Commentary: The Nazification of American Healthcare
Gold Care, Health & Wellness Blog ^ | August 2024

Posted on 04/22/2025 10:31:30 AM PDT by CondoleezzaProtege

In a world where freedom of speech and medical ethics are prized, the growing influence of authoritarian policies on American medicine is raising alarm. The Association of American Physicians and Surgeons (AAPS) has drawn attention to what they term the “Nazification of American Medicine,” suggesting that the healthcare system is increasingly mirroring totalitarian practices. This analogy is not made lightly; it reflects deep concerns about the erosion of individual rights, the centralization of power, and the suppression of dissent within the medical community.

Centralization and Control

One of the primary concerns highlighted by the AAPS is the centralization of control over healthcare decisions. Historically, Nazi Germany's regime exercised absolute control over medical practice, dictating who could receive care and what treatments were permissible. Today, there is a fear that similar patterns are emerging in the United States, where government agencies and large health organizations hold significant sway over medical protocols and patient care decisions. This centralization often leads to a one-size-fits-all approach, disregarding the unique needs of individual patients.

Suppression of Dissent

The suppression of dissenting voices is another critical issue. In Nazi Germany, physicians who opposed the regime’s policies faced severe consequences, including imprisonment and execution. While the modern American context is not as extreme, there is growing concern about the marginalization of medical professionals who challenge mainstream narratives or advocate for alternative treatments. Physicians and researchers who question prevailing medical guidelines or propose innovative therapies often face professional ostracism, loss of licenses, and public vilification.

The result is a homogenized medical narrative that stifles innovation and critical thinking…

None of these bs organizations speak for physicians. None. Too many of the people involved come from the same group of pathetic pinheads who used to write articles about ‘fisting’ (yes, they truly did) in the publications of the American Association of Medical Students.

There's a reason activist starts with the same letter as a**wipe.

The healthcare industry is deeply steeped in DEI. Whole hospital boards are overrun with DEI committees and bureaucracy. It is a mess.

If we took millions of people who are not working, nor able to work, out of our healthcare system things would clear up pretty damned fast.

Hospitals MUST treat people in ORs. Often, they do not get payment for those treatments. Yes, there is some Medicaid outlays, but they don’t cover the cost.

Hospitals cannot add staff because they don’t have the money. Staff gets overwhelmed and they leave. The whole system gets gummed up.

And I am sure in the “socialist paradise” that was NAZI Germany, the government had much more universal control over the application of healthcare.

In order to understand hospital billing it must be understood that for almost all forms of billing, insurance companies base their base level payments on what Medicare will pay. Yes different companies negotiate different payments, but Medicare is the base for everything.

In essence, we HAVE government controlled healthcare already.

Today’s primary care physician is a pharmaceutical compliance officer with a prescription pad, a corporate protocol to follow and overlords tracking their every move.

They’ve transitioned from healers to hustlers, from medical professionals to medication pushers, from trusted advisors to glorified drug dealers with better parking.

From anti-depressants to vaccines, they’re little more than street-level drug dealers.

Don’t worry, RFK’s bringing about Hillary’s Nazi healthcare dream: consolidating everyone’s every medical record in a massive government database!

oh dear

I knew things were bad the moment Dave Weldon MD’s nomination to head up the CDC was pulled.
