Unfortunately, Obama really didn’t propose much of anything as far as health care reform other than charging Congress with the responsibility of drafting health care reform legislation. He proposed a general concept and has provided little or no leadership, and the resulting disasters that were drafted in the House and the Senate are nothing more than a list of individual proposals related to health care that will only make things more complicated, and therefore more costly and impractical. Except, of course, for the fact that nothing will get passed in Congress because the public is so afraid of “socializing” anything except for corporate bailouts.
Obama at no time has proposed any type of nationalized health care, and has backed off any proposals that might even seem like such a proposal. The majority of the US public seems perfectly comfortable with the current disaster because the majority of the people don’t really use the “system” much and have no idea how bad things really are, and won’t until they lose their job when they’re in their 50’s and realize that they can’t buy health insurance for less than $3,000/month and they will be headed straight for bankruptcy if they encounter any serious health issues prior to qualifying that awful socialized program, Medicare.
