or as I like to call it, Pee-pee and Ca-Ca (Spanish and French for poop). Liberals like to claim it will reduce the deficit by $143 billion the first decade, and $1.2 Trillion the second. Tell me the truth. Have you ever seen a government program, under any president or congress, actually shrink anything? Until Obama, a Democrat, the biggest spender on social programs was George W. Bush, a Republican. Obama has taken us to new heights of government control and new depths of hostility toward the market system which grew this country.
No one really believes these deficit reduction figures, not even the Democrats, Socialists and Obamacons who preach them. We know there won't be more consumer choice and that there will be millions still uninsured (the purpose of all this, we were told when Obama was in campaign mode). We know private practices will close due to increased taxes; that there will be death panels, regardless of whether you call them that. And why not, when we've elected a man who believes in late term abortion--why not early on eternal rest? The only way to cut costs is to cut services. Growing government has never saved a dime. Bailing out unions or insurance companies or automobile companies is not the government's job, and it's a given that eventually the "public option" will be the only option for Pee-Pee and Ca-Ca.

You got that right! When you add 30+ million more people to the health insurance roles and then you provide huge disincentives to health care providers, simple supply and demand econmics tells you what the outcome will be.
You have more people now demanding services from far fewer doctors. The result will be increased costs, longer waiting times, and rationing.
Who is typically the least productive in the progressives' eyes? Those that are elderly or retired, since they are not contributing income taxes as much anymore. The resulted rationing will therefore affect them the most... i.e. death panels by whatever name you choose to call them.
