So You Want Universal Health Care Do Ya?

Today Obama warned democrats that this was our last chance at universal health care.

Now i thought this was about a public option. An option or small program for poor people. Not an overhaul and nationalization of our health care system. But having said that there are those who want that.

So i took the time to look around at a nation that knows all too well about the horror of government run health care. I went straight to the eye witness reporters and sources in Britain. What i found didn't surprise me and has proven true a lot of accusations made about Obamacare.

This is Max Van Dyke's 'Sicko' Take a look at these headlines that are appearing all over the UK about health care:
