#63 Quincy: “Their employers or the government pay the insurer to pay the doctor. Under ObamaCare, employers or the government pay the insurer to pay the doctor…”

Wrongo. It isn’t the government paying anyone anything and it isn’t the employer paying anyone anything. It is YOU and ME and every working stiff who pays for EVERYTHING in this country – either through taxes or reduced wages to compensate for the contribution of the employer.

WE pay for everything.

“The government doesn’t have any money. Only people have money. The government gets money by reaching its hand into your pocket and taking it out.” – Milton Friedman

The sooner people start understanding this simple concept, the sooner we can trim back the egregious waste in government and the sooner we can trim this Godzilla back to its proper size and scope.
