Obama denies that the health care reforms that he is touting is socialized medicine. He also denies that his health care plan, if implemented, will result in rationed care, rising costs, and increased budget deficits.

So who’s telling the truth? Obama or his critics?

President Reagan opposed socialized medicine because it does not lead to choice. It is just another means for the government to take away your liberties and to tell you what you can and cannot do with regards to your health care needs.

Reagan’s words are as fresh today as they were then.
