Three lies about ObamaCare that kill the bill.

Here are three of things the health care reform bill will not do:

1. It will not insure 31 million Americans. Those who do not want the expense of insurance coverage, 17 million adult young people, will simply pay the $500 fine (per year) rather than spend $4000 per year on coverage. Their premium payments will not be there and taxes will increase as the "Reform" sucks the life-blood out of the taxpaying public. Another 7 million are too poor to be able to afford forced health care coverage and the taxpayer will be asked to pay that bill, as well.

2. Accessibility will not increase. We cannot add millions to the health care rolls without adding millions of doctors to the professional community. You cannot add doctors if you are telling them they must be servants of your administration of health rather than servants of the people, in a direct sense. Certainly, many will become medical professionals, good folk who care about people and are not working to become rich. But the fact remains, that conscripted service is not what our medical professionals had in mind. They did not take 8 to 10 years out of their lives to wind up working for the Feds. They did not borrow $300,000 dollars for the privilege of serving Uncle Sam. Many of these of these prospective medical professionals will simply find other employment.

Understand that current intern programs nation wide do not employ enough incoming "new" doctors and nurses as it is. When you add millions to the health care rolls, you have made an impossible situation completely unsustainable.

3. It will not provide any net savings to this nation's spending habits. Pelosi claims this reform will save 1.4 trillion dollars. She is not talking about tax savings. She is not talking about verifiable savings. Rather, she is talking about savings due to preventative care. Its kind of like "jobs created or saved." She does not know if this is 1.4 trillion dollars or 4 hundred dollars. What we do know, for certain, is that the first fully functioning ten year period of healthcare will cost the taxpayer between 2.3 trillion (CBO) and 6 trillion according to Midknight Review's purview of a number of economist's opinions.

Let's not forget that we already have a national health care program -- its called Medicare and it is 38 trillion dollars in the hole. Its sister program, Medicaid, is 17 trillion in debt. Why would anyone, in their right mind, suppose that ObamaCare will be any different?

And that's the problem, isn't it? The part about "in their right mind." --- jds.
