liberty and Tyranny” (book review coming soon… let me just say, you have to buy this book) … getting in front of the laptop was tough to do.

That said, I’m back and ready to take on the statists, as they are on the verge to attempting to ram through socialized healthcare and a huge national energy tax that the eco-commies are pushing hard.

Today Obama held (surprise) another press conference where he said amongst other things, this:

Now, I’ve always though that Obama was a relatively bright guy, but I gotta’ tell ya’, I’m not so sure after hearing this answer. Can it be that his blinding love for all things government has his common sense this cloudy?

He thinks he’s being clever when he mock the critics saying that ‘they’re afraid of competing with a public option and yet they say government can’t run anything… that doesn’t make logical sense to him’… I really don’t think he gets it.

Of course anyone with a shred common sense can see that if a so-called “public option” (read government healthcare) were allowed to compete with private insurers, private insurers will be out of business in no time. Why? It’s simple…. the government doesn’t have to make a profit to stay in business. Period. Look around… Obama thinks he can spend and print as much money as he wants, national debt be damned. So what’s to keep the government insurance company (who said Obama’s not a socialist) from putting up a gold-plated plan at a very low cost, subsidizing the cost through government debt… which will ultimately force private profit-driven insurance companies out of business.

This is their real plan… this is how they plan to backdoor a national, one size fit all, rationing, poor quality, socialized medicine plan in America. They know the American people wouldn’t go for a Canadian/Britain style plan if they try to do it on the up-and-up, so the statists scheme to backdoor socialized medicine through the innocuous sounding “public option” plan.

Don’t believe me? Here’s a Democrat Congresswoman, Jan Schakowsky from Chicago, saying essentially the same thing… from Breitbart.tv:

Dem Congresswoman Admits Obama Health Care Plan Will Destroy Private Health Insurance Industry

“I know many of you here today are single payer advocates and so am I … and those of us who are pushing for a public health insurance don’t disagree with this goal. This is not a principled fight. This is a fight about strategy for getting there and I believe we will,”

Interesting that the YouTube video of her admitting the strategy has been pulled down… hmmmm.

Here’s the Heritage foundation explaining how their backdoor plan is currently structured:

Morning Bell: The Unprincipled Fight for Government-Run Health Care

Recent SCHIP expansion and additional Medicaid funding in the stimulus package made a substantial down payment on major expansion of government run health programs. Established research shows that a public health plan will ”crowd out” private insurance, forcing millions of Americans off their current plans, and away from their family doctors. A public health plan, coupled with Comparative Effectiveness Research, would engineer artificially lower prices for medical services through the imposition of Medicare-style price controls. Such Medicare-style payment levels would undercut the market share of existing private health plans, and, combined with a mandate on employers, stack the incentives against workers in private employer-based health insurance by encouraging their employers to dump them into a new government-run health plan. Watch the video of Rep. Schakowksy’s statements on The Foundry. She clearly admits that the purpose of the government run option is to kill private insurance so everyone eventually is forced into government-run health care.

Moving all Americans into a government-run health care system will not only bankrupt our country, but will lead to less innovation in the health care sector and lower quality care for all Americans. There is an alternative. Some of which the Obama Administration even supports like removing the tax benefit of employer-sponsored health care coverage which will untie Americans health care coverage from their employers and help move the country towards a truly market based consumer driven health care model. Health care coverage can be expanded in a cost efficient manner, but only by empowering Americans to make health care decisions with their doctors.

Now watch that clip again, and see if you find Obama credible when he say ‘oh yeah… you’ll be able to keep your private plan… no problem’…

Sotomayor seemed like the obvious choice for Barack Obama. Not only does she share his understanding of the Constitution, that the Constitution can be molded into whatever a Justice wants, but her ethnicity will be used as a weapon against…
