New Health-Care Campaign slogan emerges:  Buy American-- Don't Buy ObamaCare; Barack Obama, Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi in State of Panic.·

August 6, 2009--

            Just as Barack Obama, Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi have launched the "Harry & Nancy" attack on all who oppose ObamaCare as being a "mob" or "right-wing extremists," a new health-care slogan emerges:  "Buy American-- Don't Buy ObamaCare."  This new campaign is putting "Harry & Nancy" as well as Dr. Obama in a state of panic.

            As will be shown in a soon-to-be-released video, "Stripping Away Health Care Myths," the opposition to ObamaCare has exploded not because of "misinformation" against it by right-wingers but rather as a result of too many Americans learning the contents of the proposal which the vast majority of proponents in Congress haven't even read yet.  Thus, it appears that the once seemingly unstoppable juggernaut for ObamaCare is on the verge of being cut-off at the knees.

OB-Gyn Health Care Under ObamaCare Exposes Obfuscation on Government Plan Pre-emption of Private Plans..·

By Jim Wrenn,

July 29, 2009--   (20090802 Update)

            A visit to the OB-Gyn exposes obfuscation of ObamaCare proposals for government-plan pre-emption of private health-care plans or insurance consistent with Barack Obama's July 21, 2009, admission that he's "not familiar" with key provisions of the plan he, Pelosi and Reid want to have enacted before the August, 2009, Congressional recess.  Some sources indicate the legislative proposals for ObamaCare may be on the verge of reaching critical mass before the August recess despite "conventional wisdom" that Pelosi and Reid don't have the votes to enact it before then.  Scroll down for video of a visit to the OB-Gyn exposing such obfuscation.

            Despite the attempts at obfuscation, there are sources for accurate information about the status, intended effects and likely effects of proposals for ObamaCare.  Among the more ridiculous aspects of the current debate over "reforming" our "health care system" is the left's mantra that one of the greatest needs is to "eliminate" exclusion of "pre-existing conditions."  No one seems to be willing to counter this argument by pointing out that the problem of "pre-existing conditions" was created by the government's enactment of legislation decades ago in the form of social engineering though manipulation of the income-tax laws to discourage individuals from acquiring and maintaining their own medical-care insurance by incentivizing employers to provide health-care coverage to their employees.  That's what caused the "pre-existing condition" problem in the first place-- i.e., when an employee changes from one job to another, the new insurer quite naturally doesn't want to insure a "pre-existing condition."  

            If the government were to have left the free market alone decades ago, competition would have generated availability of affordable medical insurance marketed to individuals as their own policies, under which circumstances an individual's change of employment would have no effect on such individual's medical insurance coverage.  Are there current proposals to remedy this problem?  Of course there are. 

            Currently, too little attention is being paid to free-market proposals for transitioning to such a system under which each individual employee would become the "owner" of any insurance coverage currently being provided by an employer with the funds being paid by the employer being deemed funds owned by the employee and with income-tax laws adjustments to exclude such funds from taxable income (but sensibly treating the employer's payment of same as deductible just as any other form of income paid by an employer to an employee is deductible from the employer's gross income).  

            Why are none in the media focusing on such common-sense proposals?   Could it be that the dominant media has a "dog in the race" in that the dominant media is as ideologically in favor of "government" health care (single-payer) as are Barack Obama, Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid and the rest of the leftists in Congress.  No wonder the dominant media don't want to shed light on common-sense proposals? 

            What should voters do?  They should instruct their representatives and senators to "take a deep breath" and defer consideration of proposals for "health care reform" until after the 2010 elections.  By then, enough people would have had enough time to read the thousands of pages in the current proposals to understand that they don't want anything remotely like what Obama, Pelosi, Reid, and the rest of the leftists in congress are currently attempting to ram down the country's throat.

            This is an issue on which Sarah Palin ought to be campaigning as often as possible between now and the 2010 elections in favor of every candidate (Republican or Democrat) who opposes ObamaCare, Cap and Trade taxation/regulation, redistribution of wealth, and the rest of Obama's far-left agenda.
