Dems confess hopes to eliminate private healthcare
Carolyn Hileman - The Voice | August 4, 2009
Yet another liberal lawmaker on Capitol Hill has acknowledged that the public option healthcare proposal being promoted by President Obama and Democrats on Capitol Hill is a “Trojan horse” for a single-payer socialized healthcare system.
Earlier this summer, House Financial Services Committee Chairman Barney Frank (D-Massachusetts) told CNSNews.com that he agrees with President Obama that a single-payer healthcare system has worked well in some countries. Congressman Frank reportedly cited Scandinavia as an example.
Frank was confronted at the National Press Club last week by the group Single Payer Action, which asked him why a single-payer system was off the table.
“Apparently because we don’t have the votes. I wish it weren’t. I’m all for it. I’m a big sponsor,” he admitted.
