The American people are running into
the reality of Obamacare. Despite statements by President Obama that people could keep their current health care insurance, that's not true.
The White House has issued a clarification. When the president said
if you like your insurance plan you can keep it, what he meant was you
can keep it if he likes it.
Hundreds of thousands of
Americans who are getting policy cancellation notices this month can't
be as surprised as they pretend to be. President Obama made it clear at
his 2010 health care summit what he thought of their taste in insurance.
And,
Not only was it deliberate ObamaCare
policy to make sure plans millions of Americans like would no longer be
available, forcing them to buy more coverage than they want or need.
NBC reports that the White House—as Mr. Obama was promising Americans
they could keep their current plans—was estimating at least seven
million people would not be allowed to keep their current plans.
In drafting rules to put ObamaCare into effect, the Health and Human Services department under
Kathleen Sebelius
tightened the grandfathering eligibility to make sure even more
people would be forced to switch to the excessively costly policies that
Mr. Obama wants them to buy. Mr. Obama says he cares about your
incentive to get preventive care or tests that you may not get if they
don't appear to involve a free lunch.
But the truth is, he wants
you to pay for coverage you'll never use (mental-health services,
cancer wigs, fertility treatments, Viagra) so the money can be spent on
somebody else.
Socialism doesn't work. Eventually the truth comes out. Of course they will press on and seek to make it work.
