9 Apr 2020354 Ezekiel Emanuel, an architect of Obamacare and special adviser to the director-general of the World Health Organization, has been widely cited by the news media in recent days arguing that life in the U.S. can’t fully return to normal for about 18 months, estimating that’s when a Chinese coronavirus vaccine could be broadly available.
Emanuel is also advising presidential candidate Joe Biden on the pandemic, joining Biden’s hastily assembled Public Health Advisory Committee.
While the media has been quoting Emanuel as an expert in health policy, the brother of former Chicago mayor and ex-Obama chief of staff Rahm Emanuel is more than that.
Emanuel has had a longtime and controversial fascination with healthcare rationing, writing scores of papers over the years on the ethics of allocating medical resources to a population. He is also a hyper-partisan champion of progressive policies that have sought to fundamentally transform the U.S. economy and healthcare system.
He once wrote a piece titled, “Why I Hope to Die at 75.” In the 2014 Atlantic article, Emanuel made clear that he was serious about his wish to die at 75 and even argued that “living too long is also a loss.”
Emanuel wrote:
I am sure of my position. Doubtless, death is a loss. It deprives us of experiences and milestones, of time spent with our spouse and children. In short, it deprives us of all the things we value.
But here is a simple truth that many of us seem to resist: living too long is also a loss. It renders many of us, if not disabled, then faltering and declining, a state that may not be worse than death but is nonetheless deprived...

Calling all Patriots
There are a lot of people who feel the same way that scumbag does… The big difference is He is all in favor of a bunch of government bureaucrats deciding when that is, and we want to decide that for ourselves.
Well...bye.
How old is that SOB!
I have a few.
Pelosi. Feinstein. Hoyer. Sanders.
For starters.
Joe Biden Coronavirus Advisor Ezekiel Emanuel: ‘Living Too Long Is Also a Loss’..
So if, theoretically, I was to take a ####ing bat to his head for 20 minutes he’d be good with that??
I am NOT advocating violence AT ALL. Against violence against anyone, even those on the left.
Just asking a question.
Attention Ruth B Ginsburg, your taxi to hell awaits
Many of the best times in my life has been spending time with relatives and co-workers who were in their 80s and 90s. They seemed pretty happy too.
“...It renders many of us, if not disabled, then faltering and declining,...”
I heard that he’s 63.
Sounds like he’s outlives his usefulness.
Go on with your own little trip to Hades and let everyonr judge for themselves. He would push the poison on us like it was nothing, ethics?
Hey Zeke have a massive coronary...and your filthy brother too.
He hopes he dies at 75. I hope the evil bastard dies tomorrow! Not at all surprising that he is advising the WHO. Wonder if he gave the WHO advice to cover up the outbreak so that it would spread to hurt the US and improve Dem chances in November. This vile piece of scum is a waste of oxygen.
He’s projecting.
Ask Dr. Marc Siegel. He is very happy that his 96-year-old father made a dramatic recovery from the virus, with the help of hydroxychloroquine.
Hope he dies in November ....after seeing Trump win.
LOL, Zeke follow your own advice...please stop breathing!
