Paraphrased from Obamacare, by Dick Morris (former advisor to Bill Clinton)
The Obama plan is a giant tax increase for much of the American people (not just the rich).
According to the Congressional Budget Office, the average uninsured person or family will have to pay between 15 and 20 percent of his or their total income on health insurance
Having spent the entire campaign speaking [Obama speaking] about "affordable" coverage, it turns out the program is not at all affordable, but a massive new tax on the average uninsured American.
The $500 billion cut in Medicare that will pay for the bulk of the subsidy? We are slicing services to the elderly in order to transfer healthcare to others [illegals, legals, one the dole, those who don’t particularly care to work, etc.].
Most of the cuts will be in reimbursement for doctors and hospitals. That will lead to less care, shorter office visits, fewer tests, fewer surgeries and less care. And it will lead to fewer doctors.
So if you are insured, you will increasingly have to pay 35 percent more for the privilege. And if you are uninsured, you will have to pay one-fifth of your income in premiums, deductibles and co-payments before any subsidy kicks in.
I don't think any of the above are what you voted for when you voted for this administration. Is it?
