The Democrats and the Obama administration plan to herd you into the pit of government-run health care in much the same way native Americans once herded buffalo off cliffs. Here’s how it works:
Create a public plan that will compete with your private insurance company.
Use your tax dollars to subsidize the premiums and coverage of the public plan.
Mandate the benefits that your private insurance must provide, without providing the subsidy.
Tax the benefits associated with your private or employer-based plan.
In other words, they will create powerful financial incentives for you (and everyone else) to go to the public plan. And, when you plunge into the abyss, the private coverage market will follow.
Then, like those writhing bison at the bottom of the ravine, you will be at the mercy of those who ran you off the cliff. But don’t take my word for it. Listen to the President and his accomplices:
