Could any single issue more blatantly expose President Obama's raw and unabashed promotion of his political philosophy than his proposal to force private health insurers to pay the cost of veteran's service-related health care needs? Politically, here's what this proposal accomplishes:
1. By pushing an unfunded cost onto private insurance, he ensures that the cost of private health insurance will increase exacerbating the existing affordability issues that have already been created by government interference in health care. Make no mistake, it is the President's objective to destroy private health insurance and leave nationalized health care as the only alternative. If Congress should pass this into law, he and the Democrats will be one step closer to accomplishing their goals.
2. This proposal clearly communicates to the world the contempt that the President holds for the U.S. military. This leaves no doubt that anyone volunteering to serve in the U.S. military will be serving a President who holds their service in contempt and from whom they can never expect to receive any acknowledgement of respect. Why else would he want to deny the U.S. has any responsibility whatsoever for health issues arising from a veteran's service to his country? President Obama is stating that that service was not honorable and therefore not deserving of the government's care.
3. The volunteer service is a racist or, at least, a form of economic repression in the eyes of many Democrats and liberals. By holding the U.S. military in contempt, the President will discourage volunteers from joining the military. This will create a crisis in recruiting which will be used as justification for re-instituting the draft. Whatever problems there may be with a volunteer military force, does that justify forcing young adults into involuntary servitude?
There is no justification for President Obama's proposed abandonment of our veterans. President Obama does not care about reducing the deficit. The proposed $500M savings is peanuts compared to the budgetary increases he proposes elsewhere. The President has disgraced his office and the United States by making such a proposal. To shame both for so shallow political purposes makes any honorable person want to vomit.
