Obama told us we would have FREE health care.
Then he promised us that the uninsured would be insured.
We were then promised an average $2,500 per household decrease in costs.
Face it folks.
Obama is a typical socialist left wing progressive LIAR. SF
The biggest political problem faced by so-called “liberals” and so-called “progressives” in President Obama’s second term is how to prevent voters from holding them politically responsible as the public comes to realize how badly they were lied to during the first Obama term to win passage of Obamacare.
Most supporters of Obamacare embraced it because of a principled belief
that everyone should have access to essential healthcare. But even the
establishment, still Democrat dominated, CBO admits that after 10 years
of implementation, Obamacare will still leave 30 million uninsured.
We will see why that is a woeful underestimate.
Even worse, John Goodman and I explain how universal health
care for all can be assured without Obamacare, with no coercive
individual mandate, no job-killing employer mandate, and a savings to
taxpayers of roughly $2 trillion over the next 10 years. (Hint: true
health care safety net, plus market incentives and competition. See
John C. Goodman and Peter Ferrara, Health Care for All Without the Affordable Care Act,
Issue Brief No. 116, National Center for Policy Analysis, Dallas,
Texas, October 17, 2012. That has been explained in this column
before. But too many “progressives” see market incentives and
competition as a fascist fraud against working people.)
Just wait until the broad realization dawns that the harsh reality of Obamacare is that tens of millions will lose their
employer provided insurance because of the perverse incentives under
the program. Even the establishment CBO admits that at least 7 million,
and as many as 20 million, will lose their employer coverage. In
February, CBO reported that “in 2019 [5 years after Obamacare is
implemented], an estimated 12 million people who would have had an offer
of employment-based coverage under prior law will lose their offer
under current law [aka ‘Obamacare’].”
