Biden Taps Coronavirus 'Expert' Who Thinks 75 is the Perfect Age To Die
Townhall ^ | March 14 2020 | Bronson Stocking

Posted on 03/15/2020 8:37:39 AM PDT by SmokingJoe

For a pandemic that seems particularly fatal for the elderly, Joe Biden has tapped a so-called "expert" to advise him about the Wuhan coronavirus. The only problem with the "expert" is that he believes people should die before they get too old, saying he himself wishes to die at the age of 75. Biden is 77.

The former vice president and Democratic presidential candidate has decided to create a "Public Health Advisory Committee" to inform him about the coronavirus while the candidate campaigns for the White House. Biden is trying to paint a picture of himself as an informed, capable leader who can spearhead this nation's way out of anything. On Friday, the candidate and his team couldn't figure out how to run a virtual town hall.

One of the Democratic advisers picked to join Biden's advisory committee on the Wuhan virus is Obamacare architect and noted bioethicist Ezekiel Emanuel. In keeping with the Democrats' culture of death, Emanuel wrote a piece for The Atlantic titled, "Why I Hope to Die at 75."

In Emanuel's piece, the author talks about how everyone thinks he's crazy for wishing to die at 75 but believes "75 is a pretty good age to aim to stop." For those wondering, Emanuel is 62 years old.

"Even if we aren’t demented, our mental functioning deteriorates as we grow older," Emanuel writes. "Age-associated declines in mental-processing speed, working and long-term memory, and problem-solving are well established."

Nope. Biden’s “expert” on coronavirus actually wrote all that in an article in The Atlantic.

One FReeper refers to him as Dr. Ezekian. I hope that moniker sticks. Sorry I forgot your nick fellow FReeper.

Of course the elite will be able to purchase reprieve credits from people who die before age 75 to exempt themselves, like they always do.

Here comes the endless 2nd guessing and how the Trump Administration is doing everything wrong, which will do nothing but further panic the public.....

Like Rahm Emmanuel said, never let a crisis go to waste....especially when you plan to blame Trump for a virus...

Let Rham try explaining that away (which he probably will, being one of the best liars on the planet).

Now all he needs is the guy who developed the Obamacare website and Joycelyn Elders to round out this dream team.

Actually at 77 I benefit from Social Security and Medicare which both are supported and now may depend on those who die at 50 from heart related obesity and diabetes.

Walmart and strangely believe it medical facilities are full of them

Oh and one more thing.....

Clint produced movies at age 86 and again at 88.

The lesson: Think 90 (at least)

I’ve mentioned this before, but I think it’s worth repeating. Ezekiel Emanuel just doesn’t think 75 is a good age to die. He advocates withholding top-of-the-line medical care to anyone 75 and older. I doesn’t matter if you’re a combat veteran, or some poor slob who has paid taxes all his life.

So if you’re 75 and you cut yourself shaving, I guess Emanuel would give you a band-aid. But if you need anything more, too bad for you.

Emanuel was an architect of ObamaCare. Funny how the mainstream media never reported on his 75-and-die plan.

P.S. Sarah Palin was right. The liberals want death panels. But I’m sure that the elite would be exempt from all that.

Kind of like what’s happening in Italy, right now, with the respirators/ICU care. Folks 65++ are the ones being denied :(

Good ol’ socialized healthcare.

With due exemptions for him of course, just like all the exemptions he put in for Obamacare. Liberals are very predictable. Mass transit for everyone, private jet for me. I am talking to you Bernie Sanders.

Well, there is that 3 Score and 10 thing

Psalm 90:10
The days of our years are threescore years and ten; and if by reason of strength they be fourscore years, yet is their strength labour and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away.

Joycelyn Elders hasn’t died of something. She is 86.
