Healthcare: A Key Component of Leftist Control That Needs Reform
American Thinker ^ | 10 Mar, 2022 | Lewis Dovland

If you control my access to healthcare, you control me.

Healthcare is not a right. More on that shortly.

Controlling the population is mandatory for Marxist leftist progressives. Healthcare is a major lever in that control. If you control my access to healthcare, you control me.

If you ever doubted this, the last two years of COVID-mania clearly demonstrate the fact. While most people think people’s main motivators are money and/or power, a new factor became apparent... fear. Scare the people and make them believe that their lives are about to end, and they willingly cede their freedoms to government in return for a promise to be saved from danger. But that promise is one that government cannot deliver on, even if it wanted to.

But it proved to government that it can get that control just by scaring us.

US healthcare spending ($4.1 trillion in 2020) represents almost twenty percent of our GDP and climbing, up from 17.7% in 2017. And government is not just a regulator of it, but a major purchaser, which has price pressure implications. This parallels last Thursday’s article here about the Economic balloon.

Here is PRC (Politically Repressive Canada), health care is universal (except when it isn’t). The Feds fund it, but each Province runs a separate Plan.

The Province of Quebec, the one that acts like its own country, basically dictating to Canada, what it wants (and gets from True-dolt, with a smirk and a wink), threatened to cancel the ‘universal’ health care coverage, for the ‘unvaxxed’, if they were hospitalized for ANY reason.

Thanks to Deep State we now have a de facto NHS.

Clap for carers!

BTW, I’d say staying out of the clutches of Big Med is the best reason we all have to lose any excess weight, eat healthy, and exercise.

Speaking of healthcare, get a load of this...

Meanwhile, speaking of bioweapons...

THE PRISONER: In New York State, 26.9% of Medicare-Aged Patients Who Received Fauci's 5-Day Remdesivir Protocol Died. (VIDEO)

If this claim is accurate, wonder if most of the seniors who died were dual-eligibles. If it can be proven that there was a difference in outcome based on the type of care given on the basis of insurance coverage...

I can see why Poootie invading Ukrain has been ever so convenient for our Deep State...
