Obamacare will mean the end of Medicare as we know it today. The government will set arbitrary standards and anyone over certain ages will be denied various life saving and life extending care.

Obama's message has become so mangled and incomprehensible that I really don't know what it is he wants to do. So, I can only assume his socialist tendencies will ultimately guide him.

First, he wanted single government payer. Then, he didn't.
At first, it was to be about saving money. Then, it was about spending another trillion dollars. We were promised it would not interfere with our existing plans, then we have video of Obama saying it would take 15 years to get rid of employer plans. He wants to save money, yet tort reform -- pretty obviously the great single potential cost savings in the system -- is "off the table".

It is just all over the place. Find, let's solve the problems. But this just isn't the way to do it.
