I’ve written it before, and I’ll write it again. These leftists can’t create anything. All they can do is destroy. Think free, quality health care is possible. It’s a lie, a blatant, bald-faced lie. Free care is ALWAYS rationed care. People better make up their minds. Do they really want the post office (or a similar bureaucracy) telling them what kind of health care they can get?

I fear for my parents when I see this. I can say more but I got to go to work, millions of looters depend on me.

Always remember, the political class will ensure that they get the best health care available via We The People’s tax dollars. You, on the other hand, are expendable for the good of the state.

This may be true but when the time comes, I don't care how much money one has or how good their healthcare, they will still drool, have their diapers changed, urinate on themselves, and have to be hand fed. They can wipe their ugly old @sses with $1,000 bills and it won't make them any more comfortable. The circle of life is what it is. So, if I cash out early so be it - I'm going to a better place but, their butts will still be lying in a gold plated bed hooked up to life support. Oh, well.

You have got that right.

The ONLY relative I have in Canada who got quick care had been a city councilman of a capital of a province, and they flew out a doctor from New York for him within a week of his heart attack.

HE is the ONLY one who got that kind of response.

I’m so glad we have a home elsewhere, a country where every minute of life is valued. FUBO! I’ve already beat him at his own game. FOBO.

I think that if Obamacare is not stopped or scrapped, there cloud be a time when it could bring about more anger. Elderly and infirm people do have parents, children, grandchildren, spouses, siblings, friends and so on as the case may be. There could be a time when a loved one is denied healthcare by the death panels and they end up worse or even dying because of it. I know the old saying, "vengence in mine, sayeth the Lord," but there could be relatives here on Earth that might want their "pound of flesh" and to bring about justice and/or revenge. The people who make up the death panels, one or a few might end up "assuming room temperature" at the hands of the relative(s). I know deep down, this is wrong in the grand scheme of things but if I was on a jury judging a person who would do this, guilty or innocent, I could not vote to convict them.

I think it was Ayn Rand maybe who said, "The more laws you make, the more criminals you make", maybe I'm paraphrasing here but she is dead on right on this one.
