What Does Obama Want?
An excellent piece by Steven Den Beste at Hot Air's Green Room. One important bit:
Q: Are Democrats in the House and Senate on board with this plan?

A: Mostly they are.

Q: Why haven't they been honest about it?

A: Because they know that the majority of American voters would object. They're trying to sneak the program through, relying on the fact that once it's in place it will create its own constituency.

Q: Why haven't the Democrats passed a budget for the last two years?

A: Because if they did, the cat would be out of the bag. It would be impossible to hide their real agenda if it was all down in black-and-white.

Q: And Obamacare is part of this?

A: Yup. The real goal all along was "single payer", but that wasn't legislatively possible even in a D-majority congress. So the bill was set up so that private insurers would continue, but the terms which would be forced on them would make them "voluntarily" leave the market. With no insurers remaining, the Democrats would then "reluctantly" pass a single-payer system.
So it's basically designed to fail and set the stage for the next "crisis."
