Let seniors who voted for Obama take pain pills and just deal with it.

The illegal aliens are far more deserving for free unlimited healthcare.

I remember some pol saying it was elderly peoples’ duty to the next generation to die and get out of the way. Does anyone remember who it was?

Congressional Budget Office estimates that only 1% of Medicare cuts will come from eliminating fraud, waste and abuse.

A gross overestimate! When was the last time government eliminated ANY waste, fraud, or abuse, except by completely eliminating a program (which happens about once every forty years)?

She is on FoxNews on the WAll STreet Report right now.

I hope a lot of people are watching — she is pointing out that healthcare WILL be rationed especially for seniors under Obama care, as she points out in this article as well:

“The assault against seniors began with the stimulus package in February. Slipped into the bill was substantial funding for comparative effectiveness research, which is generally code for limiting care based on the patient’s age. Economists are familiar with the formula, where the cost of a treatment is divided by the number of years (called QALYs, or quality-adjusted life years) that the patient is likely to benefit. In Britain, the formula leads to denying treatments for older patients who have fewer years to benefit from care than younger patients. “

Age discrimination by the government? ‘Sounds like a class action suit to me. When can we sue?
