Today I posted a chart of the supposed Obama health plan to Twitter.
Someone called it a "big fat lie." That would actually be a relief! This claim has not been further substantiated, so I thought I'd go a-truth-seekin' all by myself and came across this simplified, easy-to-digest chart. Is this what the Democrats would prefer people see? I have no idea, because there is very little about the so-called "public option" to be found.
Now, the first chart is big, scary, and has lots of boxes, colors, and lines. The other is far more simple, and relatively monochromatic. The first chart is made by Republicans. The second chart is made by Democrats. The first chart explains the supposed Universal Health Care (UHC) plans from the government point of view (how it will be run) and the second chart explains UHC from the consumer's point of view (how it may benefit them.)
I'm curious to hear how one chart is right and the other wrong since: a.) They are describing two distinctly different things. b.) Neither one can be substantiated by any kind of definitive plan released from the administration.
As I have been pointing out repeatedly, there is no UHC plan! No one has seen a UHC plan! No one in our government has done anything but speculate about future UHC plans!
Where IS the plan? This is what people should be getting upset about on every side of the political fence! Of course, once it is released, we can all bicker like babies about it. Well, I can bicker now if anyone is interested, because I can guarantee any plan will be immoral and unconstitutional, but no one cares about those minor details. Sigh.
