For decades abortion supporters argued that restrictions on abortion would cause women to die in unsafe "back alley abortions" all across the land. This scare tactic was a mantra that seemed to work quite well to spread abortions throughout the states and helped spur the Supreme Court to penumbra its way to a pseudo Constitutional "right" for abortions. But the main thrust of the tactic was ostensibly warning about unsafe medical procedures, a situation that they wanted to change. Flash forward to 2010 and we see President Barack Obama and his Democrats about to send not just abortions, but our entire medial system into a veritable "back alley" situation with a shortage of doctors, rationing, denials of service, and outrageously high insurance premiums.

The leftist disease is going to kill more people than smallpox, influenza, HIV, and all cancers combined.
My husband is 70, he’s a retired Senior Chief. So you know where that leaves us....up the creek. My anger grows by the second. Both agencies were cut 21%, which means a 42% reimbursement cut to doctors and hospitals, which will tell you they can’t afford such a hit and meet overhead.
Memphis has only ONE public hospital. It has a great trauma unit and neonatal unit. The rest sucks.
