They support elitism, but they make no pretense of basing in on any “divine” right,

just on their humanistic, evolution-based assumption of superiority.

It’s easy to see, as well, that all this “environmentalism” and dietary studies are nothing more than well-veiled attempts to keep the “commoners” from using up the resources the elite see as rightfully theirs.

This is why the Left embraces Secular Humanism, in which the Almighty is replaced with man. Man, in their eyes not only decides what is true and what is good, they actually MAKE them into reality by mere thought.

Hence we see why the Left advocates the government controlling (fascism) if not taking over and running (socialism) the most vital aspects of society. They want to make very kind of decision into a political one.

The top elites amongst the Left know that Obamacare will result in less health care at a higher price. As it is with everything they advocate, their stated intention is far away from their real one.

The real intention is to make it so the ever-shrinking middle class and poor have to come crawling to a commissar for health care; they must justify their continued health and very existence in political terms.

The calculation is made whether keeping the elderly, disabled, chronically ill are more expensive to keep alive than any future tax contributions they may make.

Health care will also be given based upon connections or membership in a politically favored demographic. So one person living in flyover country might not get his cancer treatment, but another may get his/her/its “gender reassignment” surgery.

And yet those of us who are against this are supposed to be the heartless ones.
