The American Nomenklatura and the Health Care Debate

In a previous post I discussed the fact that Obama has no interest in restricting himself or his family to any government controlled health care system.

OBAMA OPTS OUT OF OBAMACARE While Obama thinks that your medical care may have to be discontinued and you may just have to take painkillers until you're dead; for himself he has other plans.

Without question, the most damaging moment for Obama came when he acknowledged that in spite of the rationing implicit in his public health care plan, he would still pay out-of-pocket to obtain the best health care for his family. As reported by ABC’s Jake Tapper, “President Obama struggled to explain today whether his health care reform proposals would force normal Americans to make sacrifices that wealthier, more powerful people – like the president himself – wouldn’t face.”

I wrote my Senators and Senator Jim Webb (D-VA) replied. Part of his e-mail is reprinted below.

Dear [Moneyrunner]:

Thank you for contacting me regarding health care reform. I appreciate your taking the time to share your views and concerns.

As you know, addressing the health care crisis in our country is a top priority for me and my colleagues in Congress

Is Obama signalling the doctors that the reason to support this is that “THE RICH” (like himself) will fork over the life savings to save lives??

There won’t be very many “rich” left under Obamanomics, if he gets his way, but not all of the “rich” are aware of this point.
In the past, lefty Presidents simply wanted a larger piece of the INCOME generated from the investments of the “rich” -— This Marxist, Obama, is attacking wealth, itself!

he acknowledged that in spite of the rationing implicit in his public health care plan, he would still pay out-of-pocket to obtain the best health care for his family.

Was he being honest, or "in your face?"

I agree wholeheartedly he is a Marxist—and every Russian I know always discusses how “the rich” in their country have the dachas, etc., whatever they want, and TAKE PLEASURE in denying it to others...
