The Obama Administration: Business-management Amateur Hour
Introducing “Competition” to the Health Insurance Market
Francis Cianfrocca | RED STATE
There are many good reasons to have a deep conversation about how health insurance works in this country, because there is a lot of things wrong with it. What we’re getting from Obama and Congress, however, is a PR campaign designed to distract us from the fact that they would like to change not health insurance, but practically everything about health care itself.
Reports have it that Obama’s pollsters recently suggested that the President try to make the private insurance industry the villains of the piece. This has several virtues: it’s always rhetorically good to have a single, easily-demonized bad guy; and if it works, it conveniently will distract everyone from the fact that the true objective is far deeper than simply to make insurance cheaper for those who currently have none.
(What is the true objective? By God in Heaven, I wish I knew so we could debate it openly. But the true objectives of health reform are one thing Obama and Congress are keeping a deep dark secret.
Most who voted for him never bothered to ask for Obama’s resume … that was a national mistake.
