If we live long enough, the day will likely come when each of us will rely on someone else to care for us. I, for one, hope that when that day comes I live in a world that looks at me and sees a person, not a “problem.” Read more »

It’s interesting when even liberals mess up and accidentally acknowledge a truth they usually try desperately to bury. The New York Times has now vindicated truth-tellers like Sarah Palin who said last summer that government health care would lead to rationing and “death panels.”Read more »

There are certain issues in life that are non-negotiable, no matter how seductively the siren song of “compromise” may beckon. We understand that the way of Washington, particularly in the game of politics, is to “go along to get along.” However, at some point a line must be drawn. Read more »

The phrase “Comparative Effectiveness” is becoming increasingly in vogue among Obama health care advocates. So, it’s important to note that it actually amounts to little more than a euphemism for health care rationing. Read more »

Most would agree that conserving resources and minimizing adverse impacts on the environment make sense, but something has gone terribly awry within the Green Movement. Environmental extremists championing “population control” as a means of protecting Mother Earth show that they have little regard for the human species. Read more »

If our leaders in Washington are unable or unwilling to come up with a uniquely American solution to the health care issue, and if the looming healthcare crisis continues to be exploited by leaders on the Left simply as a means to a greater ideological end, there is good reason to fear that the cold comfort of England’s “care pathway” approach to end-of-life care may be coming soon to a hospital near you.

We critics of ObamaCare may have been doing ourselves a bit of a disservice over the past few months by focusing on health care “rationing.”
Yes, “rationing” best describes some of the most disconcerting effects of government run health care, and it strikes a chord with the general public. But it is rarely used [...] Read more »

Despite the foolish attempt of socialists to make the world a fair place, the imperfect nature of our fallen world ensures such attempts will always fail, and artificial means to ignore that nature will usually make things much worse. In order to be “fair” to the majority, institutional systems of redistribution must determine where resources would be wasted and take draconian steps to stem that waste where possible. That means “stemming” care to those with the least practical value to the state: infants, the disabled, and the elderly. Read more »

The British Telegraph features an article about patients under Britain’s National Health Service (NHS) wrongly determined to be close to death…and thus prime candidates to be written off by the government health care system. When Americans can look around the world and see the myriad of problems that come with socialized medicine, it’s no wonder so many of them are saying “Not on your life!” to Obamacare. Read more »

The headlines are amazing, as the denial continues on, suggesting that any claim of a death panel is a myth created by either lying right-wingers or lying special interest groups. No matter that there are already panels in the United States calling the shots over life and death. Read more »

A question asked at Senator John Thune’s recent town hall meeting in Rapid City: It has become clear that the value of human life will be measured by a formula, and taxpayer funded abortion will be included in the government health care plan. “Senator, wouldn’t it be better just to kill this bill and start over again with a different congress?” Read more »
