ObamaCare Architect: Being Healthy Discriminates Against the Unhealthy November 14, 2013 By Daniel Greenfield
In the not too distant past, this would have been satire.
ObamaCare Architect: Being Healthy Discriminates Against the Unhealthy November 14, 2013 Daniel Greenfield
Forget White Privilege. Try some Health Privilege for a change.
In a strange bygone era, you went to a doctor when you got sick, then you paid the doctor. But this unfairly allowed more healthy people to spend less money on doctors than less healthy people.
And what right did healthy people who were part of some sort of healthy genetic master race have to spend less money on health care?
They didn’t. So Obama fixed that. Punishing the healthy for their health and creating a new fairer society where everyone pays more for health care, but they all pay the same amount.
Jonathan Gruber, Director of the Health Care Program at the National Bureau of Economic Research named “One of the Top 3 Most Innovative and Practical Thinkers of Our Time” by Slate Magazine. And a guy who took around $300k from the government while promoting ObamaCare. . . . . Socialism? Nah, no Socialism to see here.
You would have to be some kind of crazy Sarah Palin person to think that setting up nationalized health care to combat Health Privilege in which you pay more for health care that you don’t need is a Socialist idea."
