"Government health care is better--which is why we're forcing you to sign up!"
Barry and his Democrat henchmen *imply* that government-run medicine is great. After all, if the government's system wasn't better, why would they have to *force* everyone into it, eh?
But consider an argument made by leftists/Democrats themselves: If there were two tracks--private and government-run (i.e. socialized medicine)--poor people would all be in the latter system. At that point leftists would be howling that it simply wasn't FAIR that wealthy people got "gold-plated" medical care while the poor were "thrown into the government system." The Left's solution would be to end the "unfairness" by abolishing the private system used by self-supporting Americans.
But if government-run health care (a.k.a. socialized medicine) really *was* better, how could the Left complain that the two-track system was unfair?
Obviously a government system is only "better" than a private system for those who can't afford insurance. For the rest of us it's worse--which is why you're being forced into it at the point of a gun.
And yes, I know that's a metaphor: Government agents won't actually use a gun when they come to haul your ass off to jail for not paying your health tax.
