Obama wants to take my wealth and provide my healthcare. Doctors and hospitals now take my wealth and provide my healthcare. Where’s the “change” Barack?
Seriously, how can adding another layer of bureaucracy improve the healthcare system? Obama knows that it won’t; he just wants the additional power. It’s just another way to buy votes.
As I’ve mentioned before, there’s no guarantee that Obama’s plan will provide better healthcare to the poor. Since the poor don’t pay taxes they are a burden on the system. What is the incentive for a public healthcare system to keep them alive? Well, it could be their votes, but it now seems that being dead is no hindrance to voting.
I see a huge opening for Cuba. If Obama wins and socializes our healthcare system people with money will need an alternative source for healthcare. Michael Moore has already assured us that Cuba has a superb healthcare system, so Cuba should start exporting healthcare. It should establish opulent seaside and mountain healthcare resorts. I’ve heard that they are about to become an oil exporting country. With healthcare-tourism and oil Cuba could probably finance the welfare of all its citizens, finally making Castro’s great experiment a huge success. (They need not worry about the current travel and trade restrictions; Obama will surely lift those.)
