“Americans can thank the former Republican presidents listed above for the unconstitutional healthcare contraption that passed the House and that will complete the transformation of the United States into a European-style social-welfare state, but without any of the market efficiencies that several European nations have designed into their national healthcare systems. All of these presidents ignored the fatal flaws with the existing healthcare system and handed the issue to the Democrats. The irony is that Democrats had created the fatal flaws and would have been easy targets in a Republican-led reform effort.” (11/08/09)
