It is also showcased by Barack Obama’s drive towards a socialised health care system, which, as I’ve noted before, is 'a thinly disguised vanity project for a president who is committed to transforming the United States from the world’s most successful large-scale free enterprise economy, to a highly interventionist society with a massive role for centralized government.'"
