Hillary Clinton: Unhealthy Czar
2008-06-02 19:52:00 There?s talk of Obama giving Hillary the green light to socialize American medicine if she?ll walk away from the primaries. Melanie Phillips gives us a good example of why the renewed specter of socialized medicine should worry us: To the Labour Party, the National Health Service is the talismanic proof of its own moral superiority.

Ted Kennedy?s Cancer Treatment Under Socialized Medicine
2008-05-22 13:21:00 This article isn't written with disrespect to Ted Kennedy or his current situation, but to illustrate the difference between the system we have now, and the system he, Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton advocate. It's true that not everyone has access to the same treatment Kennedy received, but that would not change under government run health care.

Socialized Medicine in America: Massachusetts Shows Us How It Will Fail He
2008-03-17 20:11:00 Remember when I wrote this: As the state of Massachusetts has shown, along with Great Britain and Canada, socialized health care generally runs a higher cost than is initially expected. In order to meet the financial goals, the quality of care offered to the patient is compromised. If either Democrat candidate wins the 2008 election and enacts a universal health care program in America, there is no reason to doubt that we?ll face similar results here. Well…I hate to say I told you so, but, I told you so: Cambridge Health Alliance, a key part of the Boston area’s healthcare network, is facing a potentially “catastrophic” loss this year and is looking to eliminate up to 300 jobs, or about 9 percent of its workforce, in an effort to stabilize finances. more stories like this The alliance, which includes Cambridge Hospital, Somerville Hospital, and Whidden Hospital in Everett, says it is being hit hard by the state’s new healthcare reform law, which has lef...

Swedish Socialized Medicine Can't Cure Liza Minnelli
2007-12-14 07:01:00 Not a week goes by where I do not get one visitor to this blog proclaiming how grand Universal Healthcare is. Moreover, I am always told by liberals that Scandinavian countries like Sweden have medicine that is far superior to American medicine. What these idiots fail to recognize is that everyone who has a choice between Universal Healthcare and American medicine choose American...

Throngs Of Brits: Dump Liberalism and Socialized Healthcare
2007-10-29 18:17:00 HillaryCare, Sicko, Micky Mouse Moore and George Soros. What do these have in common? Brain spasms. Others that have the collective mindset as the aforementioned are equally deficient in the areas of common sense and the wherewithal to check their surroundings. And, being so worried about World Opinion as they are, they are guilty of not paying attention to world opinion except where it suits their own frantic desires of emotionalism.HT to MM for the lead-in here.Times OnLine UK: Quack Michael Moore has mad view of the NHS...Unfortunately Sicko is a dishonest film. That is not only my opinion. It is the opinion of Professor Lord Robert Winston, the consultant and advocate of the NHS. When asked on BBC Radio 4 whether he recognised the NHS as portrayed in this film, Winston replied: ?No, I didn?t. Most of it was filmed at my hospital [the Hammersmith in west London], which is a very good hospital but doesn?t represent what the NHS is like.?...None of these problems mean we sh...

SCHIP: The S is for Socialized Medicine

Daily Kos?Well we don?t have to worry about these far, far lefties ever looking into the mirror. Like most social vampires, they cast no reflection!? ? Faultline USAHere?s an excerpt of ABC?s blather that passes for journalism these days.. . .Gathering on the White House lawn and the steps of Congress, the throngs were joined by children who pulled red wagons filled with over a million petitions, urging Congress to expand health insurance coverage for children.Yet, it appears that the effort may be in vain after Bush vetoed a bill on Wednesday that would have renewed and expanded SCHIP. . .Health policy experts now say low and moderate income families like the Taylors will be hit the hardest if the veto stands, and individuals fear the social and financial consequences.Congress has already passed legislation which would reauthorize and expand the program by adding...

As Democrats Push Socialized Medicine, WalMart Supplies $4 Prescription Dru
2007-09-27 18:19:00 This obsession with Big Government for the sake of Big Government has gone out of control. Even though liberals know that lowering taxes and limited government have numerous economic benefits, including increased government revenue, Democrats are still locked into the mindset that they need to raise taxes and increase the size of government. It just makes them feel better about themselves.Now, as the Democratic Presidential candidates hash out their destructive socialized medical plans, the private sector is providing prescription drugs for cheaper prices than a Big Mac at McDonalds. WalMart, in fact, has just announced that it will be expanding its $4 prescription generic drugs by 10%. Laughably, WalMart apologized for only being able to provided two prescription birth control drugs and one fertility drug for $9. Wow, they?re really breaking the America people?s banks with those prices. I?m sorry, if someone cannot afford a $9 pill once a month to prevent me from having to pa...
