Wilson is right. Obama IS lying. He says that none of the people opposed to his plan have an option to offer. Well, that's just a steaming pile of bullshit. How about this option: everyone pays for their own health care up to 20% of their pre-tax income? Effectively, then, the rich will pay for all of their own health care and a lot of other people's, the poor will have a single-payer socialist health plan, and the middle-class will largely pay for their own health care but nobody will be bankrupted.
