Dems pushing British-style socialized medicine even as Cousin Obamacare continues to collapse
The National Sentinel ^ | 3/9/19 | Jon Dougherty

The future of American health care is playing out over at our cousin’s place across the Atlantic — Great Britain — if anyone cares to take the time to look. And you should, because if any of the 2020 Democratic presidential candidates win the White House and get their way in Congress, we’ll end up a British-style healthcare system.

It’s a system that has been failing for years but is now near collapse.

The vaunted National Health Service, which is full-on socialized medicine — “Medicare for All” is what it will be called in the U.S. — has hit an 11-year low in patient satisfaction scores. Patients are dying waiting for days for care in corridors. On, and wait times are also at historically high levels.

How could this be? Socialized medicine is the end-all, be-all of healthcare. It doesn’t just rival a free-market system, it is vastly superior, we are told by Democrats and Leftists throughout our political system.

Imagine being a Trump voter in a skilled care unit? What could possibly go wrong?

Oh my Good Lord. Go to You Tube and find stories about the British NHS and from what these Limeys say it’s the greatest, most grand thing on Earth and it’s all FREE! and “Oh I say, you Yanks, you have a horrible system of health care where greedy doctors and insurance companies only want to get rich off sick people’’.

It has nothing to do with health or care. It is the premier control device of modern history. Success or failure is not judged by health outcomes but by subjugation.

That’s precisely why they are pushing it. Change Obamacare to something else before Obamacare implodes. The ole bait n switch.

I’m sure what ever lamebrained policy they will come up with, the next thin they will do is exempt themselves from it like they did for Obamacare.

Your Medicare and Social Security will be rationed via your Social Credit points.
