I’m sure you all recall Obama’s frequent remark that if you like your current doctor you will be able to stay with him or her, and if you like your current insurance you’ll be able to keep it.

But on page 16 of the over 1,000 page health care bill is a provision that states  that private health care will be illegal.

This glaring inconsistency with what was promised by President Obama prompted Investor’s Business Daily to contact the House Ways and Means Committee for clarification.

An editorial in the Investor’s Business Daily states: 

“The provision would indeed outlaw individual private coverage. Under the Orwellian header of “Protecting The Choice To Keep Current Coverage,” the “Limitation On New Enrollment” section of the bill clearly states:

“Except as provided in this paragraph, the individual health insurance issuer offering such coverage does not enroll any individual in such coverage if the first effective date of coverage is on or after the first day” of the year the legislation becomes law.”

In light of this revelation, still more credibility is given to what opponents of government-run health care have said all along, namely, that it would cause many private businesses to stop offering health coverage to their employees, forcing people no choice but to opt in to the government plan.

There are bad ideas, then there are absurd, childlike notions, and clearly this whole government health care idea falls into the latter category.

Despite horror stories from Canada and the UK, righteous, indignant democrats insist they know what is best for the unwashed masses.

Fight this!
