Praise for Why ObamaCare Is Wrong for America

"Why ObamaCare Is Wrong for America is carefully researched, well written, and a must read for anyone concerned about the future of health care in our nation. It proves without a doubt that this law will bankrupt our nation and hurt economic growth."

--Rep. John A. Boehner

"This timely and lucid book is the thinking person's answer to two questions: Why is this fight crucial to Americans' health and America's civic health? And how can it be won?"

--George F. Will

"An essential handbook in saving us from medical socialism and bringing true free markets to health care--which, in turn, will generate more health care at less cost!"

--Steve Forbes

Thomas P. Miller is a resident fellow at AEI.
