[FONT=Verdana]Barack Obama recently said:[/FONT] [FONT=Verdana]I think private insurers should be able to compete...I mean. If you think about it, UPS and FedEx are doing just fine. It's the Post Office that's always having problems."[/FONT] [FONT=Verdana]The President is acknowledging what we conservatives have been saying all along: That the private sector does a better job offering choices and delivering services to customers in a competitive and cost effective manner than a government-run monopoly.[/FONT] [FONT=Verdana]But Obama and liberal Democrats in Congress are pushing for a government-run health care scheme that is inefficient, limits choices and hemorrhages taxpayer money like the Post Office.[/FONT] [FONT=Verdana]Two weeks ago, the Post Office was called a "high risk" federal agency by the Government Accountability Office. The Post Office will have a $7 billion operating[I][FONT=Verdana] [/FONT][/I][B][I][FONT=Verdana]loss[/FONT][/I][/B][B][FONT=Verdana] [/FONT][/B]this year. So what makes the President, Nancy Pelosi and their left-wing allies think that government bureaucracy can run health care better than the private sector?[/FONT] [FONT=Verdana] It's clear Americans simply aren't buying into the Democrats' government-run health care experiment. They are waking up to the fact that the Democrats are trying to strip us of more of our freedoms all in the name of their "government knows best" philosophy.[/FONT] [FONT=Verdana]I don?t know about you, but I sure don?t need the government telling me whats best for me when they can?t run the Post Office and just lately they have shown they can?t even run the ?cash for clunkers? correctly. Heaven forbid they get a hold of our insurance. [/FONT]
