Just the Beginning

Obamacare cometh.  And I fear this is just the beginning.

Recently, a hospital in Pennsylvania decided to discontinue their obstetric care.  As of March 31st, Windber Medical Center will no longer be in the business of delivering babies.  Apparently, the behemoth that is the "Affordable Care Act" has made it nearly impossible for this small-town, local hospital to recoup costs associated with labor and delivery services.

Our government is effectively tying the hands of our medical care system.  Rather than giving people better health care and more options, the opposite is happening.  Of course, this is the only outcome we could have expected.  Rationed care is never good care.

Our health care system was broken, but now it is destroyed.  This is just the beginning.
