(CNSNews.com) – The new health care overhaul law – that promised increased access and efficiency in health care – will prevent doctor-owned hospitals from adding more rooms and more beds.

Baby steps everyone, baby steps.... The Obama method of converting this country to socialism.
The objective here is to put all of us into a lull by making small changes over a long period of time to the system. They appear harmless enough at first, then one day we're going to wake up and realize that our government rationed food supply box didn't show up. Crap, no food today!
