Is Obamacare like serving food to others you won't eat yourself?
The POTUS went absolutely SILENT! when he was asked if he would accept the same healthcare plan for HIS family.
Guess not!
As the Beatles wrote; "Taxman", "Piggies", "Hapiness is a Warm Gun" and "Revolution" their songs said it all; "Imagine" that.

But he is accepting the same healthcare plan for him and his family. The reforms state that you have to have health cover. That will apply to him, and his family just as it will apply to you.
The facts on the reforms are quite simple really.
FACT - Insurance companies in the USA admit to pushing up prices, buying politicians and not paying out claims when they should [a]
FACT - PER PERSON the USA spends more on healthcare than any other nation on the planet [b]
FACT - Obama debated his plans before the election for healthcare [c]
FACT - the chance of a child under five of dying in the USA is greater than industrialised nations with universal health coverage [d]
FACT - Obama was elected by the American people to bring in change [e]
FACT - Obama wants to stop insurance companies screwing the American people [f]
FACT - The reforms Obama wants work in the Netherlands and in Switzerland [g]
If anyone can prove the facts above are wrong, e-mail me and let me know.

Obamacare is more like a government catering company - everyone pays but just a select few will reap the benefits while the whole party is charged to the guests however the company selects the menu.

You can't eat everything. Sharing is good. This time we should give universal health care to our own people and not to a baby country that likes to bomb the people of neighboring nations.
