Under the Obama healthcare plan seniors are expendable. This isn't rumor, conjecture, opinion, or anything else, it is fact. A chief advisor to Obama is Dr. Ezekiel Emanuel, the brother of White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel. Unbelievably, he clearly implies that those who are lesser to society such as the elderly should not be fully treated. He essentially favors a eugenics approach to healthcare.
Some leaders in the House of Representatives are confirming reports that the healthcare bill promotes euthanasia. The bill calls for the recommendation of "palliative care and hospice" for the elderly (rather than treatment). The House healthcare bill proposes to decrease hospital visits by establishing a “medical home pilot program” for elderly and disabled Americans. These medical homes would dump Medicare patients at facilities that would not require a doctor, only nurse practitioners or physician assistants.
President Obama has given a clear signal on what to expect in his April 14, 2009 interview where he stated, "That’s where I think you just get into some very difficult moral issues. The chronically ill and those toward the end of their lives are accounting for potentially 80 percent of the total health- care bill out here."
Is this where we have arrived in America? The pure evil of the federal government acting as God, making decisions on who is worth medically treating and who dies? Seniors, and all Americans, need to speak up and speak up now before Congress passes this legislation detrimental to seniors and all Americans.
