I may be wrong, but I think that it in some way violates the MagnaCarta.

what a sad situation...

The author makes good points here, but using the Charlie Gard case as an example of "individual liberty fading into the mist" sounds bizarre to me.

If the people of Great Britain were truly free, Charlie Gard probably would have died a long time ago.

This is the moral and philosophical paradox of this kind of story ... enjoying the benefits of a totalitarian, government-run health care system while it works in your favor, then complaining about the brutal totalitarian nature of the system when it renders a decision you don't like?

The fact that they did not want to pay....okay, they’re death culture Socialists.

But they would not even allow them to take their child out of the country? What in the hell did we fight to keep them on this side of the Berlin Wall for?

Remember Hillary Clinton's famous response when challenged on what she and President Obama really knew about the Benghazi attackers in real time, while Americans were being murdered as the administration did nothing: what difference, at this point, does it make? "At this point," as I wrote at that time, gave the game away.

The “game” that it gave away is the Hillary didn’t give a **** about “Chris” - as she referred to Ambassador Stevens - or any other person not currently useful to Hillary. Emphatically including the families of the fallen.

A characteristic which clearly made her “the most qualified person ever to run for the presidency.”
