Marathon Pundit: ObamaCare: Majority of workers will be forced to change health plans

PRESIDENT OBAMA: "Let me also say that -- let me also address a illegitimate concern that's being put forward by those who are claiming that a public option is somehow a Trojan horse for a single-payer system." Barack Obama, address to the AMA, Chicago, June 15, 2009.

Simply put, Obama lied. ObamaCare is a Trojan horse that will push millions of workers onto a government-run health care plan. Unless ObamaCare is repealed and replaced, we are headed to a single-payer plan--like Britain's dysfunctional National Health Service. I'll report on the latest NHS atrocity in my next post.

From the Senate Republican Communications Center:

MAJORITY OF WORKERS “WILL BE FORCED” TO CHANGE HEALTH PLANS

The Centerpiece Of The Obama Health Care Sales Job Is Proven False After Months Of Promises That "If You Like Your Plan, You Can Keep Your Plan"

RHETORIC: "Nobody Is Talking About You Forcing To Have To Change Your Plans"

PRESIDENT OBAMA: "If You Like Your Plan, You Can
Keep Your Plan." (President Obama, Remarks On Health Care, 3/3/10)

PRESIDENT OBAMA: "I Have Been As Clear As I Can Be. Under The Reform I've Proposed, If You Like Your Doctor, You Keep Your Doctor. If You Like Your Health Care Plan, You Keep Your Health Care Plan. These Folks Need To Stop Scaring Everybody. You Know?…Nobody -- Nobody Is Talking About You Forcing To Have To Change Your Plans.… And If You've Got Health Insurance, We're Not Going To Ask You To Change It." (President Obama, Town Hall Meeting, Raleigh, NC,7/29/09)

REALITY: "Majority Of Workers … Will Be Forced To Make Changes To Their Health Plans Under The New Law"

AP: “Over And Over In The Health Care Debate, President Barack Obama Said People Who Like Their Current Coverage Would Be Able To Keep It. But An Early Draft Of An Administration Regulation Estimates That Many Employers Will Be Forced To Make Changes To Their Health Plans Under The New Law. In Just Three Years, A Majority Of Workers—51 Percent—Will Be In Plans Subject To New Federal Requirements, According To The Draft.” (“Health Overhaul To Force Changes In Employer Plans,” AP, 6/11/10)
