Obama Challenges GOP on Healthcare Policy
MAKE SURE YOU READ THE LAST ARTICLE IN THIS POST. HE GOT THAT DAMN RIGHT AND THIS IS WHAT THIS SCUM BAG WANTS. IT DIDNT WORK WITH CARTER IT WONT WORK WITH THIS SCUM BAG. AND THE COST WILL BE UNREAL.
GREEN BAY, Wis. -- President Barack Obama challenged Republican critics Thursday to offer alternative plans for overhauling U.S. health care, declaring he's "happy to steal people's ideas" but that doing nothing about out-of-reach costs and uninsured Americans is not an option.
"What else do we say to all those families who spend more on health care than on housing or on food?" Obama said at a town hall-style meeting, surrounded by supportive citizens in the nation's heartland. "What do we tell those businesses that are choosing between closing their doors and letting their workers go?"
Undertaking an aggressive new effort to push a major health-care measure through Congress by August, Obama rebuked critics from both the right and left _ conservatives who say his support for creating a government-sponsored insurance option alongside private coverage would send the country toward an unsustainable nationalized plan, as well as liberals who are concerned he won't go far enough to mandate universal coverage.
Obama said the question of what to do about health coverage, which has vexed Washington for decades, has reached near-emergency status.
"I know there are some who believe that reform is too expensive, but I can assure you that doing nothing will cost us far more in the coming years," Obama said. "Our deficits will be higher. Our premiums will go up. Our wages will be lower, our jobs will be fewer and our businesses will suffer."
