What Does the President’s ‘Meaningful Coverage’ Mean for Health Care?
Barack Obama has used many things, some of them supposedly personal (a mistelling of his mother’s predicament with insurance companies, a perversion of his grandmother’s experience on the streets of Hawaii…) in support of his agenda for the country.
His aw gosh, gee whiz, how unfair lap dog base eats it all up like the Useful Idiots they are.
His “ultimate agenda” is centered around his definition of fairness, which he alone defines. His mind is, fundamentally, that of a small time community organizer.
The reordering of the American system will come not from these temporary interventions, into which Obama has reluctantly waded. It will come from Obama’s real agenda: his holy trinity of health care, education and energy. Out of these will come a radical extension of the welfare state; social and economic leveling in the name of fairness; and a massive increase in the size, scope and reach of government.
