This is why I hate Obamacare. I knew this was coming.
This is why I railed against using the IRS to enforce Obamacare.
I knew insinuating the IRS into your health care was just the beginning.
I knew going to electronic health records was going to send this country down the rabbit hole.
And here it is.
The federal government is piecing together a sweeping national biosurveillance system that will give bureaucrats near real-time access to Americans private medical information in the name of national security, according to Twila Brase, a public health nurse and co-founder of the Citizens Council for Health Freedom.
Got that? Your hemorrhoids, your breast implants, your low testosterone, the number of abortions you've had, your STD's- they're all critical to national security.
But Brase warns that the NHSS proposal would allow the federal government to monitor an individuals behavior before, during and after any government-defined health incident which could be anything from a local outbreak of the flu to a terrorist anthrax attack.Its very broad. It doesnt seem to have any limits, except they say something about, you know, properly protecting the data. But from our perspective, if the government gets access to this kind of data, [and] is allowed to do research with the data then our privacy has already been compromised. The government has already said that our data is their data for their purposes of national health security, Brase told CNSNews.com.
Its very clear to us that really the government is moving toward real-time access, toward close collaboration of government and doctors for ready access to the electronic medical record and then to conduct research and analysis.
In other words, piss someone off and they're into your health records, whether it's the IRS, Nancy Pelosi or Harry Reid.

I say make good with your local Veterinarian. Mammals are mammals.
In the same vault as birth certificates and school transcripts.
BTTT
Sounds a little TOO devious for Ol’ Scratch if you ask me.
The devil couldn’t bedevil man nearly so badly if he weren’t an angel who fell.
Notice they don’t say “to protect” WHAT? To serve WHOM?
