Obama is a product of big government and has never really spent time in the real world. He believes government can solve problems when reality (and history) have shown that government creates problems.
"The stunning collapse in public opinion for President Obama's health care plan demonstrates a weakness in the president's overall vision," O'Reilly writes in his latest column.
From O'Reilly's column:
If the president's plan were clearly presented with the costs spelled out, I believe it would have a chance of passing. But just about everybody knows the USA might be facing bankruptcy, which would damage Americans far more than a troubled health care system. Even though the president will not admit it, there is huge financial risk in Obama's health care vision and Americans are starting to wise up about the danger.Read the full column at O'Reilly's Web site.
Finally, there is the freedom factor. Your health is obviously very personal. You want to have as much control as possible when you get sick. In Canada, where the government runs the health care industry, there are waiting lists for treatment in some places, a shortage of doctors in others. Americans fear that if medical choices are dictated by the feds, that kind of chaos will happen here.
