The Health Care Lie
All the time, in the news and from the President, we hear that there are 45.7 million Americans who "don't have access to health care."
This is a lie.
In reality, there are only about 10.1 million Americans who can't get health care, and even that is an over-estimate.
The new socialized health care plan will cost an estimated $1,000,000,000,000 but will only cover 97% of the American people.
Let's do some quick math:
- 10.1 million people currently aren't covered
- There are about 300 million people in the USA (legally)
- 97% coverage means 3% are not covered
- 3% of 300 million is 9 million
So, this new program (which is morally wrong and will ruin our entire health care system) will only actually provide coverage for about 1.1 million Americans, or 1/3 of 1 percent.
Why is this a big deal? It is obvious: this plan will kill private health care for everyone but the rich elite. It is not a plan to cover the folks who need care but can't afford it. It is a plan to kill private health insurance. The government wants us all on Uncle Sam's shitty coverage so they can control us, while they receive the super expensive top care.
