THE OBAMACARE DISASTER…
AND A BETTER WAY FORWARD
Obamacare has set in motion a government takeover of American health care. Among other things,

- What kind of care is “effective” and therefore should be paid for by insurance

The end result will be a government-run health system that erodes the quality of medical care and forces patients
to wait for services because of low and inadequate reimbursement rates for doctors and hospitals. In the meantime, Obamacare’s spending and taxes will destroy jobs and pile massive new debts onto the shoulders of future
