Obama: 'We're out of money'

I wish he would have realized that about $11 trillion ago.

This is a man who hasn't a clue. Yes, we are in a recession and a financial crisis. So your scare tactics that ratcheted up fear in order to get your stim bill, omnibus spending, and FY 2009 budget passed - a total of more than $5 trillion with interest added - are backfiring and you think you can work your way out of it by spending a trillion more on a health insurance boondoggle?

What planet is this guy from?

American Thinker Blog: Obama: 'We're out of money'

Fortunately, more and more Americans are realizing the Prez is clueless.

They claim Medicare is breaking them and they want to add thousands to National health care. Medicare for all. I guess that makes sense to someone .

National health care will bring the average life span of most Americans down to a more realistic age of 65. The worth of the elderly will be judged on their political, financial , and community value and health care will be rationed accordingly.

Sounds crazy?? Wait and see.

Is there anyone here using Medicare know? Forget future Healthcare, I certainly have never spoken with anyone that was pleased with their Medicare experience. Someone enlighten me on this. It just doesn't seem logical to take such a poorly run program and prop it up nationally with billions of tax dollars. It's not like medicare is Chrysler or GM, right?

Medicare and Medicaid are both broken.
but here is my problem.
If the government was not able to keep these two programs solvent, how do they plan to overcome the problems of an even bigger health care program?

To me, and I know Im just being unrealistic, but, If they are able to come up with such a stellar plan for health care, one that will include everyone, one that will work, one that will be the envy of the entire world,, no the entire universe, wouldnt it just make more sense, and be cheaper to go ahead and implement these fantastic ideas into the current broken programs and fix them?

You are exactly right. If we cannot afford Medicare, how the hell can we expect to afford healthcare for all?
