What America can expect by example of Tennessee's present health care 'Disaster'!

Way back on 6/6/09 representative Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) promised that Tennessee's government-run health insurance plan TennCare would be a "disaster." She was right...it is! She warned that a federally sponsored public option would likely result in a similar outcome. State spending in Tennessee, accelerated from 2.5 billion dollars in 1995 to 8 billion in 2004 because people dropped their private insurance in favor of the "public option."

Sen. Doug Jackson discusses TennCare with WKRN.
As of Feb. 2010, TennCare is already facing 9% budget cuts!

Congressman Blackburn discusses the TennCare "gamble" on Face the Nation!
"Over a decade ago Tennessee took the gamble that near term expecdetures could be offset by long term savings.....but they never materialized in either Tenn, Mass or Maine!"

Marsha Blackburn was right.

We lived through the disaster of TennCare.

The same thing will happen with Obamacare, only worse.
