Donald Berwick, Obama's nominee to head up the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, made himself infamous earlier this year when video came to light showing him telling a British audience how much he admired their socialist healthcare system because it "redistributes" the Brit's wealth.
Berwick went all warm and fuzzy over the socialist features of the British National Health Service saying,“Any health care funding plan that is just, equitable, civilized, and humane must, must redistribute wealth from the richer among us to the poorer and the less fortunate. Excellent health care is by definition redistributional." The Heartland Institute had an extensive report on Berwick's British address back when the video first surfaced...
Here’s the live blog discussion.

Berwick is worse than a socialist. He is a bloody utilitarian mass murderer, who is serving as an enabler of obama’s muslim death plan. And there are others just like him in and around the obama Administration, like Little Tommy Daschle, the Emanuels, and Kathleen Sibelius.
Repeal obamacare, and bring all these perpetrators to justice!!!!
Like needless excerpting.
Sounds great but the but there is a basic flaw in this thesis. Not even many of the “wealthy” can afford “really good” health care, so how can we expect to redistribute excellent health care to the “poorer and less fortunate”.
Based on the British and European models, Obama care style health systems provide very poor, rationed health care at cost so enormous that the system eventually becomes bankrupt.
“...the system eventually becomes bankrupt.”
That is the result with ANY socialist system, of course.
The next Republican President is going to need the entire fleet of “Got Junk” trucks to clean out the vermin Obama inserted.

Let’s hope most of Congress is part of that clean out!
