What do we know about Barack Hussein Obama?
We know he is a guy who despite being a nobody in the political world had the audacity to publish two autobiographies about himself: Dreams From My Father: A Story of Race and Inheritance, 1995, and Audacity of Hope: Thoughts on Reclaiming the American Dream, 2006. [...]

During a Wednesday-evening press conference, President Obama spent most of his time answering questions about his proposed plan to reform America’s health care system. Now, I have two doctorates, two master’s degrees, and a bachelor’s degree, and I still don’t understand the Obama plan. Keep in mind that I’m a [...]
White House Economic Report is “only a rough measure” of a Justification for Reform

Nobody disagrees that access to healthcare coverage is important for all Americans. Everybody also agrees that healthcare coverage is expensive. Regardless of who is paying, being sick or injured is going to cost something. So it is obviously more “expensive” to be sick or to get injured than it is to be healthy. After reading the government’s recent “Economic Case for Health Care Reform” it brought up several questions and uncertainties that I have about the government’s intentions to “fix” the healthcare system. Below are my reactions to several of the statements in this rather confusing economic report. Please read their report thoroughly if you would like to better understand the government’s justification for healthcare reform. I’m not suggesting that you will find a good reason for reform in the report, in fact you may find a lot of inconsistencies, broad generalizations, assumptions, odd math, dozens of wishy-washy terms, a variety of hypothetical statements based on fuzzy math, etc. In fact, this report does NOT detail a plan for reform. Rather it is a report written by economists that dwells on the % of GDP that is being spent on healthcare. Regardless, it is a critically important document because it is the economic justification for the Obama administration’s campaign for healthcare reform, or ‘fix healthcare now.’

With Obamacare increasingly becoming the focus in Washington, it is important to highlight the horrors of government-run universal health care in other countries so it can be stopped here.
Here’s are two recent stories on how government health care affects cancer treatment:

The U.S. Foreign Policy Circus

The current foreign policy stance held by the Obama administration, being heralded on the left as the way back into the good graces of other countries (including ones that want to destroy us), has been like watching a circus. President Obama is the ringleader with his blame America speeches and our State Department, [...]

It struck me this week how utterly disillusioned Henry Ford would surely be if he were alive to see this. I mean, he founded the Ford Motor Company over 100 years ago, and after all of the consolidation in the U.S. auto industry in the past century, his company is the only one of the remaining “big three” that’s solvent (not doing particularly well, but still in business, without taxpayer dollars). Henry Ford (and his heirs and shareholders) won.

Bottom line: Other Countries Cut Out Services to Reach their Low Cost Status

Will a single payer health care system hold down the increasing cost of health care in the United States? President Obama and other proponents of this socialized form of health care argue that it will. Of course there are many ways to debate this question, but much objective evidence suggests that it will not. Let’s look at this from two perspectives. First, what does the comparative cost data between the United States and government controlled health care systems (such as Canada) tell us? Second, what are the financial implications of this “less expensive,” government controlled health care system for the American taxpayer?
Is Universal Health Care a Moral Issue?

It’s an interesting question and one that isn’t easily answered. I don’t know anyone who would see someone suffering and not want them to seek medical help. After careful consideration, I believe to force upon our country a universal health care plan is immoral.
There have been many figures announcing how many people in [...]
