Eileen McGann Biography
- Title:
- Attorney and Former Public Interest Lobbyist
- Position:
- Con to the question "Is the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (Obamacare) Good for America?"
- Reasoning:
-
“President Obama’s rhetoric last night [in his televised July 22, 2009 press conference] summoned the memory of ‘1984,’ George Orwell’s novel of a nightmarish future — where the slogan of the rulers is ‘War is peace; freedom is slavery; ignorance is strength.’
The president assures us that he will cut health-care spending . . . by adding $1 trillion to health-care spending.
…Obama’s health program will promote ‘lower cost and more choice’ by increasing spending by $1 trillion, telling patients what care they’re permitted to have, and limiting their access to quality care.
Orwell’s heirs should sue for violation of copyright.”
