While some people might see the "yes" vote, and say, "What are you thinkin'?" the question only asks if it will be effective. Now, if it said, "Will it be effective in administering health care and lowering costs?," not only would I have said no, but I would have said "Hell, no!"

Ways in which the President Impostor-In-Chief B. Hussein Obama's plan will be effective:

1. It will limit choices of services offered by doctors. In a health care field that prides itself on the best care and the most varied methods of care in the world, President Impostor-In-Chief B. Hussein Obama wants to limit that power of people to seek what medical care they wish to only what the government can afford. This process is called rationing-by-bureaucracy, and in similar fashions and in other countries it has been tried, (i.e. Canada, Great Britain), it has failed. In Great Britain, there is a ten-and-one-half month waiting list for pre-natal care. Too bad a pregnancy lasts only nine months and a week. Also in Great Britain, breast cancer patients are being turned away on account that the government has arbitrarily discontinued carrying the medicine used to treat breast cancer. In Canada, which is the example most liberals cite as being most effective, sure, the heart surgery is free if you can wait the five years from diagnosis to get it. In this way, President Impostor-In-Chief B. Hussein Obama's plan - fashioned much like the socialised health care of Great Britain and Canada, will ultimately kill off some more people.

2. It will diminish the availability of doctors. Who would want to be a doctor if everything you're willing to do to help a patient is forbidden or 'unsanctioned' by the government bureaucracy which decides what type of care can be administered? When you go to work, do you like being told what to do, how to do it, and how much or how little you can do it, and that if you don't do it in a prescribed way, you could be blacklisted from providing care? Plus, with medical malpractice insurance premiums likely to go up, the idea of a 'profiting' doctor's practice is likely to go by the wayside and into the dustbin.

3. It will destroy what is left of the shambles of the American economy. As more and more people struggle for work, the availability of jobs that would require that employers fully cover their employees increases costs, while the government continues to take higher and higher percentages from the employers simply at President Impostor-In-Chief B.
