I am going to post more of these old Betsy McCaughey articles to remind people that none of this is real news. We have heard it all before, but no one seemed to be listening.

This one should be titled, "Dr. EZ-Kill"

Doesn’t Ezekiel Emanuel believe that animals should be able to “bring suit” in court?

I nominate Dr. Ezekiel Emanuel for the first ObamaCare death panel. He's lived long enough already.

Everyone should have been listening to and reading Betsy McCaughey’s analyses of obamacare and the the players involved.

This man behaves like a wicked callous commissar. He may have an M.D. but he should never be confused with a physician.

What a dirty joke this man’s name is - “Ezekiel” the great prophet of the Old Testament, and “Emanuel” meaning “God with us”. I shudder to think what awaits him at the judgement.

Ezekiel sounds like a freaky Dr. Death to our ears, but he represents the standard way of thinking in socialized, government-run health care. The U.K. health system will not approve effective, safe drugs if they don’t think they’re “cost-effective” enough. There’s no reason to implement government health care unless you want to ration health care and implement “death panels.” Individuals in a free society will generally not deny themselves care or treatment. It takes a socialist government to hurt the individual for “the greater good.”

Not enough were listening, indeed. Betsy McCaughey tried sounding the clarion. I remember seeing her on FoxNews....leading up to this debacle being "passed", reading from a foot high stack of the bill.

Mark Levin had her on, recently. She was warning everyone (again) about what's to come in 2014, with the group plan cancellations.

Thank you, Eva, for posting these articles...prescient, no doubt.

We now have a face to go with this master of diatribes.

And why is rationing wrong for the health care system, even beyond the moral factor? It’s the easy way out. It’s terrible for “economic growth” in health care. Artificially decreasing demand for care and treatment by putting people into death panels will decrease the natural market forces that work to increase supply of scarce medical resources. We need to see costs going up in health care in order to know where the demand is. Then all health care providers know where the needs are and will work to produce more services and products to meet them. That’s why U.S. health care has the best QUALITY in the world by any and all surveys. Our system forces the work to be done on the supply side because we don’t have laws that artificially try to suppress demand for health care (by assisting people with suicide or making it illegal to produce safe, effective drugs).

Here are some choice quotes from the article from Dr. Death, who has a truly Hitlerian perspective on human life. Babies and the mentally disabled are first in line to the death panels along with retirees...

"Covering services provided to individuals who are irreversibly prevented from being or becoming participating citizens are not basic, and should not be guaranteed. An obvious example is not guaranteeing health services to patients with dementia."

"When implemented, the complete lives system produces a priority curve on which individuals aged roughly 15 and 40 years get the most substantial chance, whereas the youngest and oldest people get changes that are attenuated

As the legal philosopher Ronald Dworkin argues, 'It is terrible when an infant dies, but worse, most people think, when a three-year-old dies and worse still when an adolescent does,' this argument is supported by empirical surveys."

Dr. Emanuel says the United States should erect a decision-making body similar to the United Kingdom's rationing body—the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE)—to slow the adoption of new medications and set limits on how much will be paid to lengthen a life.

In 1993, he urged that President Bill Clinton impose a wage and price freeze on health care to force parties to the table. "The desire to be rid of the freeze will do much to concentrate the mind,"

If the worst were to happen and Obamacare goes into full effect, Emanuel is going to need a Secret Service detail equal to that provided that thing in the White House.
