The Government Will Choose Your Treatment
October 16, 2009 | 3 Comments
This is a very brief follow-up to our post yesterday about the talking points training manual the Congressional Progressive Caucus Foundation published and distributed to their supporters of socialist medicine.
The very bottom of one of the graphics we posted warrants more attention because of who wrote this book:
“Helping your doctor choose the most effective treatment for you”?? Isn’t that what the the government did in Tuskegee?
This wasn’t just written by a fringe group. It was published by the very same people writing the legislation the Congress won’t read before voting on:
….the Campaign for America’s Future, HCAN, Media Matters, Third Way and others, we have created a one-stop messaging resource to help progressives understand and talk about healthcare reform.
Either this is what they really want, or someone needs to forward this to the White House snitch email, because the Socialist-Progressive base is spreading lies.
People are rightfully angry about insurance company bureaucrats making health care decisions, but it is insanity to think the government will be any better. At least when an insurance company screws you, you can sue. When the feds screw you, you stay that way without recourse.
Enjoy your change America!
