Read Leonard Peikoff’s 80’s speech, “Medicine: the Death of a Profession.”. He and Ayn Rand were outspokem critics of Medicare in the 60’s. They said it would lead to socialized medicine and it slowly has. The Obama plan was a deliberate mess because the statists couldn’t push a full government takeover on Americans. They simply are waiting for people to demand an end to “evil” insurance companies so the IRS (who runs the medical system now) can takeover.

Leonard Peikoff's 80's speech...

Thank you for the heads up. Didn't know about it, so googled it, found it on the Ayn Rand institute website, and am now reading it. Funny thing, I have been saying the same thing for years, that Medicaid and medicare was the beginnning of the end. Government took over partially, and the "medical industry" got worse. So to "fix" the problem, they took it over entirely. Again, thanks for the reading suggestion. Nice to have ammo in my corner.
