Healthcare lunacy and pandering

So the world waited for the much anticipated Hillary healthcare plan and as expected it uses words like choice, tax credits, cost control, etc to mask what it really does.

Hillary’s top policy adviser Neera Tandenb was quoted as saying “It puts the consumer in the driver’s seat by offering more choices and lowering costs”.  Actually it puts the consumer in the back seat with Hillary in the drivers seat driving us over a cliff.  This $110 Billion dollar a year boondoggle creates another federal bureaucracy because we don’t have enough of those.

One of the first glaring examples of the idiocy of this plan is that it mandates coverage for everyone.   You will not have the power to choose not to have coverage.  Many young people starting out elect to not have coverage because they are young and generally healthy.  So this removes choice.

Next we move on to the employer, we give small business another tax to keep track of and of course they get to pay for this in large part because at the end of the day it will be business that pays for it and in turn will have to reduce employees and raise prices of goods and services to pay for it.

Hillary thinks that she will remove the “Bush tax cuts on the rich” to pay for it.  Actually the correct term is the “Clinton tax increase on the middle class”, but that aside she wants to raise taxes thereby reducing the amount of revenue the government has to pay for this “plan”

As for Hillary’s assertion that this will cost only $110 Billion a year I have a rule when it comes to democrat math.  Whatever they say a program will cost double that number and it will be closer to reality so we can expect this to be a $220 Billion program when it is finally forced upon us.

Just another example that choice to Democrats only extends to killing children, not their healthcare.
