No. He is intentionally setting about to put private health insurance companies out of business. That's right, the government is calculating a way to completely wipe out a significant American industry.
How do we know this? Why they have told us so. Not only in the words they have spoken but in language written into the voluminous bill they expect no one to read. But some have read it and here is what it does, as pointed out by Investors Business Daily:
It didn't take long to run into an "uh-oh" moment when reading the House's "health care for all Americans" bill. Right there on Page 16 is a provision making individual private medical insurance illegal.
When we first saw the paragraph Tuesday, just after the 1,018-page document was released, we thought we surely must be misreading it. So we sought help from the House Ways and Means Committee.
It turns out we were right: The provision would indeed outlaw individual private coverage. Under the Orwellian header of "Protecting The Choice To Keep Current Coverage," the "Limitation On New Enrollment" section of the bill clearly states:
"Except as provided in this paragraph, the individual health insurance issuer offering such coverage does not enroll any individual in such coverage if the first effective date of coverage is on or after the first day" of the year the legislation becomes law.
So we can all keep our coverage, just as promised — with, of course,
exceptions: Those who currently have private individual coverage won't be able
to change it. Nor will those who leave a company to work for themselves be free
to buy individual plans from private carriers.
And just in case you find this analysis too hard to understand, just watch this video. They have told us exactly what they are up to, fraud and dishonesty.





Sorry, you are wrong about the Obama healthcare proposal. It's an outright lie to suggest that the President is outlawing private health insurance companies. Why don't you do your homework and review the proposal. I work in healthcare. Instead of listening to politicians, the insurance industry and other key players in this debate why don't you ask those of us who acutally work in healthcare how we feel. Choice? You don't have choice now. I see insurance companies decide patient care on a daily basis despite what the staff and our physicians think is best for the patient. If you think you can continue to pay for the excessive cost of healthcare then I suggest you support no change to the current system. The result will be limited access to only those who can afford it. If you don't think this issue is already affecting middle class Americans you must be one of the few indiviudals on a state pension with state healthcare benefits who pay little of out of pocket expenses. We must have systemic healthcare reform in this country and soon because the current system is not sustainable. Stop scaring people with yoru rhetoric and start doing your homework by reviewing all the proposals.

Ultimately, this is about governmnent control. The government wants to control healthcare, like it does the car industry and the banks. Unfortunately, tax payers will suffer, as well as the quality of our healthcare services.
