Obama’s Real Legacy

    President Obama’s legacy will be no worse off for broken promises than any of his white peers’. The affordable care racket was the only option on the table for the President, as well as the voters. “You see,” Doctor Z, “there’s an implicit pact offered to any minister by his senior officials. If he will help them to implement the opposite of the policies he’s pledged to — which once he’s in office he will see are obviously incorrect — then they will help him to pretend to do what he promised in his manifesto.”

    — Mr. Humphries, “Yes, Minister”

    “Our enemies are Medes and Persians, men who for centuries have lived soft and luxurious lives; we of Macedon for generations past have been trained in the hard school of danger and war. Above all, we are free men, and they are slaves.”
    — Arrian of Nicomedia, 92 – 175 AD

      Beware of Greeks bearing philosophies or histories, especially if you are an attractive boy.

    “After previous administrations failed to privatize health care in the US, Obama succeeded with the Affordable Care Act—aka ‘Obamacare’. At a cost of nearly $1 trillion a year, covering less than 15 million of the former 50 million uninsured, Obamacare redistributed income to provide subsidies to those covered. In exchange the subsidized who bought Obamacare policies got super-high deductible, low coverage, health insurance. Health insurance companies in turn got tens of millions new customers guaranteed and paid for by taxpayers, and then continued to game the system for more profits.  Obamacare became less a health care system reform act than a health insurance company subsidy act.  It was the logical consequence of Obama’s withdrawal of the ‘public option’ and Democrats’ refusal to even allow debate on extending Medicare for all. …”

    “Neither Obama nor his party are spineless betrayers—they’re partisans of capital who sometimes have to pretend otherwise for electoral reasons. But that won’t stop loyalists from scratching their heads and wondering why the Dems are the way they are—only to stop and reassure you that the Republicans are much worse”

    The U. S. spends 15% of its GDP on health services while countries like France and Germany spend around 8% of GDP and cover everyone with excellent health care. The most successful plans built off an existing system. To have a successful single payment plan we should have built off of Social security.

    I see a lot of criticism of Obamacare in the AVA but I never see any suggestions for a single payment plan that will cover everyone. Obama at least tried which was more than any President since Nixon’s plan was sunk by Teddy Kennedy.

      Medicare for everyone, Jim.
