Franz R. Hill Massachusetts Institute of Technology Professor Jonathan Gruber was, by most accounts, one of the key figures in constructing the Affordable Care Act, better known as Obamacare. He helped designed the Massachusetts health care law on which it was modeled, assisted the White House in laying out the foundation of the law, and, according to The New York Times, was eventually sent to Capitol Hill to help Congressional staff members draft the specifics of the legislation. He provided the media with a stream of supportive quotes, and was paid almost $400,000 for his consulting work. Jonathan Gruber, in other words, knows exactly what it took to get the health care law passed. And thats why you should take him seriously when he says, in the following video, that it was critical to not be transparent about the laws costs and true effects, and to take advantage of the stupidity of the American voter in order to get it passed: youtu.be/G790p0LcgbI
