This is just one example of Obama's agenda. He wants to change America to Socialism and Communism, eliminating capitalism. I heard him say that when he spoke in Kansas but the media ignored it. He is a super salesman and liar. He reminds me of a seminar speaker selling products and promising everything if they bought. When asked if it really worked he said "no, but as long as they keep buying it, I'm going to keep selling it."

Another good article by Chuck, and very true. I too was a young boy during that time. In my opinion, we are no longer the country of opportunity. We now are the country of entitlements. It's very sad to me.

I'm sick and tired of the continuing blaming Bush for everything. Did he keep us safe after 9/11? It was never about him personally.. What he did he thought was best for the country. Obama does only what he thinks is best for him and the country be dammed. We'll never know about Ben Ghazi. It will always be "it's not important or what difference does it make?" Get ready for communism and socialism as it's coming.
I have a daughter who teaches "reading" at a 2 year college. This course is for kids who can't read at the high school level, even though they graduated. They need to read at a certain level to get into a 4 year college. Most high school graduates, in her class, read at the 5th grade level. This year her school has over 800 students taking the class. And, education is getting better? I don't think so.

The Pandora Box of Obamacare

I'm a disabled veteran so automatically rely on government healthcare plus am pre-existing when it comes to treatment. Do I still get the same treatments I once got? NO! My Doctor no longer can prescribe what he feels I need. That is decided by one man or panel in Washington. That person or panel can decide aspirin is sufficient treatment instead of a prescription. Because of my age, I cannot depend on getting a operation if needed. That too is decided by a "non Doctor or panel" as well. Cancer treatment is cut off at age 76 regardless. So far, I've been lucky.

Excellent, and very true Stossel. I was bed ridden, needed help getting up, couldn't stand for more than 2 seconds and in constant pain. i asked my wife to take me to a pain clinic. The Doctor looked at my MRI and said he was going to treat the problem. He gave me my first of 3 shots and within a few days I was able to get around with a walker. He wouldn't tell me what the shot was, just that it would help. I later found out it was a steroid shot. I'm still getting them whenever needed. Yet, it's illegal for athletes. I'd still be confined to bed without these shots.. .
Pay close attention to this. I am a disabled veteran and receive VA benefits. Obamacare kicked in on me when it originally passed. My meds and treatments are no longer dictated to me by my Doctor. The government tells my Doctor what he or she must prescribe, even if different than what I was originally getting. I waited for 4 months to get cataract surgery and 6 months to get a epidural pain shot. I was bed ridden, couldn't even stand and in constant pain. I went to ER and was told I needed to wait my turn. Fortunately, I kept my private insurance as well. Obamacare has yet to apply there so I called my private pain clinic Doctor and got my pain shot the next morning. In fact, I got 2 shots before my VA pain appointment.

Excellent article. Are you aware that, under OBAMACARE, your Doctor no longer can prescribe for you. He's told by the government what to prescribe. All Doctors are paid the same, regardless of specialty, and their pay is less than what your congressman gets paid. If you're approved for treatment, you wait your turn. I waited 4 months for cataract surgery and 6 months for a pain shot. Going to ER doesn't speed it up either.
My daughter home schooled all 4 of her children. Thy have since graduated college and are productive in our society. i don't like what schools now teach our kids and home schooling is a excellent alternative. The quarterback at Kansas State and a contender for the Heisman award was home schooled.

It's no big secret that Obama wants to get rid of capitalism and change us to socialism. A former Union boss said they want to get rid of capitalism and change us to communism. The press, media and the democratic party wants to change us to socialism as noted by a survey this past week. I didn't like it many years ago and am not looking forward to it now. The voters voted for it though so maybe it will happen.
