Citizens Against Government Waste:: "President Obama has repeatedly vowed that 'if you like your health plan, you can keep it,” but the government health insurance option that President Obama, Democratic leaders, and their pro-socialized medicine backers insist on would gradually undermine private insurance by undercutting its costs. A study by The Lewin Group, a respected economics consulting firm, estimates that 83.4 million Americans would lose the private coverage they have today if the healthcare plan under consideration in the House becomes law."
And if you’re still not convinced that the real goal of the Obama/Pelosi/Reid legislation is to force all Americans into a one-size-fits-all, government-run and rationed healthcare system, look no further than page 16 of the House bill. Under "Limitation On New Enrollment," the bill 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.
In other words, once the Obama/Pelosi/Reid healthcare regime takes effect, you can keep your existing plan, but if your employer stops offering healthcare coverage or if you are privately insured and your insurer cancels your coverage, you are no longer free to buy new coverage from a private insurance company on the open market.
As Investor’s Business Daily editorialized on July 15, “…the bill itself will kill the market for private individual coverage by not letting any new policies be written after the public option becomes law.”
