ObamaCare Hits the Supreme Court

Image Credit


The US spends far more and receives less favorable results from spending almost double what other industrialized countries spend in health care.  The US pays the highest share of GDP in healthcare costs 16% and also has the highest growth rate in spending of any other nation.  One US policy change that has a chance to change this disturbing trend is ObamaCare.  Republicans don't have any solutions other than to end ObamaCare and go back to health insurance companies refusing claims for pre-existing conditions.  Every Republican presidential candidate has promised to repeal health reform on Day One. That's what they're running on. Everyone, except Healthcare Insurance CEO's, benefits from ObamaCare.   Check out this interactive and find out what ObamaCare does for you.

Who is paying for Huckabee's Repeal it now, Pitch?

Almost every day now for the past few months I've been seeing Huckabee on TV promoting his repeal of "Obamacare".  The website repealhealthcareactnow.org claims that they advertise on MSNBC, CNN, C-span,
 Fox, of course and Bloomberg.  Whose paying for all those ad buys?  They must have spent millions of dollars so health insurance providers can deny coverage to individuals due to pre-existing conditions.  Having 24 year old's getting health care on their parents policy is just too much?  Frankly, I'm sick of seeing Huckabee's smiling face shilling for the big insurance companies.
Update 6/9/11
Huckabee in 2004                     Image via Wikipedia Apperently, Hucks campaign "back room deals in the dead of night" and "forced on the American people, despite their kicking and screaming that they didn't want it." is not going well and a note of desperation has crept into their ads.  Now he's encouraging people to sign more than once.  "Sign even if you have already, signed the petition or called in".  If the healthcare insurance industry is running all these ads, we're all going to pay for them will higher insurance costs.  The cost of these ads certainly isn't coming out of healthcare CEO's bonuses.  We need single payer for all.  Give it up Huckabee!  Baptist preacher turns shill for insurance industry.
