Our nation is headed to a disastrous end all because we have a bunch of illiterate, uneducated suckers who believe Democrats when they offer free health care to all.  First, consider that every government health care system ever tried has been a disaster. Increased demand causes decreased supply and lower quality, resulting in increased demand for alternatives that will require private health insurance. The final result is massive increases in taxes paid PLUS exorbitant rates  for health insurance (which we have already).

Yesterday, Sean Hannity had a caller from London on his show.  Sean asked him how the government health care is over there in England.  The caller then briefly recounted how the hospitals are filthy and many are routinely closed because of unsanitary conditions. He said that seeing a doctor is very difficult and he’s had so much trouble getting medical care that he has had to purchase private health insurance so he can go to a private doctor.  In fact, he said about 20% of the British citizens are on private health insurance.   The rest probably can’t afford it.  Also, he said that the Health Service has recently tripled its spending in effort to improve services, but it hasn’t made a difference.  This is exactly the same problem found with Government health care in South Africa, France, and Canada: sold on “FREE” health care, the people now have to pay for the massive government system through higher taxes PLUS they STILL HAVE TO BUY INSURANCE so they can see a doctor!  That’s EXACTLY what’s going to happen here!  We will be far worse off with “free” health care than without it.
