Omar proposes 'radical idea' to ease coronavirus pressures on hospitals
Washington Examiner ^ | 3/25/20 | Emma Colton

Rep. Ilhan Omar said she has a “radical idea” to combat the coronavirus: making all hospitals public during the pandemic.

“Here is maybe a radical idea to deal with some of the pressures our healthcare system is facing: All private hospitals should be made public for the duration of the virus,” the Minnesota Democrat tweeted Tuesday night.

Omar has previously called for "Medicare for all" and has given her support to self-described democratic socialist Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders in the 2020 Democratic presidential primary.

"Imagine if the progressives consolidated last night like the moderates consolidated, who would have won? That’s what we should be analyzing. I feel confident a united progressive movement would have allowed for us to #BuildTogether and win MN and other states we narrowly lost," Omar said, following Sanders’s Super Tuesday losses.

She should go back to Somalia and take her assorted husbands and associates with her, that would remove a number of potential hospital cases from the country. If that saves the life of just one real American, it’s worth it.

Hospitals should return to the status of regulated public utilities or be nationalized outright

I thought she was going to suggest shooting the sick or some such thing.

Her real idea is that Hospitals only admit Muslim patients.

Here’s my radical idea: Deport Omar back to Somalia... today.


Nah. Let Joe pick her as his VP candidate. I know she is not eligible, but when has that stopped Dems before?

The first thought libs have when a problem arises: turn it over to the government; they'll fix it.

What is this but nationalization of healthcare -- a socialist dream?
