ObamaCare Is Not Pro-Choice -- for Anyone | Michael F. Cannon | Cato Institute: Commentary

ObamaCare Is Not Pro-Choice -- for Anyone | Michael F. Cannon | Cato Institute: Commentary: "Whatever your views on abortion, the fight over abortion in the Obama health plan illustrates perfectly why government should stay out of health care.

When the government subsidizes health care, anything you do with that money becomes the voters' business. And rather than allow for choice between different ways of doing things, the government typically imposes the preferences of the majority — or sometimes, a vocal minority — on everybody."

"The bill's subsidies would be so pervasive that prohibiting the use of taxpayer dollars for abortion coverage would restrict access to such coverage even for women who don't use the subsidies."

That shows how little freedom you will have to do anything outside of the government system!
