Socialized medicine, takeover of many companies/bailouts/TARP, Cap’n Trade, stimulus boondoggles, card check…

There are plenty of reasons to dislike Obama if you are a conservative.

Except that socialized medicine is not what he’s ever suggested. Socialized medicine would be the government employing all the doctors and owning all the hospitals. Not going to happen, hasn’t been proposed, to my knowledge.

The bank bailouts were begun in the Bush Administration, the stimulus bill has been given credit by most economists as preventing a second great depression, and although the government was involved in taking over GM and Chrysler to a certain extent, I don’t see any compelling evidence that they intend to keep ownership any longer than necessary.
