Medicare chief rations care, but not for himself

  Rationing is the preferred method of reducing the cost of health care. It must be done, according to the Obama administration (Emanuel, Berwick, Obama) because health care costs most at the beginning and end of life. 
 Thus your life is evaluated on a $numerical basis, and if your needs exceed that $$ amount, you are denied care. 
  While on vacation, I met a nurse from Ireland. She had been trained 25 years ago as a nurse under the classic system of belief that people are human beings who needed to be treated with care; she said the Irish system is monstrous, a nightmare. 
  Everything you've read in the British online papers about patients lying in their urine and feces, untended for days, she said, is true. 
  She had seen it with her own eyes. Very few of the doctors and nurses even speak English anymore, because they are imported from places like Pakistan. She and her family were "allowed" to purchase private health care, and she never would put her family in the care of government health care, into which the government has poured money without results.
  Another family I met was Canadian. When I asked about their health care, he shook his head and said "Long, long waits for anything." As the special by John Stossel revealed, you can get a MRI for your pet the next day, but for YOU, a human, it might be a year to wait:

  The Canadian said, "It's certainly not what you Americans think it is."

  The Irish nurse said, "Your president has ruined your health care. It will never be the same."

  And now we have the report that Berwick, the man Obama sneaked in without hearings to head the Medicare program, does not even put himself under the same health care program you and I will be placed under in a few years. 

  Even if you have union health care coverage, you have to know that will be going by the wayside, as the state/company/school system squeezes and the White House increases demands for free coverage for various procedures, without even going through Congress or the courts or the health care system. Just by themselves:

The White House on Wednesday issued new rules requiring health insurance companies to provide free coverage for dozens of screenings, laboratory tests and other types of preventive care," with the snap of the fingers, the waving of a supposed magic wand Obama required insurance companies to provide free coverage for a bunch of different kinds of screenings and laboratory tests and other types of preventive care.  That's the first sentence.  So Obama just forced private sector business, industry, to give away a hunk of their business for free, to give it away.  

But back to Berwick over at Pajamas Media:

CMS isn’t some Beltway backwater with a few clerks processing Medicare and Medicaid claims. It’s a gigantic bureaucracy with thousands of employees, a budget larger than the Pentagon’s, and the authority to dictate treatment standards for the nation’s hospitals, nursing homes, and clinical laboratories. It also administers policies that directly affect how many physicians are available to provide medical treatment for you and your family. Moreover, Berwick isn’t just another political hack or Ivy League gasbag. He’s an experienced, sophisticated administrator who knows how to get what he wants. And what he wants for Medicare, Medicaid, and eventually the entire U.S. health care system is rationing.

And then there's this:

Before Obama picked him to be our new Medicare czar, Berwick was the chief executive officer of an outfit he founded called the Institute for Health Care Improvement (IHI). IHI bills itself as a nonprofit charity, but it seems to do an awful lot of work on behalf of for-profit entities. As CEO of this enterprise, Dr. Berwick earned a cool $2.3 million in 2008. But, more to the point, IHI will provide him with private health care coverage during his declining years: “The Institute created a postretirement health benefit plan for its chief executive officer (CEO). It provides the CEO and his spouse medical insurance from retirement until death.” 

  Of course, Congress and the president will never be subjected to government health care, at least like ours. Theirs is 24/7 for life. Even as Britain moves toward a freer health care system resembling our current system, we move toward their broken diseased model.
  Read it all. It's quite enlightening. 
  This is why we must win in NOvember. This is why this health care bill must be defunded.
  Eagles up, patriots.
