CNBC's Quick Rips ObamaCare: 'At Some Point You Need to Take Responsibility for Yourself' | NewsBusters.org: "Is President Barack Obama really instituting 'cradle-to-grave' social policies and transforming the United States into a nanny state? Well, it may not be 'womb-to-tomb' yet, but he's certainly creating a welfare state for Americans beyond their mid-20s.

On CNBC's April 12 'Squawk Box,' the network's Washington correspondent John Harwood was outlining what he perceived to be the more positive aspects of ObamaCare, specifically extending how long a one can remain on their parents' insurance policy and whether or not someone can be disqualified for pre-existing conditions.

'I think it's more likely to be stuck,' Harwood said. 'Now, ultimately, the hope for Democrats, and for the president, is the actual experience with the legislation. Forget the sales job, but once elements of that kick in, especially the more popular ones, letting kids stay on their parents' insurance policies until they're 26, and preventing insurance companies from kicking people off when they hit a lifetime max - those kinds of things, they hope, will make, fuel acceptance of this legislation.'"
