That’s the anti-life Obama healthcare plan in a nutshell.

"Old people never seem to die, they just get in the way." That's not exactly what a famous American said but Obama's scary health care (Obamascare) says it's close enough

Government public service announcement
Now! Obamascare with new PELOSI! Palliative End of Life Optimum Serenity Initiative (PELOSI) cuts health care costs 75 percent! . . . .

I despise fed takeover of healthcare as much as anyone-—including medicare— but stealing from the too young to vote to provide healthcare on demand for the elderly is immoral. Having voted the treasury to provide us with our desires, we are now resorting to voting future treasure to maintain what we want for ourselves. That has got to stop, and if that means the elderly have to pay more for their own or do without, that is less of a sacrifice than we are putting on generations to come or what others before us gave to provide us with the opportunity to give a better life to succeeding generations.

Obamacare HAS to kill (literally) seniors in thier anticipated last two years of life. That is where the expenses are.

Then you will love Obama's choice for his budget committee, Alan Simpson.

You clearly show the difference between Libertarians and Conservatives.

Baby Boomers have become senior citizens so we aren’t just talking about the very elderly here. We are talking about the majority of the population.

Not so clear to me how my comments show the difference, care to explain?

If you don't know, it wouldn't make any difference what I said.
