The other day Barack Obama was quoted as saying,"UPS and FedEx are doing just fine. It's the Post Office that's always having problems."
What I believe Obama was trying to say was that a government run health-care system would not hurt private medical insurance. The message that the poor man sent was just the opposite. What a stupid example! When I heard what he said all I could see was standing in long lines at the Post Office and the DMV.
Nobody wants a health-care system that works like the US Post Office.
A second point that Obama failed to make was that if the US Post Office is having such a hard time competing with private companies, why in all the world would he want to create a health-care system that will have the same disadvantage?
President Obama is not doing well right now as he struggles to promote a government run health-care system. He does not appear to know what he is talking about. First he claims that a government run agency has trouble competing with private interprise and then he claims that the governemt run agency will not need to be subsudized by the government. His teleprompters must have malfunctioned in the worst way!
This example shows that Obama simply does not understand how capitalism works. It also shows that he does not understand that all of governemt by definition is subsidized by the taxpayer.
During the election campaign there were numerous examples of the fact that Obama does not know what he is saying. Someone is writing his speeches for him and without the teleprompter Obma stutters and stammers making up stuff as silly as Joe Bidon.
