Death Panel Recommends Death
The Virginian ^ | 9/18/2014 | Moneyrunner

Posted on 09/18/2014 4:47:14 AM PDT by moneyrunner

So it begins: Panel Urges Overhauling Health Care at End of Life

Taking care to make sure that Republicans are implicated, the NY Times hails death of the elderly.

“The current system is geared towards doing more, more, more, and that system by definition is not necessarily consistent with what patients want, and is also more costly.”

The operative word here is "costly."I have no problem with any old person expressing the wish to be left to die in peace. I have a big problem with Death Panels deciding that death is cheaper than life and making that the national goal.

The Times dresses up the panel as the best minds in medicine: The 21-member nonpartisan committee, appointed by the Institute of Medicine, the independent research arm of the National Academy of Sciences, called for sweeping change. Does anyone have any doubt that the panel would come out for more death for the elderly to save money? That's as inconceivable as a government panel on climate coming out with a report that global warming is a hoax. The results are preordained.

Palin was right ... again.

In the past, liberals just wanted to kill babies. Now they want to kill old people, too.

So mainly, they just want to kill the weak. Muslims like to kill the weak, also.

But liberals sure do crave them some killing.

Plunder and death for the debt slaves servicing the socialists? Who’da thunk it?

That was to be expected. Once one takes the first step [the killing of babies] the second step is easier[ the killing of the old ] . The next step will be the killing of the infirm and disabled, then comes the killing of the non producers. It never stops, it just continues one step at a time.

So mainly, they just want to kill the weak

And the innocent, that are unable to defend themselves. That is the Democrat Party motto: Protect the guilty[murders],kill the innocent [unborn and partially born babies]. The only life the Democrats considered sacred is that of a convicted cold bloodied murder. Why? Could be that they feel a close kinship to the individual, if not that I have no idea..

Libs believe in protecting the guilty and punishing the innocent. It's totally consistent with their "belief" in leveling out society.

Sadly, this isn’t hyperbole but a possible path to it.

The operative word here is “costly.”

They never look at the costs of ‘Education’ or ‘Welfare’ in this manner. As the Left run out of ‘Other People’s Money’; will they take a serious look at exterminating the uneducated? Will welfare have a set limit; a dead end?

Yep, DC is obsessed with death panels for US citizens as they spend billions and work to send thousands of US healthcare workers/dollars to afrika for the afrikan continents latest contribution to world health, ebola. Darn old, white, conservative US citizens must be culled to make room for the unwashed masses from other countries.
