“Scientific consensus” is only valid when it proves what Left-wing extremists want to prove.

And who is to say that this was not part of the plan all along?

So besides purposely destroying the country which is why this thing exists in the first place, Obama can now also take comfort in the fact that “The citizens of the great Satan USA” will be dying earlier as well. Ahhhh the joys of having a foreign enemy agent as POTUS. Good going liberals: Why burn yourself when you can have someone else do it not only for you but for everyone else as well.

And this is what John McCain and the Republicans are fighting for!?

Well, Nikita Khruschev did say that's how America will be destroyed, from within.

And if you are an honest liberal (oxymoron I know), isn’t this good news? Look at all the “good” dying early accomplishes;

- The unemployment numbers go down
- Less drain on the Government’s Social Security and and Medicare resources
- Less exhaling of that poison, CO2
- More assets accruing to it’s true owner, the State, via estate taxes
- And so much more!

Think of the savings in pension costs and Medicare payments if all these old people (who may now have life expectancies reaching some thirty-forty years into the future) suddenly start dying at a much earlier age, much like they did in 1939, when Social Security had just been instituted. Then there was little possibility they would ever collect on SS benefits for more than a year or two, on average.

The death panels will be mobilized with all deliberate haste.

Dying earlier is part of the plan. That’s a major step in dealing with the baby boom generation, and then on into the future. Dead people are “a savings”.

—Dying earlier is part of the plan.—

Much easier is to release a pandemic
that would be relatively harmless to the young,
and lethal to the old.

Some type of modified flu would do it
Short term crash in the hospital systems would result

RE: Americans ‘will die earlier’ due to Obamacare

Maybe that’s the plan all along. Imagine how muc money that will save in terms of health care and social security payouts...

I’ll wager it gets a higher number than 19% if the poll was taken nation wide.

Some are honestly wondering if physicians will be available when they are “Seniors” due to the expected attrition rate of currently practicing MD’s

“more than nine in 10 believing that there could be major negative impacts such as a drop in quality care. A shocking 19 percent believe Americans will die earlier.”

How on earth are 70% of the respondents to dumb to think the quality of care degradation will not lead to earlier deaths? Not to worry tho, the benefit is that it will help save SSIP!
