Obamacare and the blindly assumed relationship that doesn't really exist: Health Insurance = Health Care


Supporters of Obamacare proudly tell us that an estimated 30-50 million more people will be insured as of January 1, 2014; yet, according to all available data, there is no corresponding increase in the number of doctors, hospitals, or other medical care providers of any kind on the horizon. So, the obvious question is: who will treat these millions of newly insured Americans, who, by design, will be comprised of ill, poverty stricken, and previously not insurable people? Thus is exposed the most overlooked and incontrovertible issue in this entire 'Affordable' Care Act quagmire: a government mandated document proving you have medical 'insurance' does not guarantee, or even imply, that you will ever receive better medical 'care.' When the smoke finally clears and we examine the ashes, we will be able to deduce this: the Obama administration will have succeeded in establishing the most gloriously noble and gloriously expensive and gloriously pointless swampland of government bureaucracy in the last several decades.
