Last night, President Obama compared the insurance pool he proposes as akin to private colleges versus state universities. Seems to me that the private colleges cost far more than state schools and that without private endowments, they would ultimately fail. Sounds like what will happen to his health care plan…ultimately, he’ll put the private insurance companies out of business and we the American people will get stuck with one more government takeover.
Mr. Obama, WHY are we cramming this down in such a rush???

He is rushing it through so that no one will be able to find out what all the little earmarks, ammendments, and fines/taxes. When you have the Head Guy Sen. Baukus say in response to an ammendment that would ban all taxes and fines for those making under 250,000 a year “you just want to gut and kill the presidents bill…” now that says to me that they know our taxes are going up and we are going to bear the brunt of the cost. The faster it goes through the less we will know. Their total unwillingness to make sure it is posted for 72 hours before signing is a dead giveaway that they are hiding something, something that will hurt us.
