Kathleen Parker’s Aug. 9 column, “Romney’s words abroad show contrast with Obama,” stating, “Obamacare forces people of faith” in health care, is a big lie, plain and simple. Insurance companies pay for the care the patient gets.
It’s the patient’s choice what care they receive. Lying about government, turning it inward against its own people is a disgrace.
Remember Ronald Reagan’s comment that government is the problem? Actually our government does much for us, including its detractors. Health care is a major example and only government could do it equally, fairly, without the giant costs of the for-profit system we have now.
Parker and her Stone Age religious lies belong exactly there, in the Stone Age. Religious dogma is not health care. Currently, “profit” chooses who gets health care, not religion, not the patient.
