Page 21 is a worksheet in which the veteran is asked to consider various situations and then check--whether in each case, life would be "difficult, but acceptable"--"worth living, but just barely"--or "not worth living."

...the scenarios...include: "I can no longer walk but get around in a wheelchair"--"I live in a nursing home"--"I am a severe financial burden on my family"--and "I cannot seem to 'shake the blues'".

They want to foist this thinking, these Dr. Mengele principles off on all of America. They are starting with the Vets and will move directly to the Sr. citizens in this country.

Here's how the chief architect of the plan, Dr. Ezekiel Emanuel words it...

"Ultimately, the complete lives system does not create 'classes of Untermenschen whose lives and well being are deemed not worth spending money on,' but rather empowers us to decide fairly whom to save..."

"When implemented, the complete lives system produces a priority curve on which individuals aged between roughly 15 and 40 years get the most substantial chance, whereas the youngest and oldest people get chances that are attenuated"

"Services that promote the continuation of the polity-those that ensure healthy future generations, ensure development of practical reasoning skills, and ensure full and active participation by citizens in public deliberations-are to be socially guaranteed as basic. Conversely, services provided to individuals who are irreversibly prevented from being or becoming participating citizens are not basic and should not be guaranteed."

But all is not lost. Because health care effects every one, and because the American people intrinsically know that government bureaucracy makes them less efficient, the American people are downloading the Dem Health Care Plan HERE and elsewhere and educating themselves.

They are also reading the cited quotes of the main architect of the plan and Chief Advisor to Obama on Health Care HERE and elsewhere, and seeing the context of the plan from the designer of it.

There are some issues, some particularly fundemental issues, where if someone is calling for fundamentally changing them or destroying them, that you cannot keep quiet about because they impact you directly. The agent of change (in this case Obama himself and the Congress), must hear, see, and feel the passion that is opposing him.

So it is, more and more with Obama, and particularly over Health Care which has blown the lid off and awakened America to the type of person now sitting in the White House and those abetting him in Congress.

The slumbering giant is stirring...and he's waking up hopping mad.

Keep spreading the word...the more people who discover the facts about the Health Care monstrosity, the lower his numbers will go...and the more who will really start taking a harder look at his other initiatives (stimulus, bail-outs, take overs, Cap & Trade, FOCA, etc.) all of which are equally destructive to America.

"The Complete Lives System"...has the cheesy ring of an infomercial product.

Healthcare rationing: Real scary by Newt Gingrich

Concerns about government bureaucracies gaining oversight of your treatment are not misplaced. We need reforms, but the answer is not central planning.

“If such rationing occurs, rules will be needed to determine whether to spend federal healthcare dollars on a given individual. What might those rules look like? Dr. Ezekiel Emanuel is a key healthcare advisor to President Obama and the brother of White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel. He co-wrote an academic article in January exploring the ethical challenges of valuing an individual’s life in the context of allocating medical resources that are very scarce, such as organs or vaccines.

In a 1996 article in another journal, Dr. Emanuel similarly hypothesized that “services provided to individuals who are irreversibly prevented from being or becoming participating citizens are not basic and should not be guaranteed. An obvious example is not guaranteeing health services to patients with dementia.”
