The smugness of those attacking Ms. Gottlieb as somehow being not fully human for not wanting to shell over thousands of dollars more a year for less care says all you need to know as to why this country still has U6 unemployment in the teens and economic stagnation not seen in decades.
Mandating “charity” may assuage the guilt of shallow souls but true charity comes from the individual, from the heart, with true meaning and caring, it does not originate in the cubicles at HHS.
Obamacare does nothing to lower the cost curve, does nothing to bring control back to the patient, limits access, ignores the need for tort reform (yep, dems still love their trial lawyers), reduces the amount and effectiveness of personal health savings accounts, raises taxes on everything from medical devices to selling a home, and in the end, even the CBO states it will still leave tens of millions “uninsured”.
The fact that so many still defending the hype of a program that at its core is more about control of the individual than affordable, accessible healthcare speaks volumes of the current level of ignorance and lack of critical thought running rampant through American society today.
Ok that was one comment out of how many?
Brilliant comment, 2DV. You probably haven’t, but you really should have posted that in the comments section at the NYT article.
That’s the sort of reasoned analysis that wakes up those who are close to seeing the light.
