In 1993, the [[Clinton administration]] proposed a significant government-run health care reform package. Clinton had mentioned various socialized health care schemes in the 1992 election, and despite prohibitions on [[nepotism]] set up a task force headed by First Lady [[Hillary Rodham Clinton]], to come up with a "comprehensive plan" to enforce universal socialized health care on all Americans, which in addition to the [[gay agenda]] was a cornerstone of the administration's first-term.  Various documents relating to the how the Task Force spent government funds still as of yet have not been disclosed.

In 1993, the Bill Clinton proposed a significant government-run health care reform package. Clinton had avoided discussing health care plans during the 1992 election campaign. Despite prohibitions on [[nepotism]] he set up a task force headed by First Lady [[Hillary Rodham Clinton]], to come up with a "comprehensive plan" to enforce universal socialized health care on all Americans, which in addition to the [[gay agenda]] was a cornerstone of the administration's first-term.  Various documents relating to the how the Task Force spent government funds still as of yet have not been disclosed.

The recommendation, announced by President [[Bill Clinton]] in an address to Congress on September 22, 1993, consisted largely of buzzwords and slogans developed through [[focus group]]s with a complicated proposal running more than 1,000 pages.  The plan called for a mandate on job creators and employers to withhold the cost of health insurance (equal to one-eighth of [[GDP]]} from workers paychecks and funnel money to health maintenance organizations (HMOs). The plan dubbed "Hillary Care", was well-received by liberal political leaders and [[Socialism|socialist]] commentators, and was promoted by [[mainstream media]] organizations as likely to pass the [[Democratic Party|Democratic]]-controlled Congress.
