In the end it appears he will get his surgery and not even have to have a garage sale to pay for it. Thats the power of the press I suppose but he does in fact have nobody to blame but himself. As was pointed out he was thrown a life saver, which he refused.
its interesting to see the all or nothing approach here to the whole obamacare thing.
the healthcare system was in a bad situation and Universal care was never going to fly so they had to take what they could get and there is no doubt that insurance and big pharma (and others) took advantage of the situation particularly since the primary authors of the thing were the insurance companies
In the end i think if you FF 50 years and look back Obama will be seen much the way that Tommy Douglas is in Canada today (Greatest Canadian of all time, he beat out Gretztky and Alexander Graham Bell) and I bet if you arent Canadian you don't have a clue who he is and what he did)....look it up...learn something
Bottom line if healthcare is a right someone has to pay for it, obamacare simply is the first step in addressing this problem it will undergo changes and I would bet in 50 years the people looking back will have Universal Healthcare.
Whether I agree with Obamacare is irrelevant I am simply pointing out whats happening and will happen as I see it.
