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.
