Here’s a bit from my article today over at the American Issues Project:
The national debt is already $11.7 trillion. Obama’s budget deficit, according to the administration, is already $1.5 trillion. The health care overhaul would add another trillion to it. Because of the massive debt and the deficit, the Federal Reserve is having a hard time unloading the debt. Actually, they can’t unload the debt, so they are printing money to buy it. And rather than looking for ways to lower the debt, the administration is looking to raise the debt limit.
It may be borderline conspiracy theory, but one has to wonder if the goal here isn’t reforming health care but reforming America. Obama is already on record as advocating the redistribution of wealth, which was the ultimate goal of Cloward and Piven. How can increasing the national debt limit, $1.5 trillion dollar budget deficits, and another $9 trillion in debt do anything but strain the very foundation of our economic system?
