You know things are bad for President Obama when even Warren Buffett has soured on Obamacare and says that "we need something else." Money Morning writes: Buffett and Obama
"Healthcare costs in the United States are like a tapeworm eating at our economic body.
"Those words come from famed investor Warren Buffett, who said he would scrap Obamacare and start all over.
"'We have a health system that, in terms of costs, is really out of control,' he added. 'And if you take this line and you project what has been happening into the future, we will get less and less competitive. So we need something else.'
"Buffett insists that without changes to Obamacare average citizens will suffer.
"'What we have now is untenable over time,' said Buffett, an early supporter of President Obama. 'That kind of a cost compared to the rest of the world is really like a tapeworm eating, you know, at our economic body.'

Okay, finally a glimmer of hope that we may yet be saved from the train wreck otherwise known as Zero-care.
And the hope comes . . . not because of John Boehner
. . . not because of Mitch McConnell
. . . not because of Eric Cantor
. . . not because of ANY opposition from the inept and ridiculous opposition party.
No. Instead, the hope comes because now even the chief member of the ruling elite sees it for the catastrophe that it is.
Oh well, any port in the storm, as they say.
But I suspect - if the rest of the regime follows its marching orders and now rescinds Zero-care - that we'll still have to be doubly on guard to whatever Buffet and his pals have cooked up for us serfs.
Because whatever it is, and whatever form it takes, count on one thing: It will erode freedom and liberty even more.

Well, whatever it is, you can bet it won't be the "cafeteria" plan
And let me know if you find the "t" I lost.

It's simple. Buffett was for it when he thought his insurance company would make mega-billions in profits from it,and now he has discovered he will lose money so he is against it.
