Family Security Matters » Publications » Exclusive: There Has Been Real Health Reform – And ObamaCare Threatens It: "At a press conference on March 5, 2009 President Obama, who loves to invoke past successful presidencies stated: “Teddy Roosevelt first called for health care reform nearly a century ago.”
He was partially right. He of the soft walk and the big stick did, in fact, run on a platform with a provision for national health care, but he of the smooth talk and olive branch forgot to mention that the chief concerns of that provision were public health issues such as malaria, smallpox, diphtheria and highly communicable diseases which killed so many that the life expectancy was 51.
And, by the way, the recently scuttled Obama plan did not even mention enhanced public health administration, the danger of germ warfare, the development of vaccines for pandemics, strategic storage of antibiotics and anti-toxins, and crisis and national emergency treatment centers."
