I have yet to meet a liberal that could be that easily disuaded from his ideology. The union “solution” is simply more government subsidies to fix the problem.
Solzhenitsyn wrote about people being sent to the gulags thinking, ‘If only Stalin (or the authorities, or the politburo,or...whatever power that be) was aware that I am not realy guilty, then I’ll be set free from this prison,’ only to remain incarcerated.
When more people experience the consequences of this stupid law, the liberals will continue to deny that the law is the problem. When they experience high costs, long wait times, difficulty in getting appointments, and poor service, they will clamor for more government funding and regulation. When they are denied treatment because it wasn’t approved by the death panel, their families will simply be told by the hospital staff, “sorry, but we did everything we could...”
When you hear the phrase, “sorry, but there is nothing else that can be done,” you will never know if the limitations are based on what the doctors and the facilities are capable of performing, or whether the limitations are based on some kind of quality of life formula created by the death panel.
It will take a lot more to get liberals to realize just how evil their dreams really are.
Bingo. Liberalism is cult.
It’s Bush’s fault.
Unions wanted single payer. They settled for Obamacare as an intermediate step. This is all predictable. Nobody is supposed to be satisfied with Obamacare, especially not the most staunch liberal constituencies who don't think it went far enough.
