Here is the unspoken truth about ObamaCare aka RomneyCare: It was a mutual beneficial conspiracy by the DC political elite in both parties into to force the implementation of stealth government-run health care
If you’re a single-minded cheerleader for the GOP, I am sorry to have to break the bad news to you but yes – both parties were collaborators in the health care coup. It’s quite clear now that current GOP establishment favorite Mitt Romney, from the USA Today op-ed he posted in 2009, was in on this establishment conspiracy to lie to the American public and leave us with government-run health care.
From my analysis, the plot that was agreed on behind closed doors by the Statist establishment politicians and crony capitalists was to be political theater on a grand scale for the ignorant masses. And when it was kicked off in the spring of 2009, it all seemed to be simply a matter of saying the right lines needed to fool the public.
Here is the basic script that was to be followed:

Leftists: What is the More Logical Influence?

While we have been inflicted with the vile spectacle of indecent Leftist politicians and their willing accomplishes in the media incessantly propagating their chosen fictional narrative (i.e. that the violence was the fault of the Tea Party, Sarah Palin, or at the very least “heated” political rhetoric by anyone who dared oppose them) of the tragic killings of six innocent victims in Arizona, a much more likely “influence” then politics or political ideology is being willfully ignored by the left and hastily overlooked by most on the right.
Now I am not one to buy for a second that people commit crimes due to “collective” influence from “society”, the media, or politicians. Every rational being who is sane has control of his own actions and has a choice in a free society whether or not he will act in manner that violates the rights of others (after all, that’s what crime is – a violation of your rights. Crime is using force, fraud, or theft to violate another inalienable rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness i.e. property. All just and fair laws in a free society are simply codification of the protection of these rights in specific circumstances). What matters, at the end of the day is that the individual chooses to behave in manner that violates the rights of others. Their thoughts, motivations, or influences – whatever they may be – can illuminate their state of mind but they can never serve as justification for or proof of guilt for a crime. Only cold, hard, factual evidence of an individual’s behavior matters in a legal and moral sense when convicting a person of a crime beyond a reasonable doubt.

The Legend of the “ER Freeloader”

Yes, uncompensated medical care is a problem but it’s not as big as conventional wisdom leads us to believe. “Big government” may be a villain to the conservative Republicans and the “evil insurance” company may be the object of hatred by liberal Democrats. But the “ER freeloader” is unique in that he is despised by both sides of the Obamacare debate. Liberal democrats constantly attack the “ER freeloader” without mercy and relentlessly cite uncompensated care as justification for the individual mandate. Supposedly, the individual mandate will supposedly use government force to bear to “make the irresponsible freeloaders” pay their own medical bills.
However, what is missing from this narrative is the true cost of uncompensated care. Or more importantly, what is also missing is any information on the true costs of the Obamacare solution.
As it turns out, the data need to answer what the real cost of “ER Freeloading” has been publicly available for quite a while in a document that both sides of the Obamacare debate consider to be an unbiased and accurate source of information on the cost of uncompensated care: the Kaiser Family Foundation’s 2008 study on the Uninsured in America (.PDF File).
