Just like the Iraq war debate where everyone was up in arms about how it was going to cost us billions of dollars a year. . . . Oh, wait — that never happened.
Why? Because the people who supported the war — at the time the majority of Americans and Congress members — believed that our very lives were at risk and that invading Iraq was imperative to protecting American lives.
Anyone suggesting that we should consider costs is met with complete derision. Cost doesn’t matter when American lives are at stake, was the mantra…
But when it comes to health-care reform, Democrats and the Obama administration have ignored the big picture: Americans will die if we don’t provide universal health insurance. Instead, they’ve tried to sell a skeptical public on the idea that providing tens of millions of more Americans with health care is going to decrease health-care costs.
Nobody buys it; nor should they. It’s malarkey — an insulting argument and just one of many reasons American’s have so little appetite for ObamaCare.
