Obama: Gov't Run Healthcare Could Trump Private Plans

Here at TAB, we consistently warn our readers about this power-grab over your healthcare. I am warning our readers again. From the press show:

President Barack Obama says some employers might choose a government-run health care plan over private insurance, a major fear of the industry.

Critics say that's an egregious example of Washington forcing workers away from private insurance plans.

Isn't that the point--to have all Americans in the government run healthcare program. Read the rest from Obama here.

Didn't see the exemptions in the bill--which exempt ALL of Congress and ALL federal employees.

From the Wall Street Journal (June 22):

Last September Sen. Barack Obama promised that under his health-care proposal "you'll be able to get the same kind of coverage that members of Congress give themselves." On Monday, President Obama repeated that promise in a speech to the American Medical Association. It's not true. The president is barnstorming the nation, urging swift approval of legislation that is taking shape in Congress. This legislation -- the Affordable Health Choices Act that's being drafted by Sen. Edward Kennedy's staff and the Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee -- will push Americans into stingy insurance plans with tight, HMO-style controls. It specifically exempts members of Congress (along with federal employees; the exemptions are in section 3116).

Read it. Understand it. Own it. They are trying to strip you of your freedom.
