Repealing Obamacare

   



     I see Obama is commenting on the NFL referee strike. Since the economy is doing so well, I guess he has time for other things to worry about. The Robertson/Falls 2012 Campaign however is still focused on the real issues. The final law of the first ten I would pass under my administration is.... Repealing Obamacare.
     I know this has stirred up a lot of people but lets take a step back and think this thing out. The bill is well over 1000 pages. Most in congress didn't read the bill before they voted on it. Do you remember Nancy Pelosi telling us they needed to pass the bill so they could see what was in it? Is this really a way to solve a problem? And doesn't it prove that we don't need this kind of mentality running our health care? Also, what was the issue in the first place? Roughly 15% of the population didn't have health insurance. So to help them, we have now changed everybody's health insurance. Obama sold this thing as health care for everybody but what it really does is makes everyone have insurance whether they want it or not. Think about it, guaranteed customers for the health insurance industry. A lot of people said this was needed to help the poor but if you're poor you already had Medicaid. Another issue with Obamacare is its filled with crap people just don't know about. There is a 10% tax on indoor tanning facilities. Tanning facilities??? The best one is that a bill that is suppose to cut health cost has a tax on medical instrument makers. Does that make sense.
     Just like in the student loan example, you have to get government money out of the system to cut cost. Think about Boob Jobs, 20 years ago they were expensive and still somewhat dangerous. They have become cheaper and safer while not having federal money fund the procedures. They are an example of market forces creating a cheaper and better product for the consumer. We should also allow market forces in the health insurance industry. Eliminate state monopolies and allow for interstate competition. I also feel we need to eliminate the need for referrals. You don't have to go back to the car dealer to get a referral to go get your oil changed do you? Why do you need a general practitioner to tell you your back hurts and you should go to a chiropractor? I feel we should repeal Obamacare and actually write a real health care bill and talk about it ahead of time. Check out the links below.
