SOCIALIZED HEALTH CARE IS NOT THE ANSWER

Nationalized Health Care Kills People

Judge refuses request to end baby boy's treatment

And even tries to kill children. Case in point: a group of doctors in London want to pull the plug on an 18-month old infant. Yes, the baby is disabled, but not in a vegetative state. The unstated problem here is the fact that with the socialized medicine structure such as the one in Great Britain, doctors get paid by the government, and certainly not enough to actually pay for the continuing treatment someone severely disabled requires. So, unplug and save some money, it's that simple. Fortunately, in this instance, a judge disagreed.
From Tammy Bruce.

That is precisely why I am against socialized health care. Eventually, it becomes too economically burdensome for the government and hence, the over riding factor as to whether you get to live or not becomes economic. I don't want the government deciding if I should live or not. Which brings up a good question. For those who were against keeping Terry Schiavo alive used this exact argument. It was no business of the government. And they were wrong to try and intervene on this private matter. I have a feeling that many of those same people would believe that this disabled infant should be put to rest, but that sure the hell blows their argument out of the water that the family should decide.
