WaPo: By the way, Obama's whole "If you like your plan, you can keep it" schtick is a lie

or vice versa...

Excellent question

Actually, Heritage estimates that 88.1 million people would lose their employer-based coverage and would be moved to the government dole.

There's one thing that puzzles me. If insurance companies have to compete with the "public plan," and start dropping (or are forced to drop, due to the draconian rule enforcement in these bills) policies due to revenue loss, what will be left to provide coverage to Congress and government workers?

I've seen predictions that health care providers will simply become empty shells pushing government paperwork, but since Congress now has a variety of plans to choose from, from these same providers, who and what will provide coverage for the elite?

1. Maybe they have finally figured out their job is to sell newspapers, not be a propaganda arm of the government.

I wouldn't bet much $$$ on that...........

Can't wait though....for some other paper to call the WaPo..racist!!

LOL!!!.....Like that's gonna happen either!

BO tells so many lies, it would be more newsworthy if he told the truth.

It’s still parsing, and they are a little late.

Thanks for posting, Bill. The statists are busy roughing-in the framework of another house of collectivism. They have many houses.

Knocking it down at the framing stage is a hell of a lot easier than storming the castle gates later.

Absolutely. We should have incorporated whack-a-mole tactics on these putrid progressive pustules in congress whenever they raised their disgusting heads 29 years ago.
