(CNSNews.com) Vice President Joe Biden told people attending an AARP town hall meeting that unless the Democrat-supported health care plan becomes law the nation will go bankrupt and that the only way to avoid that fate is for the government to spend more money.
And folks look, AARP knows and the people with me here today know, the president knows, and I know, that the status quo is simply not acceptable, Biden said at the event on Thursday in Alexandria, Va. Its totally unacceptable. And its completely unsustainable. Even if we wanted to keep it the way we have it now. It cant do it financially.
Were going to go bankrupt as a nation, Biden said.
Now, people when I say that look at me and say, What are you talking about, Joe? Youre telling me we have to go spend money to keep from going bankrupt? Biden said. The answer is yes, that's what Im telling you. (Listen to Audio)
The event, sponsored by the AARP which supports the Obama administrations plan was attended by mostly AARP members who were bussed in for the meeting.
Biden told the group that the Obama health plan will not eliminate peoples ability to choose their health care insurance and that people who cannot afford insurance will be covered by the plan.
Theyll be a deal in there so theres competition, so what youll have in there is youll have the ability to go in there and say, Now look, this is the policy I want. This is the one, Biden said.
And those people who cant afford to get in there, up to a certain income, were going to subsidize them, you get in there and well help you pay for it, Biden said.
After opening remarks by Biden and AARP CEO A. Barry Rand, the audience asked questions, which were fielded by Biden, Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius and Nancy Ann DeParle, director of the White House Office of Health Reform.
