Barack Obama 8 SC Did Obama Hint At Healthcare Rationing During SOTU?

Did President Obama hint at healthcare rationing during last night’s State of the Union address?

In his speech, Obama listed healthcare reform as a key in reducing long-term government debt, specifically referring to the “rising cost of health care for an aging population.”

“And those of us who care deeply about programs like Medicare must embrace the need for modest reforms.”

Obama said he will work to “reduce taxpayer subsidies to prescription drug companies and ask more from the wealthiest seniors.”

He continued: “We’ll bring down costs by changing the way our government pays for Medicare, because our medical bills shouldn’t be based on the number of tests ordered or days spent in the hospital. They should be based on the quality of care that our seniors receive.”

  1. When he speaks, I shudder. He has an agender and drops hints as he gears up. He will do it if we don’t stop him .He is only ONE person who is answerable to us, let us not forget it. United, we are far greater because we are a republic with representation. Why are people afraid of him??????I suppose those who get something for nothing can’t complain because it isn’t coming out of their pocket. We are allowing the demise of our country and the freedoms , prosperity and a pursuit of happiness it provides. The crash is fast approaching and all we can do is comment negatively about a Senator choking with a dry throat.

    If Obama was interested in reducing government debt… he’d stay off Air Force 1 and vacations a jillion times a year..as well as Michelle vacationing Colorado by herself costing Millions to taxpayers…… guess with her Secret Service man while Obama is with his Body Man… Reggie Love….
