Clinton Attack on Obama Overlooks Some Realities
"The experience in Massachusetts, which has enacted universal coverage with a mandate that everyone obtain health insurance, shows how difficult it is to force everyone to comply. About 20 percent of people in that state do not have health insurance even with the mandate. The average cost of a policy is $12,000 a year for a family and $5,000 for an individual. It is likely to take years before costs come down enough so that lower-income people can afford health insurance and are willing to pay for it.
Austan Goolsbee, an economics professor at the University of Chicago and senior economic adviser to the Obama campaign, said the Clinton campaign should acknowledge that its plan would leave out at least as many as Mr. Obama’s — partly because Mrs. Clinton has not said how she would enforce her mandate.
“She has not suggested a penalty,” Mr. Goolsbee said. “If there’s not a major penalty for skipping out on insurance, people will skip out on it.”
Taxes, penalties, fees... no matter what the globalist crowd wants to do, you and I take it in the ass!
I guess Ms. Hitlery hasn't seen SICKO!
We shouldn't have to pay a cent!
