Obamacare is a Ponzi Scheme
March 10th, 2010
CALLER: I don’t call it Obamacare, I call it the Obama con job. It’s nothing but a Ponzi scheme. This is the biggest “screw you” to the middle class that is out there.
RUSH: It is. It’s almost like Madoff.
CALLER: It’s worse than Madoff. You talk about taxation being a Ponzi scheme. If they get their hands on the money, the revenue stream that will come in from every man, woman, and child in this country on a monthly basis, once they go to this single payer thing going for them, once they get their hands on that money, that revenue stream, it will never stop. We’ve got to pray to God this thing does not go through.
RUSH: That’s exactly right. We’re talking about two-and-a-half trillion dollars that they control, which is largely what this is about.
RUSH: Now, we talked yesterday, ladies and gentlemen, about the largest health insurance company (if you will) in the country is the United States government, and the single most powerful insurance company executive is Barack Obama. He runs the S-CHIP program, he runs Medicare, he runs Medicaid, and the VA. And we went through the progression yesterday: Nobody gets everything they want in those programs. Just because the governments get behind it, they don’t get everything they want, and they constantly complain, and they deny coverage. The number one insurance company that denies claims in this country is Medicare. Medicare denies far more claims than any private insurance company does.
Yet here’s Obama with all these great reforms that are just going to compound the problems that we already have in government-run insurance. I want to ask you if you would put up with this in the private sector. Essentially if Obama’s bill passes, we get the paygo. We pay now. The taxes and all the other fees and everything will happen immediately as soon as the bill is signed. But the so-called benefits don’t kick in for four years, and this is so that they could get a ten-year score from the CBO of something under a trillion dollars. Now, let me ask you a question. Can you imagine what Obama would say if, say, Blue Cross/Blue Shield was out there selling policies that you had to pay for every month for four years but you didn’t get any insurance for four years? You had to pay into it, but you couldn’t file a claim for anything no matter what happens for four years, because that’s what they’re proposing. This is Obama’s paygo. It’s a stunt. And it’s a nightmare.
If you hate your insurance company, you’ve gotta understand that the biggest and the worst is the United States government — Medicare, Medicaid, S-CHIP, VA — and Barack Obama runs it.

Anyone still in favor of this “Health Care Plan” is either a complete idiot or just plain evil. There is no other explanation at this point. Stupidity or evil.
The country will go bizerk if this passes.

Obama is redefining what “poverty” means and who “poor people” are — from absolute deprivation to RELATIVE deprivation. This means that as long as there’s economic inequality, there’ll be poor people.

The solution for this healthcare is to get rid of Obama. He is an illegal Muslim president who only wants complete CONTROL of all american taxpayer money and the citizens. How, not sure but I am really upset, all he does is smooth talk, and all the people in back of him when he gives a speech, hollar hurrah, hurrah, they are his shills and toadies. When can we ever have any peace in this country with a fool like that diseased illegal Muslim president, his cohorts in the Congress are all under his complete control and continue to play the politically incorrect game that we don’t want to complain about a black, man, young, thin, attractive, gives speeches, but must have a teleprompter, who is at the end of that Soro,Rothchilds, Bilderbergers, when Defence Sec. Gates in Afganistan, I don’t believe him, he attends the Bilderbergers conferences and who can trust them, they also want complete control of USA. I say, kick them all out, HOW? God Bless America,

I was watching cnn briefly. Justice roberts is quite passed with ‘bama state of the union. Can anybody else comment?

Roderick, look under RECENT POSTS on the right of this page and there’s a full story about it. I LOVE me some Justice Roberts! lol He’s a brave man for speaking out publicly against the “Evil One”!

Uh oh my bad…didn’t realize he was the one that swore in Obummer OR that he was given presentments. I really should do more research before I open my big mouth! Guess he’s not so brave afterall. And I don’t LOVE him so much now. Sheesh is there one honest person in the WH???

BOB..did you hear today’s show? I was listening and my husband and I both looked at each other, stunned, when Rush said that Obama is trying to overthrow the Gvmt. I mean, he’s come close to saying it before, but this is the first he’s actually said it in plain, no uncertain terms exactly what the rest of us have been feeling all along. Loved it!!! Now I wonder what’s going to happen next. You know the lamestream media is probably going to have a heyday with this. Can’t wait to hear tomorrow’s show!

Ok, I see that the Rush show you posted is today’s show. I went into the site to try to find that particular comment (that I mentioned above) and couldn’t find it. Could my husband and I have both been mistaken in what we thought we heard? lol Well, stranger things have happened. Sorry everyone, I guess I was wrong about what I thought he said. Darn!!!

Thistle, I think I also heard Rush yesterday, I think it was, say something about he feels BHO is destroying the government or something like that. That caught my attention, too.

Rush said Kenya Boy is destroying the country and the American people are finally awake and “aren’t buying it” anymore. The part I thought was most interesting was Rush saying that if Kenya Boy doesn’t get his way with the health care bill, it will get very very ugly, and people will really see his true self. Th polls will drop even further and the “likeable guy” image will evaporate. I quite agree, and I have thought for about a month now that Kenya Boy is really starting to disintegrate. I trust my instincts. He has that crazed angry dictator look.
I don’t think we can wait until November! If the bill passes, it’s war. We need to go to DC and stay there in the streets when Congress is in session. No one will be able to go anywhere. We need the Oathkeepers.

I feel like we’ve waited too long as it is.

Thanks Regina and Live Oak, I’m glad to know my hubby and I aren’t totally squirrely.
Destroying the gov. and Overthrowing the gov. means the same thing to me. It’s all bad. Truthfully, I think the approval numbers are way lower than what any of the polls are saying. I think even the poll takers are afraid to tell the truth for fear they will be attacked or threatened for daring to point out how unpopular this usurper really is. Just a feeling I have.

I’m so discouraged that NOBODY will do anything to take this ILLEGAL IDIOT out of the White House! Not one person in power has the guts to do anything about him and his d*mn healthcare crap or all the other ILLEGAL bills he’s passing!
I surely wish the Guardians Of the Free Republic would give us an update as to what’s going on on their end. They haven’t made another radio broadcast since the end of January. If anyone has any news or updates from them please share!

I said somehing to my son today about getting him out and he said one word HOW? That is my problem, unless Orly comes up with something that can get by these illegal activist judges, I don’t see any way. God Bless All Who Are Trying.

I know Goldie, it’s very disheartening. Unless someone takes drastic measures, I guess we’re stuck with his ILLEGAL butt until 2012. I’m so not happy about that. Dr. Manning has high hopes that his trial will make a difference, but I’m not quite that positive about it. I mean WHO will have the nerve to actually arrest him?? I predict NO ONE.
