Obama's administration wants government to take over healthcare and redistribute healthcare to everyone in an even system. As good as this sounds on paper, the way this is paid for is on the backs of American workers. It isn't simply an issue of higher taxes but added cost. Since this new system won't maintain the same level of care that is in the US now, responsible tax payers with jobs will have to have private healthcare and public heatlhcare to maintain their level of service. That means additional cost and more strain on the economy. What we really need is more market control of healthcare and great competition so that prices come down as an outcome of invisible hand. Taking over healthcare will only make it work as well as the roads, it may work somewhat but it will be a bumpy ride.
