Government sponsored euthanasia only affects a very small, relatively isolated group of people. That’s how they get away with it. Most people are relatively healthy, so nationalized health care works well for them. All they need are routine checkups and common medications. Only a much smaller group of seriously ill people see the true impact of government health care.

When you’re living your last years in a nursing home, for example, you’re relatively isolated, even from your immediate family members. All your son our daughter will know is that you got sick and died. They won’t generally find out that the government’s doctor over dosed you with narcotics or withheld your food and water to kill you.

If government is picking up the tab, employing the doctors, and operating the hospitals, there’s little incentive to waste money on terminally sick people. On the other hand, a private system makes money the longer they keep you alive, that is if you’re privately insured or funded.

Bottom line: Don’t ever believe the propaganda that nationalized health care is good unless you really don’t care how you’re treated when your turn comes.

you'd be surprised how often its the FAMILY of very sick elderly that want them dosed up so they die quicker....you would be shocked infact...

I mean, any twitter by the poor patient and the family is demanding that we "do"something....and by that they mean more drugs...
