New Poll Warns Daschle, Obama: Mandatory Health Insurance Big Loser with Public; Voters Want Return on Stem Cell Research

Last update: 12:12 p.m. EST Dec. 11, 2008

SANTA MONICA, Calif., Dec 11, 2008 /PRNewswire-USNewswire via COMTEX/ — Less than 15% of U.S. voters support, and 53% oppose, a proposal pushed by health insurers requiring every American to provide proof of private health insurance or face tax penalties or other fines, according to a new poll. The poll, commissioned by Consumer Watchdog, also found that by just under a two-to-one margin voters favor requiring a return on taxpayer-funded research that leads to new medical treatments or prescription drugs.

President-elect Obama opposed policies requiring all Americans to buy private health insurance coverage, the so-called "individual mandate," as a candidate. Senator Tom Daschle left open the possibility of his support for the approach in his book, "Critical," under the pretense that he is "not willing to sacrifice worthy improvements on the altar of perfection." Unlike plans pushed by health insurers, Daschle’s proposal importantly would give Americans access to a public insurance program "modeled after Medicare." Overall, 40% of voters say they are "strongly" opposed to mandating that "every American show proof that they have health insurance coverage or face tax penalties."

It’s not rocket science. I simply do not understand how so many can be so blind to reality.

So all together now Prez Elect Barry Obama PEBO’s boys and girls; come on you die-hard liberal hippies and naive left-loons…. you can do it. Sure you can, it’s not hard.

Let’s spell it out first… S O C I A L I S M. See, that was easy…now try saying it. Socialism. Keep saying it, again and again. FEEL the word, accept the word; accept that it is not a groovy, feel good, pie in the sky, kumbaya feeling of communal intercourse… it is a dangerous and destructive REALITY.

After you’ve mastered the bad ‘word‘ then you might want to LEARN a few things about it’s HISTORY. Put the two together, socialism + historical research, and enlightenment may follow. Again… it’s not rocket science and I simply do not understand how so many can be so blind to reality.
