Free-Market Solutions | National Center for Policy Analysis | NCPA

At his press conference Wednesday night, President Obama admitted that the government will be intervening between you and your doctor. Only to prevent "unnecessary" care, he said but it will be the government, not the doctor who decides what's necessary. This is worrisome!
The nationalized health care plan proposed by President Obama calls for rationed care. Rationed care requires that patients forego medical procedures which fail to meet federal approval. Under nationalized health care, a bureaucrat will have the power to delay or deny care to a patient without regard for the patient's medical needs or for the physician's advice.

Did he say that this would include himself, his family, his staffers and all of the Congress members? I would say of course not...they are elite from us peasants.

Surely this doesn't come as a surprise, does it? Socialism and nanny government at their finest 'cause we American citizens are just too dumb to be responsible for ourselves.

This has already been addressed and found to be false. What RWNJs do is take something he says, then reword it to fit their hysteria and paranoia. Ignore this kind of crap, it rots your brain.

Apparently people don't care that there's already intervention between you and your doctor ... it's called INSURANCE COMPANIES!!!

Please, people, stop gulping John Mr. Orange Boehner's kool-aid ... your insurance company tells you who you can see, when you can see them and dictates the cost of and quality and quantity of care, not your doctor.

Oh no! Another breaking news from the Limbaugh crowd Somebody said that under the new plan, doctors will be making $12/hr. This is news for the uneducated.

Tell your doctor you'd like weekly chest x-rays and CT scans. Get back to me with your insurance company's response.
