It seems that the President wants treatments that will not be available to you and I under his new plan. According to ABC News http://abcnews.go.com/Health/WellnessNews/president-barack-obamas-checkup-doctors-scrutiny/story?id=9982428&page=1 the president had a "virtual" colonoscopy (the Preventative Services Task Force (Death Panel), an independent body appointed by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services in 2008 concluded that there was not enough evidence to have Medicare pay for this procedure) rather than the approved Optical Colonoscopy. It seems that the ruling class will have better Health Insurance than the people. This is how it is in most countries with Government run Medical Care. To cite just a couple of examples; the Canadian Official who came to the US for a Heart procedure not available in Canada, George Clooney who was hailed for providing Medical Treatment for a young girl from England because the treatment was not available in England. It is not about providing health care for all, this could be done by changing the rules of Medicare, but it is about government control.

The issue is not even healthcare at all... it is about health insurance. We have the finest healthcare system in the world ... but 0bama and friends want to destroy that system by adopting a model similar to Medicaid and Medicare... both of which are in serious trouble. The government cannot provide healthcare, they have already proven their incompetence with those to programs. It is all about control... they couldn't care less about the people.
