In anticipation of President Obama's speech to a joint session of Congress this evening, the Center for Individual Freedom released a new video entitled "ObamaCare and America's Entitlement Kids," which highlights the fundamental flaws in President Obama's plan to reform health care.
The video points out that U.S. spending obligations for current entitlements, including Medicare and Social Security, is already more than $51 trillion. Broken down by household, that's the equivalent of forcing every American family to bear the costs of raising two additional children.
But instead of fixing the entitlement problem, President Obama's health care plan would add an additional $9 trillion in entitlement obligations. That's like adding one-third of another government child to the two each American household is already forced to support.
Watch the video below.
