YouTube - SHOCK UNCOVERED: Obama IN HIS OWN WORDS saying His Health Care Plan will ELIMINATE private insurance

He clearly states that the goal is to create a public option that will eliminate the private option in 10,15,20 years..

Taken in full context, what he said, in fact, is that he supports universal coverage based on the current employer-based system and that MAYBE in 15-20 years, a single payer option might be viable.

Nothing in the current House bill resembles a "socialist" type single payer system.....the Senate is likely to not even include a public option.

Scare tactics.
