Now Obama is importing big government advocates from Europe to help him push Obamacare on Americans.
Obama is importing Germany’s former health minister, Daniel Bahr, to help push the President’s failed Affordable Care Act, or Obamacare. He is also joining the extremist, left-wing think tank, the Center for American Progress (CAP).
Bahr lost his government job in Germany last September when his party couldn’t muster enough votes to stay in power. He was quoted as telling his fellow Germans that he’d “find something” to do.
Apparently pushing big government boondoggles on Americans was the “something.”
“It’s unbelievably exciting to follow the American discussion on President Obama’s health reforms. Although as a free-market liberalist, I had to chuckle when I was labeled a ‘socialist’ in a discussion, because I asserted that every citizen should have health insurance,” Bahr said to the German media.
No matter what Bahr thinks he is, his ideas are socialist in the American scheme of things. Anyone that pushes big government at the expense of freedom and personal liberty is little else but a socialist as far as our system is concerned.
It is no surprise that Obama is importing a failed German bureaucrat to push socialist, anti-American policies on us.
Finally, anyone who would join the Center for American Progress is no free marketer.
