Obamacare Before the Supreme Court

Interesting op-ed piece in the Washington Post. This week's Newsweek, too, notes similarities of PPACA with President Nixon's proposals. As this Post writer puts it, ‎"The individual mandate was a conservative idea that President Obama adopted to preserve the private market in health insurance rather than move toward a government-financed, single-payer system. What he got back from conservatives was not gratitude but charges of socialism — for adopting their own proposal."
