CBS Confirms ObamaCare Would Oust People from Health Insurance and Doctor

CBS, of all news outlets, is setting a high standard for ABC to meet Wednesday in its broadcasts from the White House. On Tuesday night, just a week after a “Reality Check” on how President Obama's claim that his government-expansion health care plan won't hike the deficit doesn't match reality, the CBS Evening News aired a story on how his plan would likely force many to lose their current health insurance and/or doctor.

Katie Couric noted “72 percent of Americans say they favor a government plan that would compete with private insurers,” but “at the same time, nearly two-thirds are concerned that would reduce the quality of their own health care. And some experts believe they're right to be worried.”

Social Security, Medicare, Welfare, Postal Service, Amtrak etc. When the Government is the business manager of anything the service/business suffers.
Unlike a private company that has to answer to the bottom line,the Government answers to nothing. if you say well they answer to the people then the joke is on you.

CBS confirms "news" that anyone paying attention already knows.

I'm sure the "All Barack Channel" will confirm this with their infomercial featuring Pitchman Series Star Barry O'Bahma.

While you're working and able to have healthcare, either by your workplace picking it up and/or share/cost, everything is fine.

But, be out of work for a while...and you likely no longer can afford it. For a family...the cost is ridiculous.

So what does the Fed want.....They want YOU...totally dependent on the government...from cradle to grave....along with the right to make decisions. Euthanasia by gov (can you say medicare) is right around the corner.

BARACK OBAMA: What I'm saying is the government is not going to make you change plans under health reform.

Will his followers now begin to see through this lying, deceiving poser-in-chief? Everyone who's half paying attention knows many employers are just itching to drop their medical insurance benefit the second a government plan is available. The government plan would eventually be the only choice a big majority of Americans would have for health coverage.

I smell a setup. No way Katie Couric delves into objective journalism.

But 0bama said it is “illogical” to think that private insurers would be driven out of business.

oh my, who to believe?

Because Congress stuck their noses in it years ago and forced insurance companies to cover all kinds of stuff that there really is no need to cover, which drove the costs up to unaffordable.

Leftists don’t understand the free market.
They actually DENY the principles on which it works.
