Rep. Chuck Fleischmann, the fine new congressman from Chattanooga and our 3rd Congressional District, has offered good sense in warning against the staggering threat of socialized medicine and higher taxes under ObamaCare, which Democrats approved last year with no Republican support.
Fleischmann is an able conservative. Health care is a hot topic. So he realistically waded right in.
It is estimated, he said in a release, “that if ObamaCare were fully implemented, its total cost would be $2.6 trillion,” and it would add $701 billion to our national debt.
Are you ready for that?
We all ought to stop right now and let that sink in: ObamaCare could wind up costing $2.6 trillion and adding $701 billion to the nation’s debt.
