Kennedy's Blueprint for American Enslavement

Ted Kennedy died of brain cancer last week, and of course, political leaders are calling for the passage of ObamaCare; DO IT FOR TEDDY!

No doubt Kennedy has quite a legislative record, however his bills have laid foundation for many of today's ills in the US.

1964: Head Start

-- Provided meals and early education to pre-school children through the Employee Opportunity Act.

The More You Know: The Centers for Disease Control reported last month that pre-school age obesity rates "has stabilized in the last 5 years" and now 1 in 7 preschool age children are obese. Interestingly, in 2005, the government funded approximately 900,000 head start slots for children, not including Hispanics, with 800,750 slots awarded to the (Black and White Kids) Head Start program and the American Indian–Alaska Native Head Start program. Indians and Alaskan Native childhood obesity rates are 21.2%. Hispanics, a major low-income group in America, have an obesity rate of 18.5%, but Head Start has not released any enrollment numbers for Hispanics because it is a difficult population to track, according to the government.

CDC epidemiologist Dr. Andrea Sharma states, "reducing obesity rates require policy changes that promote physical activity and good nutrition." Good nutrition is what Head Start was designed to do, and is failing to do: The CDC reports that pre-school obesity rates has doubled since the 1970s.

Could Head Start be a part of the problem? The programs feeds kids that are experiencing more obesity.

1965: Hart-Cellar Act:

-- Changed immigration policy to abolish quotas and lift a 1924 ban on immigration from Asia.

From Wikipedia:
During debate on the Senate floor, Kennedy, speaking of the effects of the act, said, "First, our cities will not be flooded with a million immigrants annually. Under the proposed bill, the present level of immigration remains substantially the same.... Secondly, the ethnic mix of this country will not be upset.... Contrary to the charges in some quarters, [the bill] will not inundate America with immigrants from any one country or area, or the most populated and deprived nations of Africa and Asia.... In the final analysis, the ethnic pattern of immigration under the proposed measure is not expected to change as sharply as the critics seem to think.... The bill will not flood our cities with immigrants. It will not upset the ethnic mix of our society. It will not relax the standards of admission. It will not cause American workers to lose their jobs."[2] The act's supporters not only claimed the law would not change America's ethnic makeup, but that such a change was not desirable.[1]

The More You Know: Look at this graph. Listen to the news, immigrants are bankrupting the Medicaid and Food Stamp programs, simply because they are let into our country poor and hungry. Objectively speaking, we Americans know that immigrants have taken a lot of American jobs, from construction jobs, to the medical field, and they are underpaid. Immigrants are a major humanitarian problem for the US. Wasn't immigration reform one of the talking points in the 2008 presidential election?

Today's immigration problems started with Ted Kennedy. What he said in 1965 would not happen, did happen, and will continue until this bill is repealed.

1968: Bilingual Education Act

-- Mandated for schools to provide bilingual education programs.

The More You Know:
It is unconstitutional for the US federal government mandate that States teach one language, over another. In the US we do not have an official language, so how can the government demand every school in the nation teach English? This is oppressive legislation for immigrants; first the government lifts the immigration ban, and then forces all the schools to teach them English, which utterly destroys their native language, culture, and customs.

1970: Voting Age

-- Lowered the age to vote to 18.

The More You Know: The voting age was lowered to appease soldiers returning from the Vietnam War. These men and women fought, but didn't have the right to vote. However, Kennedy did not support lowering the drinking age to 18--it would take too much money and power away from the government. Many states, like Kansas and Colorado, look at curbing underage drinking as a revenue raising opportunity.

1971: Federal Cancer Research Program

-- Quadrupled the amount of money spent by the federal government to fight cancer.

The More You Know: According to the Journal of Clinical Oncology, cancer rates are expected to increase by 45% from 1.6 million in 2010 to 2.3 million in 2030, just in the United States. When Hispanics are reported to have a higher rate of cancer, just by moving to the US, you know the federal government is not succeeding in fighting cancer.

1972: Meals on Wheels

-- Strengthened the federal program offering nutritional meals to homebound seniors.

The More You Know: According to The Causes, Consequences, and Future of Senior Hunger in America, seniors with food insecurity, or being on food stamps (another gov'ment program), have a higher rate of needing Meals on Wheels. The same study states that the growth of the "non-white population" in America, will increase the number of hungry seniors. Plus, 50% of seniors at risk for hunger, have incomes above the poverty line, which means their money is paying for medical expenses not food.

Wonder if Kennedy knew Meals on Wheels would support seniors drowning in rising health care costs? If he did, why not call for health care reform, instead of a funding a social charity program that supports rising health care costs?

1972: WIC

-- Offered food, nutrition counseling and health services to low-income women, infants, and children.

The More You Know: You know childhood obesity rates have increased since the 1960s, and of course 2/3 of American adults over age 20 are obese and/or overweight. Yet, WIC, or Women Infants and Children, claims to:

-- Children are more likely to have a regular source of medical care and immunizations
-- Children who receive WIC benefits demonstrate improved intellectual development
-- SIGNIFICANTLY improves children’s diets

WIC "supports" breastfeeding, but at the same time provides women free formula for one year, an act that destroys the option to breastfeed. If you're poor and can't buy a can of 25 dollar formula, you breastfeed.

Not to mention that WIC vouchers limit the nutrition needed by pregnant/nursing women, infants and children. A recipient receives approximately 5 vouchers a month, each voucher provides one or more of the following:

Milk
Juice
Cereal
Eggs
Cheese
Peanut butter
Carrots (for breastfeeding women only)
Tuna (for breastfeeding women only)
Beans

The amount and types of foods depend on whether the food is being provided for an infant (up to 12 months), a child up to five years, a pregnant woman, a non-breastfeeding woman (post-partum, up to six months), or a breastfeeding woman (up to one year). Specifications are given for the forms that each food is allowed to be purchased in

Once the vouchers are gone, the woman returns to health department for another screening, usually a quick medical test, and more vouchers are provided. Notice that WIC limits amounts and types of food based on who it is for (pregnant woman, nursing/not nursing, and kids), limits are not based on NEED. The government uses the food pyramid to determine how much each of the four food groups your CLASSIFICATION of person needs, not your INDIVIDUAL needs.


1972: Title IX

-- Demanded equal funding for men's and women's athletics on college campuses.

The More You Know: Equality sounds so nice and peachy. But let's face it, a male football team is going to require more money than the girls softball team. More equipment and gear is needed to play football than softball. Equality is a sweet word for it's synonym: mediocrity. Men and women are prohibited from competition that creates greatness and innovation under the guise of "equality for ALL!"

Title IX, uses certain factors to determine if equal treatment exists, including: "Opportunity to receive coaching and academic tutoring on mathematics only;"

This factor is clearly for women only. Women score lower than men in math, so women must be provided with math tutoring only...not science tutoring, nor funding for educational classes that enhance math (like drafting class)..nope, just math.

1974: Campaign Finance

-- Imposed limits on contributions to political candidates and set up a public financing option, post-Watergate.

The More You Know: The bill established the Federal Election Commission, a public election fund. That's right, millions of tax dollars a year are sent to the FEC and then given to one presidential candidate, at the current President's discretion. Not to mention, the FEC uses your money to support either a Democrat or Republican, no other political party is given money by the American people to run for president, thanks to Kennedy. In essence, "campaign finance" created a two-party dictatorship in the US.

1975: Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA)

-- Guaranteed free and appropriate public education to children with disabilities.

The More You Know: Keyword: appropriate. The government determines what is an appropriate education for disabled children. What is appropriate? Group think.

I witnessed the enforcement of IDEA on my brother. The schools labeled him "learning disabled" and developed an "individual education plan (IEP)" for him--however at age 16 my brother dropped out of school. IDEA forced him to drop out, because my brother is NOT disabled, he is an over-medicated millennium child who sees what the educational system really is: BULLSHIT. IDEA is used to stagnate each child's individualism, and make them conform to group thinking by silencing their individuality. If a child doesn't learn by watching movies, writing sentences, and doing worksheets, then the child is disabled, and must be forced to learn the proper way....IDEA stifled our American teachers' professionalism by limiting what could be done by teachers to teach a child by merely giving them a few solutions as defined on an IEP worksheet.

1978: Civil Rights Commission Act Amendments

-- Expanded the jurisdiction of the Civil Rights Commission to protect people from discrimination on the basis of disability.

The More You Know: Equality=Mediocrity. For example, Walgreens has hired hundreds of disabled workers to worker at their South Carolina warehouse. Every week at Walgreens, we have trouble with our truck. Merchandise is mis-picked, merchandise is labeled wrong, and at least 5-10 products are damaged every truck day, equaling hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of lost revenue a year for each store, in revenue and lost payroll time to correct these mistakes. We don't complain as much anymore, we understand we have to accept the mistakes because they are disabled. Forget how much money the dee-dah-dees are costing us Walgreens, society pays the ultimate price with higher prices on goods to support disabled Americans.

Do disabled workers need jobs? Sure, but I don't think a government forcing private businesses to hire disabled workers is constitutional, because it enfringes on the businesses' right to hire who they feel is best for the job.

1978: Airline Deregulation

-- Allowed airlines to choose their own fares, reducing costs for consumers.

The More You Know: Airfare prices have continued rise, limited access to flying to upper-middle to upper classes. Many current price hikes go unreported to the public. Before this bill was enacted, Congress set airfares, claiming airlines were a public utility, just like railroads. Kennedy made the use of airplanes a privilege, not a right, in America.

1980: Refugee Act

-- Established a U.S. policy for providing humanitarian assistance, admission and resettlement to refugees around the world.

The More You Know: The Refugee Act created the Office of Refugee Resettlement (another government agency providing government jobs) which provides cash, jobs, medical screenings, and English as a second language to certain refugees. Most importantly, the agency determines where refugees can and cannot live. If there are too many Rwandans in New York, then the Rwandan must go where there isn't that many Rwandans (unless an immediate family member lives in New York). Even though American immigrants historically tend to create their own immigrant communities--this Act prohibits refugees from creating a refugee community. First by locating them away from other refugees and next by taking away their language and forcing them to learn English.

Senator Kennedy, this legislation is meant to suppress refugee freedom, not enhance.

1981: Fuel Assistance

-- Provided home heating fuel for low-income and working poor families.

The More You Know: What FoxNews did not publish:

The FY 1981 program expanded the use of HHS (Health and Human Services)funds to assist with medically necessary cooling costs along with home heating costs and weather related and supply shortage emergencies. 1.85 BILLION appropriation.


Prior to the passage of Fuel Assistance, 6 other programs were put in enacted to help poor Americans, "As the result of the increase in oil prices resulting from the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) oil embargo in 1973." From 1973-1981, the Feds spent 2,154,678,000 to combat the oil embargo, 1.6 Billion in 1980 alone!

Think of what kind of fuel we have today if that 3 billion dollars was invested in alternative fuel research instead of ONLY going to help the poor. I'm positive 9/11/01 would not have occurred if Kennedy didn't push this bill on bleeding hearts in America.

1983: Martin Luther King Day

-- Established a national holiday to celebrate Martin Luther King's birthday.

The More You Know: The great Martin Luther King, Junior was assassinated on April 4, 1968. Kennedy took 15 years to federally recognize the birth of MLK? Why not the death? Oh, because Kennedy doesn't want you snooping around and finding out the real killer of MLK. Even the surviving King family doesn't believe James Earl Ray killed MLK.

Way to distract Americans from the real issue Teddy.

1984: Improved Access to Polling Stations

-- Required polling stations to provide physical accessibility for physically disabled and elderly people on federal election days.

1986: Employment Opportunities for Disabled Americans Act

-- Allowed disabled workers to receive SSI benefits and Medicaid coverage.

The More You Know: More people receiving assistance, equals more tax dollars to support SSI and Medicaid. This legislation has allowed private companies to get away with not supporting their injured workers, because now big daddy gov'ment will take care of them, by sending workers 400 bucks a month, to live on, and free "medical" care. Imagine if the gov'ment did not provide this assistance, then workers would get income and insurance from their employers (who are partially responsible for the workers' getting hurt), I bet disabled workers would get a lot more than 400 bucks a month.


1986: Anti-Apartheid Sanctions


-- Banned the purchase of gold, coal, iron, and other goods from South Africa to protest apartheid.

The More You Know: These sanctions did nothing but drive up the price of gold, coal, and iron....and "other" goods by making the market scarce, yet demand was still high. Big example, is gold. In 1980 gold was about $500 per ounce, and fell to $327 in 1985, by 1989, the price was back up to $401, and has stayed above 300 bucks, until 1997, 4 years after the sanctions were lifted.
It takes about 4 years start trading and develop business partners after 7 years of sanctions.

1987: Even Start

-- Offered early education, family literacy and related services to disadvantaged parents and their children.

The More You Know:
See Head Start 1964. Moreover, now the government can start indoctrinating parents, as well as kids, into the educational system. These programs tell parents what books to read, what kinds of foods to eat, as well as what behavior is "normal" for kids. 1984.

1988: Fair Housing Act Amendments

-- Prohibited discrimination towards people with disabilities in the sale or rental of housing.

The More You Know: Do you know how expensive it is to make a home handicap accessible? You know why housing is so expensive? Because the cost to comply with government laws, is passed to you, the consumer. Not to mention, this "FAIR HOUSING ACT" prohibits a landlord from charging extra rent for pets. THAT IS NOT FAIR. As a pet owner, who pays 30 extra dollars in rent to have pets, I don't think a blind person should not have to pay. Pets damage property, even if it's your seeing eye dog! Landlords lose money, and have to repair damage out of their pocket, instead of you the renter paying for it yourself. So, we the non-disabled renters are forced to pay higher pet rent. Thanks Kennedy!

1989: National Military Child Care Act


-- Established the Department of Defense child care system.

The More You Know: This did so much more than merely create the DoD child care system. Under this act, privilege is given to military spouses for hiring, or promotion within, the position of child care employee. The law gave unearned privilege to military spouses in the childcare workforce. Why? Is a military spouse that much better at childcare than a civilian? Well, from the government's perspective, I suppose it is true.

1990: Americans with Disabilities Act


-- Prohibited discrimination against any qualified individual with a disability in job application procedures, hiring or discharge, compensation, advancement and training.

The More You Know: Didn't the expansion of the civil rights commission, Kennedy's previous bill, do the same thing? Oh, it added compensation and advancement and training to the list of DISABLED WORKERS MUST HAVE:

As a woman, I am upset that on the basis that disabled workers need equal treatment, federal laws and mandates get put into place to advance disabled folks, instead of women. Women, in 2009, are underpaid, overworked, and overtaxed, as opposed to our male co-workers, generally speaking. Not to mention, more men are in high ranking positions than women. This law is unconstitutional, because it favors one group over another, causing civil unrest among the unprotected groups, like women.

1990: Ryan White CARE Act

-- Provided assistance to states to develop effective and cost-efficient AIDS care programs, aimed particularly at early diagnosis and home care.

The More You Know: Ryan's act pays for HIV/AIDS patients to receive reimbursement for expensive health care, medical care, and even WIC (yes, the government program). The program gets about 2.5 million a year, of course the budget gets bigger as the cases of HIV/AIDS get higher. Why are more people getting AIDS? Why no research to cure AIDS?

Interestingly enough, the Act is aimed to at "early diagnosis", that translates to: more patients to feed AIDS/HIV drugs to, and get the American taxpayer to fund their "care". The average AIDS patient is on 15-20 medications. That's a lot of money to be kept barely alive.

1991: Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty

-- Halved the world's nuclear arsenal through cooperation with the U.S.S.R.

The More You Know: Where did the warheads go? They are still in underground bunkers in the US! Read my blog for February 2009, in which 100 million of Obama's recovery money went to "formerly utilized" military sites in the Midwest, to "clean up" nuclear waste. Not to mention, Russia has never verified whether or not we Americans actually did destroy our nukes, of course the treaty only allowed the Russians to view one site, and the US stopped checking Russia's 2 sites (of course Russia has more than 2 nuclear sites, Americans were only allowed to verify 2 of several) in 1995. There is no proof this treaty worked. If we Americans felt it worked, why are we so worried about terrorists getting nukes? If the US and Russia destroyed ALL theirs in the 90s?

1991: Women in Combat

-- Lifted the ban on women serving as combat aviators.

The More You Know:
So Kennedy championed equal pay, training, and compensation for disabled Americans, but merely made it legal for women to fight in combat for America? No equal pay for women, nope, women can now go fly a plane and risk being shot down by Iraqi forces, held prisoner, raped, and left, like Jessica Lynch (who testified to Congress that the US lied to the media about her capture), all thanks to Kennedy. Guess it's just more drama to get Americans ready to support war and more bodies to go fight the war, right Kennedy?

1992: Summer Jobs for Youth Program

-- Appropriated $500 million to give 300,000 youth with summer employment.

The More You Know:
This program classifies children into different job categories, and sends the ones who fit the "mold" to jobs, while the "not qualified" youth don't get jobs. It's a government run apprenticeship program. The government decides what jobs youths receive, and gives the businesses the money to pay the youth they accept. Guess what, most of these jobs are Government Jobs.

1992: Mammography Quality Standards Act

-- Ensured the safety and accuracy of mammograms and promoted the use of the procedure

The More You Know: Mammography's emit more radiation than a chest x-ray. Why is this amount of radiation, each year for some women, considered good? The recommended force to be used in order to compress the breast tissue enough for a proper mammogram is 300 newtons. That's the equivalent of stacking 50 one-pound bags of sugar on the breast. Fifty pounds on the breast will cause injury! Hence causing a tumor, that MIGHT turn cancerous!

1993: National and Community Service Trust Act


-- Created AmeriCorps and the Corporation for National and Community Service to help expand volunteerism and education grants for students who choose to volunteer for service after college.

The More You Know: These programs made the National Guard available to go fight in Iraq and Afghanistan. Without AmeriCorp, New Orleans would not have been cleaned up. The National Guard was not available to help with Hurricane Katrina, because they were deployed overseas, and allowed to be deployed, because the "volunteers" would save America from natural disasters and domestic threats. Yea right, volunteers don't do as well as trained workers.

1993: Student Loans

-- Allowed students to borrow money for college directly from the federal government.

The More You Know: All the college students out there who are unemployed please stand up! Yea! They are thanking gov'ment for partially funding their college education, that landed them a job, which they just got laid off of, and now owe 18,000+ in debt for that education, which is now worthless to 25% of college educated workers!

1994: Family and Medical Leave Act

-- Provided up to 12 weeks of unpaid leave for family emergencies or after the birth of infants.

1994: Crime Act


-- Secured funding for 100,000 new police officers, imposed new penalties for crimes involving gangs and firearms and authorized the Police Corps, a program to award college scholarships to students in return for a commitment to serve as police officers.

The More You Know: Police Corps selection criteria include physical and mental capabilities, emotional characteristics, character, motivation and dedication to public service and law enforcement, scholastic record, work experience outside of law enforcement, and community involvement. Sounds like the federalization, or standardization, of America's police force. This program was suspended on 12/12/07, but claims to have indoctrinated over 3000 policemen and women.

Gang crimes? Gang violence, activity, and membership is up in the US. Gangs are the gov'ment's drug cartel competitors.

1996: Kennedy-Kassebaum Act

-- Enabled employees to keep health insurance after leaving their job and prohibited insurance companies from refusing to renew coverage on the basis of preexisting medical conditions.

The More You Know: Another legislative act that adds to cost of health care in the US. If a worker gets fired, then sure the bill makes sense, but if you're sick and want to "leave" your job, then you pay for preexisting conditions and new insurance.

1996: Mental Health Parity Bill

-- Eliminated limits on mental health coverage that differ from other covered illnesses.

The More You Know: Reason #1 why mental health care is outrageously expensive! Many are unnecessarily hospitalized and medicated, hence insurance companies set a cap on mental health costs. Mental health=pharmaceutical company profits

1996: Temporary Assistance to Needy Families Act

-- Established Welfare-to-Work Initiatives to reduce the number of families dependent on government assistance.

The More You Know: These "welfare to work" initiatives did nothing but create more people receiving assistance. TANF is the lowest amount of assistance a needy person can get, but when you apply for TANF, you are also told what other more lucrative programs you qualify to receive assistance. In 2000, there were about 643,000 Americans receiving social government assistance, in 2006, 822,000.

1996/2007: Minimum Wage


-- Increased the minimum wage from $4.25 to $5.15 in 1996, and then again from $5.15 in 2007 to $7.25 by 2009.

1997: State Children's Health Insurance Program (SCHIP)

-- Supported state efforts to provide health insurance to uninsured children in low-income families.

The More You Know: Low incomes always get brought into the political arena as needing government help, because we Americans want to help them. Prior to government intervention and regulation of the medical industry, herbal and holistic medicine, which has been proven to be just as effective as Western modern medicine, was affordable and accessible to the poor. However the government imposed sanctions and laws that regulated herbal medicine out of business. The Food and Drug Administration will never approve caffeine as a cure for asthma, even though inhalers contain ephedrine, which is a stimulant similar to caffeine. Why no approval? Caffeine is found in nature, and you can't patent, or profit, from something God created, but if a lab takes out the caffeine, puts it into an inhaler, then the FDA will approve the drug, and your doctor will give it to you. Imagine how much more affordable coffee is to poor people, then an inhaler. Gov'ment is to blame for rising health care costs.

Government, and especially Kennedy's legislation, extensively laid the ground work for American Enslavement under the government run food, education, work, wage, energy and health care regulations. If it's not government approved, it doesn't happen in America. Prior to legislation forcing American tax payers to help the poor and sick, Americans donated money to churches and non-profits to help those in need. Now, with Bush and Obama, the government is funding churches and non-profits, further inhibiting America's freedom to help who they want to help.

Below is more of Kennedy's record. H1N1 is here. Kennedy's legislation prepared us.

2000: Minority Health and Health Disparities Research and Education Act

-- Improved data systems and research on the extent and severity of minority health problems, and authorized significant resources to help enhance the delivery of health care to minorities.

2000 Public Health Threats and Emergencies Act

-- Introduced initiatives to control the spread of germs resistant to antibiotics, and to protect the country against bioterrorism.

2001: No Child Left Behind Act

-- Required more rigorous testing of public school students and permitted parents to transfer their children from low-performing to higher-performing schools.

2002: Bioterrorism Preparedness Act

-- Established plan to help the country prevent, prepare for and respond to bioterrorism and other public health emergencies.

2002: Enhanced Border Security and Visa Entry Reform Act

-- Expanded the country's intelligence and law enforcement capabilities to help identify individuals who have violated visas or have links to terrorist organizations.

2003: Up-Armored Humvees

-- Provided funding for additional armor for military vehicles to meet the safety needs of American troops.

2003: PROTECT Act

-- Provided funding for AMBER Alert notification systems along U.S. highways and awarded grants to states for the implementation of improved communication technologies.

2005: Gulf Coast Recovery and Preparedness Act

-- Provided emergency funding to assist in the recovery efforts after Hurricane Katrina.

2006: Family Opportunity Act

-- Provided states the opportunity to expand Medicaid coverage to children with special needs and allowed low- and middle-income families with disabled children the ability to purchase coverage under the Medicaid program.

Freedom of Choice, Freedom for life

Seems to be a lot of talk lately about all the "chatter", or opposition, to Obama's Healthcare plan. The news media seems to be labeling all opposition as bad, good for nothing nay-sayers who like to scream in disagreement at town hall meetings. Of course this is the way the media distracts the American people from actually TALKING about the healthcare plan.

So let's talk. Did you know Obama's healthcare advisor is Dr. Ezekeil Emanuel, who is a sly little man, who first supported euthanasia, but now says he does not. (sidenote, Emanuel is Rob Emanuel's, Obama's Chief of Staff, brother...no nepotism going on there...yea right)

Emanuel, wrote and published an article titled,"What are the Potential Cost Savings from Legalizing Physician-Assisted Suicide?" by Ezekiel J. Emanuel and Margaret P. Battin, New England Journal of Medicine, 1998.

The co-author of this article, Margaret Battin, supports other such cost-cutting programs like, "Should Medical Care be Rationed by Age?, edited by T. Smeeding with Margaret P. Battin, Leslie P. Francis, and Bruce M. Landesman, Totowa, N.J.: Rowman & Littlefield, 1987. My personal favorite, which exposes her true nazi-self, "Sex & Consequences: Changing the Default Mechanism in Human Reproduction. On the conflict between population growth control and reproductive freedom; completion date 2005 or 2006. In other words, POPULATION CONTROL, limiting the number of children a couple can have.



AGE BASIS FOR RECEIVING HEALTHCARE. IF YOU'RE UNDER 10 AND OVER 50 YOU GO TO THE BACK OF THE LINE. Another one of Emmanel's great journal articles, which show what a NAZI he is when it comes to healthcare.

Sure the media will say it's all the healthcare protesters are making things up...when the media flat out refuses to have a discussion. Healthcare protesters, like myself, do NOT, and will NOT, shut up and go home. I have children under 10, my parents are over 50, and if ANYONE is going to give them advice on "end of life care", it will be ME, the mother, the daughter, the sister, the granddaughter. NOT some under-paid government doctor who only has enough money to save 15 lives a year.

THE GOVERNMENT HAS NO BUSINESS GIVING HEALTHCARE ADVICE. Healthcare is best left in the hands of PRIVATE companies who want to make money, therefore they will increase the quality of healthcare, whereas the government wants to SAVE money, therefore "assisting" in the suicide, or cost-cutting.

"Medical school education and postgraduate training emphasize thoroughness. When evaluating a patient, students, interns, and residents are trained to identify and praised for and graded on enumerating all possible diagnoses and tests that would confirm or exclude them... This mentality carries over into practice. Peer recognition goes to the most thorough and aggressive physicians. The prudent physician is not deemed particularly competent, but rather inadequate. This culture is further reinforced by a unique understanding of professional obligations, specifically, the Hippocratic Oath's admonition to "use my power to help the sick to the best of my ability and judgment" as an imperative to do everything for the patient regardless of cost or effect on others."

Stated by Emmanuel, in the article, "The Perfect Storm of Over utilization", June 2008, JAMA. In the article, Emmanuel states that payments to doctors should be based on the SUCCESS of the care provided. Meaning, if a cancer treatment is new, and not really proven to be 100% successful, but might save your life, the treatment will NOT be offered to you under Obama's healthcare plan. Only those treatments that are 100% successful will be used on patients. That means there will NOT be ANY medical advancements in the future. Why would doctors try experimental procedures on patients for free?

Not only does this healthcare plan discriminate against the ages, it discriminates against patient options. It is cost cutting, not life saving. Why?

We Americans owe billions and billions of dollars to the Federal Reserve Private bank and International Monetary Fund. We cannot continue spending OUR money on petty little things like healthcare, when we have to repay our debt to the big banks.
