By Emanuel ‘s logic anyone not paying into the system should be denied health care. Therefore anyone on welfare or not paying into the system, should be denied health care. This seems the avenue to attack this fool.
My dad is working because he WANTS to, he's not one to sit in a rocking chair.
Awesome! My dad works because he is bored when he’s at home. My mom couldn’t keep their big house anymore. To much work. So they down-sized. So dad has nothing else to keep him busy. He likes his job.
“The fact that this man was even allowed in the room for the healthcare debates is scary. The fact that he lead the debates tells you just how screwed up the law IS!”
Perfect.
I read this yesterday, not realizing who he was.
As I read article I wondered what he had to do with the annointed one.
I second your words.
I have been working nearly fulltime since I was 12 (parents owned a restaurant).
I have been paying in to SS for more than 40 years and I cannot retire and draw from it for seven more (@62).
Not that I’m a fan of SS, I wish I had control of my own money...
Let private insurance companies offer parts B and D to seniors, to those who want them. The insurance companies without government propping them up will keep prices in line.
Why should the gov subsidize people who are always running to the doctors and take drugs for everything? The cost of those drugs would go down if people actually had to pay for the stuff. JMHO
And probably sheds light on the thinking of the Mayor of Chicago too.
You make a good point; the pertinent point in the argument. One has to wonder what these people would say if another man decided that they were of no worth to society and decided to rid it of them. When confronted directly with the argument and the business end of a gun, what would come across their lips? I think it would be first incredulous-ness that any man would judge their worth, followed by groveling for their life.
Bump.
As I read this article I thought about my 81 year old mother. She recently had a mastectomy and chemo.
She has bounced back and resumed her normal, active life. Works a couple days a week in the church. Cooks for the sick. Is shopping for new car and planning a trip to Europe next summer.
I think she is more alive than the author.
Then you are on your own...
So do we still have to contribute for our whole working lives?
And, if not, how can a 21 year old get anything since he can't have put much of anything into the system?

Here is the primary evil of the original article: “...forces each of us to ask whether our consumption is worth our contribution.”
Sounds a lot like “useless eaters.”
This, truly, is the end result of leftist/statist policies.
I have been reading Paul Johnson’s “Modern Times” and an amazed again at the parallels between the Axis Powers and today’s liberal ideology as expressed by Obama and his cult.
Democrat former governor of Colorado Richard Lamm thirty years ago declared, seriously ill old people have a duty to die.
"You old people.. don't you love America? Then die already!" Obama-scare.
The Nazi in addition to killing Jews, the targeted groups included Ukrainians (of whom 3 million approximately were killed), Poles (2.5 million) and other Slavic peoples; Soviets (particularly prisoners of war); Romani people (also known as Gypsies) and others who did not belong to the Aryan Herrenvolk (Master Race) such as people with mental disorders, the deaf, the physically disabled, those with learning disabilities; gay men (and occasionally lesbians), transgender people; political opponents (such as communists, social democrats, socialists, anarchists and others with left-wing political views); and religious dissidents.

Yes. In addition to 6 million Jews, the Nazis gassed 6 million Catholics, including priests and nuns.
Per Roosevelt, Social Security was designed to pull people capable of working out of the workforce...to permenantly reduce the participation rate. So Emanuel wants to subject those to whom that was applied to then be put at risk of euthanasia for treatable medical issues.
