“(her main gripe is that surgeons send 85 year olds to heart surgery that is paid by the government and these 85 years olds die soon anyway)”
Do you have any idea how evil that statement was? That statement is dripping with leftism, nazism, and athiesm. This thinking is literally the earliest manifestation of the third Reichs murder spree in the 30s. The ones who weren’t worthy of living were euthanized. She has zero business being a doctor IMO. Who pays for it and who’s life is worth the time games isnt the business of some doctor. Her job is there on the table.
Her bitching about a heart procedure on an 80 year old is euthansia pure and simple. Denying life and death assistance that might give someone 5 more years is no different than killing them right then with a shot.
You are wrong. When there is socialized medicine then the death panels are not something particularly evil. They are the logical continuation.
When government is paying the Porsche of a surgeon then the surgeon goes and does things to get this Porsche. As my cousin said ... the government in Germany looked at whether the patient is alive after 6 months. So when the heart surgery became easy the surgeons wanting the government money just had to make sure the patient lives 6 months and a day after the surgery. Rote heart surgeries of people dying 6 months + one day, all paid by the government, to make the surgeons rich.
