Now we find that many of the studies used to "sell" this health care bill were extremely flawed and not only has our congress not addressed health costs, but it seems we could see our actual care be reduced in quality !

"As they followed one another off the political cliff in voting for the health-care overhaul, Democratic senators and representatives comforted themselves with their own self-created myth that, although ObamaCare was horribly unpopular as a bill, it would prove to be quite fetching as a law. Furthermore, this transformation, this change they could believe in, would take place sooner rather than later — as voters would reward rather than punish them for passing ObamaCare in clear and open defiance of popular will.
....."

"Unfortunately (from the perspective of ObamaCare supporters), a steady stream of revelations of previously undiscovered horrors buried in the bowels of ObamaCare appears to have more than negated any gains that the administration might otherwise have made."

I have posted a number of articles on the cost and finanacial mess this bill is going to create in this country, but we now find that our actual quality of care is going to suffer...

"Much of the focus on Obamacare has rightly been on its fiscal recklessness. But in a New York Times story —the type of story the Times couldn’t seem to find space for prior to Obamacare’s passage — we see a clear glimpse of the kind of care that Obamacare would likely spawn.


With the nomination brewing of Dr. Donald Berwick — a gushing admirer of the British National Health Service — to head Medicare and Medicaid and with Americans already clamoring for repeal in ever-greater numbers, the story, although tardy, is an important one."

And this is the link to the NY TIMES story referred to where information was given to congress by Dem leaders of this bill from an obsure study that now we find does not say what they say it does.

This issue, in my mind, has got to be a centerpiece of the November elections. We need to know where each candidate stands on this piece of legislation that is going to doom us for one reason.....

It was conceived for political reasons, by politicians, in back rooms by paying bribes. Health care in this country nor the costs of such health care was NEVER a goal or an issue !
