ObamaCare Forces 113 million From Private Insurance

The Heritage Foundation puts the finger on just one of many problems that are associated with the TRILLION dollar health care bill #3200 - forcing 113 million people out of there insurance into the night mare that is the "public option".

Yeah, I know, Obama says he will take the 'public option' out of the bill now but I think that is just a ruse to get people to take their eye off the ball, that is, to keep the pressure up to cancel the entire bill and start over with in put from grass roots. But this is something that Obama won't do.

This is his idea for controlling the general public for generations to come, forcing all Americas into a health care night mare that has played out as a disaster in Europe and Canada.

The Left fights back on Obamacare

Across the nation, Americans have turned out at town-hall meetings with their Congressmen to question the wisdom of the Left's health care plan. In response, some liberals are vocally attacking Obamacare's critics.

"Upset citizens on the Right have turned out in incredible numbers," writes Heritage fellow Ernest Istook. "It has put the Left on the defensive and in counter-attack mode."

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and Majority Leader Steny Hoyer (D-MD) have called Obamacare opponents "un-American." They charge that those who question the government takeover of medicine are "orchestrating outrage" by using "scare-tactics" and spreading "disinformation" about the President's plan. And White House deputy chief of staff Jim Messina vowed to "punch back twice as hard" and retaliate against dissenters.


The Left is now working to sanitize the town halls and prevent opponents from speaking out. One Big Labor-backed group is urging its members to overwhelm Obamacare critics with sheer numbers, Istook writes, while Congressmen are trying to duck the hard questions.
"Lost in the fight over the town-hall meetings," Heritage health policy expert Nina Owcharenko writes, "are the actual details of these bills."

Conservatives have hardly been able to get a word in edgewise in Congress, either. Owcharenko notes that liberals in Congress have often rejected even generous concessions and common-sense amendments offered by conservatives. One change that may have some life, however, is an amendment requiring members of Congress to forgo their lush plans and opt into the government plan.

But even if conservatives manage to tweak the plan around the edges, the overall proposal is still a terrible idea, writes Heritage economist Alison Fraser. "There are lots of bad ideas on the table in the health-reform debate."

But instead of listening to the opposition, the Left continues to push a $1 trillion government takeover of health care that, according to a study by the prestigious Lewin Group, will push 83 million people out of private-sector insurance, force 88 million out of their current, employer-provided insurance and dump 113 million into the "public option" health insurance plan.
