“That means that no matter how we reform health care, we will keep this
promise to the American people: If you like your doctor, you will be able to
keep your doctor, period. If you like your health-care plan, you'll be able to
keep your health-care plan, period. No one will take it away, no matter what.”
President Obama, June 15, 2009. The "period" at the end of each statement makes
what he said even more emphatic as an implied guarantee to the American people.
“And if you like your insurance plan, you will keep it. No one will be able
to take that away from you. It hasn't happened yet. It won't happen in the
future.” President Obama, April 1, 2010. Again these are emphatic statements,
implying a surety.
Yet according to several news sources in 2010 the administration knew that
more than 40 to 67 percent of those in the individual market would not be able
to keep their plans, even if they liked them. Still Obama continued in 2012, he
was still saying , “If you already have health insurance, you will keep your
health insurance.”
Robert Laszewski, of Health Policy and Strategy Associates, a consultant
who works for health industry firms estimates that 80 percent of those in the
individual market will not be able to keep their current policies and will have
to buy insurance that meets requirements of the new law, which generally
requires a richer package of benefits than most policies today. Yet it is even
worse than stated and reported in the news. President Obama promised the
American people would be paying about $2,500 less for insurance. Just the
opposite is true. People will be paying dramatically higher insurance premiums
and dramatically higher deductibles, They will lose long standing relationships
with their doctors. Slicing right into the heart of the American people they
will be denied free choice and forced to take insurance that they do not want,
when they were previously very satisfied.
The hammer has yet to fall on seniors. Nearly 3/4 of a trillion dollars is
being taken out of Medicare. That means that doctor reimbursement rates will be
significantly reduced. Already many doctors are refusing new Medicare patients
due to this. Many seniors will have great difficulty in finding a doctor. Vital
medical care will be missing for seniors, and long delays for necessary care
will surely occur. Many seniors on fixed income will also experience all that
was said above about their supplemental insurance...canceled insurance, and if
they can get it, much higher premiums and deductibles. Seniors, under Obamacare
will be discriminated against. This is a violation of the Age Discrimination Act
of 1975. And it all by design, since the chief architect of Obamacare was Dr.
Ezekiel Emmanuel, who believes that seniors are not productive to society.
The American people were purposely lied to. It is more than lies, it is
pathological. Obamacare is not only a debacle in implementation; It is
an abomination. It will greatly increase cost to Americans and will result in a
much lower quality healthcare system for the American people. This is what
happens when you try to force something upon the American people against their
will.
Obamacare will result in the worse crisis foisted upon the American people
in the last 100 years.
