As much as I held high hopes for legitimate healthcare reform in this country (namely, reforming subsidies, so individuals, not their employers, get the tax breaks for acquiring the healthcare of their choice; and creating a much freer, and more equitable market place that eliminates monopolies and cartels, as well as bureaucratic drag, and the special interests of organized medicine), its rather depressing to see the only--albeit admittedly bad--efforts to reform the system torpedoed not only by partisan bickering, but also by legitimate disillusion. “The rollout was so bad, and I was appalled—I don’t understand how the president could have sat there and not been checking on that on a weekly basis,” the former Democratic congressman told the website. “But frankly, he should never have said as much as he did, that if you like your current health care plan, you can keep it. That wasn’t true. And you shouldn’t lie to people. And they just lied to people,” he added. washingtontimes/news/2014/aug/2/barney-frank-obamacare-rollout-they-just-lied-peop/
