You still need a prescription.

You thanked him 10 freepen times.

You need a prescription to get those antibiotics though.

[HangnJudge]

You still need a prescription.

Hmmm...

1/5 Vodka
100mg Valium
160mg Oxycontin
Plastic Bag

+/- 200mg Seconol,

Yup, that's the ticket

All you need to know about "FREE" healthcare can be found in the Tuskegee experiments.

The Tuskegee syphilis experiment[1] (also known as the Tuskegee syphilis study or Public Health Service syphilis study) was an infamous clinical study conducted between 1932 and 1972 in Tuskegee, Alabama by the U.S. Public Health Service to study the natural progression of untreated syphilis in poor, rural black men who thought they were receiving free health care from the U.S. government.[1]

Sure, I trust the U.S. government. NOT.

He was at the Doctor already.
What permission does He/She need?
I assume the Precert was for the Z-pak as it can be pricey

BTW, I'm generally in favor of Pharmacist Prescriptions for Antibiotics

Again, couldn’t agree more.

I shouted about the cultural and legislative impacts of that case then and continue to do so today.

Whatever the left supports, multiply it by ten million.

One Terri case is a national interest, a cause.

Ten million is NAZI Germany, and now, their academic heirs, Socialist England, and soon, the USSA.

Incidentally, this is why I will never support Jeb Bush. He had the ability and the stage to make a case for life out of Terri Schiavo’s case. But he rolled over, either because he doesn’t really believe in the sanctity of human life or because he was looking ahead to future political races and just wanted to wash his hands of the matter, not unlike Pontius Pilate.

nice cartoon.
The Death Panels are in England and are coming here soon.
It would be even more efficient to put the defective people that Mr. Obama has selected, in camps.

And let us not forget (and pound into the brain of every liberal we met), as Illinois state senator, Obama took the podium not once, not twice, but three times not to argue for mere abortion, but in ardent support of legislation that would force doctors to starve to death babies that survived an abortion.

That’s right. In his view of the state, babies that survive a failed attempt at an abortion should be put on a gurney and wheeled into a closet until they die.

Another point argued by Goodman in “Lives at Risk” is that Socialist medicine, at best, provides good care but horrible cure for patients.

That is, the government has a vested interest in hiring tens of thousands of citizens to work for the government-run healthcare system to deliver meals and blankets and aspirin, etc. (that is, to “care” for the sick). This is inexpensive and helps the employment rate without really doing too much.

Where socialist medicine fails is in the cure department. Curing people of disease is costly, and a government must make the fiscal decision of whether the outlay will result in a net financial loss to the system or a financial gain if the patient survives and can return to the work force long enough to repay the outlay.

This story proves that socialist is also failing miserably in the “care” department.

One other point is that eugenics has long been part of the utopian goal of leftists/progressives/communists/socialists/statists (whatever you want to call those to the left.

Controlling healthcare (just listen to the word, it sounds like they are caring) is the ultimate Orwellian means of culling the population and creating a citizenry (sheep farm) of only those the State deems worthy of serving them.

Geez...”the pathway”...how our beautiful language can be used for utter evil.

Note also that these babies are put on the “pathway” (again, Orwellian Newspeak for an adventure “forward” to some better place) BY THEIR PARENTS.

Parents can’t be bothered with what they consider “imperfect” babies.

Hell, in a world of designer babies, selective abortion, genetic matching before fertilization, and jackasses like Madonna going to Africa to buy a baby like a handbag, should we be surprised that a “parent” who learns their child is “imperfect” (”Damn, se doesn’t have blue eyes. Well, that’s too bad for her.”) babies that they would elect to allow their child to die a horrid death of starvation and dehyhdration?
