“By front-loading the benefits, and by back-loading the costs, the politicians have extended the welfare state to encompass virtually every area of life. ObamaCare is the exception. ObamaCare is front-loading the costs, and it is back-loading the benefits. This is not insurance; this is a welfare state program, pure and simple. But it is being covered by the illusion that it is, in fact, an insurance program. People who have pre-existing conditions that exclude them from getting insurance in the free market are rushing to sign up for the welfare program. People who are generally healthy, meaning younger people, are not rushing to sign up. They don’t want the program. They have been outvoted.”
