* '''Healthcare Reform''' (and the attempts to repeal it): | |||
* [[wikipedia:Universal health care]] "The Congressional Budget Office and related government agencies scored the cost of a universal health care system several times since 1991, and have uniformly predicted cost savings,[24] probably because of the 40% cost savings associated with universal preventative care[25] and elimination of insurance company overhead costs." | |||
* [[wikipedia:United States National Health Care Act]] (establishing that Americans want universal single-payer) | |||
** "Between 2003 to 2009, 17 opinion polls showed that the majority of Americans supported a single-payer system.[23] These polls are from sources such as CNN,[24] AP-Yahoo,[25][26] Quinnipiac,[27] New York Times/CBS News Poll,[28][29] Washington Post/ABC News Poll,[30] Kaiser Family Foundation[31] and the Civil Society Institute.[32] .. In October 2003, a Washington Post poll found that 62% supported "a universal health insurance program, in which everyone is covered under a program like Medicare that's run by the government and financed by taxpayers."[23] A poll of practicing physicians in Massachusetts published by the American Medical Association (AMA) found that 55.7% of AMA members and 66.8% of non-members preferred "single payer" as a basis for reform over the other alternatives offered of "managed care" and "fee for service". Overall support for single payer was 63.5% compared to 25.8% for fee for service and 10.7% for managed care" | |||
* '''2011-01-10''' [http://acandidworld.com/2011/01/10/obamacare-already-working/ "ObamaCare" Already Working] "Private market insurance companies are experiencing significant growth because of a tax break provided by the PPACA. I may have missed the day this was discussed in economics class, but Im pretty sure this is not a socialistic result of federal legislation." - from ''Forbes'' magazine | |||
* '''2011-01-07''' [http://acandidworld.com/2011/01/07/well-that-didnt-take-long-nro-spins-gops-deficit-increase-plan/ Well, That Didnt Take Long: NRO Spins GOPs Deficit Increase Plan] "Daniel Foster for the National Review Online spins the news that the Obamacare repeal would cost in excess of $200 billion" as "decreasing the size of government by $200b". When the deficit is from overspending, that's bad (unless it's something they like, e.g. war); when the deficit is from reduced revenues from deleting a program they don't like, that's good. Oh, and "reducing the size of government" can now mean both reducing spending (e.g. de-funding government programs/agencies such as the OTA) ''and'' reducing revenues. | |||
