Obama's culture of death

  The future indeed looks grim for the health of baby boomers, as Obama has recess appointed yet another rationer of health care for the elderly, this time in charge of Social Security. Weekly Standard:

Aaron, a recent Obama nominee, has expressed similar views. He wrote a piece earlier this year called, “The Independent Payment Advisory Board — Congress's ‘Good Deed.’” The grisly IPAB, one of the most underreported of Obamacare’s myriad of liberty-sapping features, would have the power to cut Medicare spending each year — if Obamacare isn’t repealed first. The dictates of its 15 unelected members would effectively become law. In fact, Congress couldn’t even overturn the IPAB’s decrees with a majority vote in each house and the President’s signature. 

Obama has since doubled-down on the IPAB, seeking to grant it even more power to cut Medicare spending than Obamacare would grant it. To be clear, this is in addition to the nearly $1 trillion that the Congressional Budget Office says would be siphoned out of Medicare and spent on Obamacare during the overhaul’s real first decade (2014 to 2023). 

  Aaron, who wrote a book called The Painful Prescription, thinks that, instead of treatment, people over 55 should just die.
  Like Berwick, Aaron is enamored with the decaying British medical system:

“The key to the British system, they contend, lies not in regulation but in a different attitude toward medicine, mortality and the scarcity of resources.

  That new attitude means you let people die instead of treating them. The Weekly Standard has the quotes.
  Berwick also believes rationing is an acceptable course of action, which is in keeping with Obama's 100% pro abortion voting record.
  One is a choice.
  Two is a pattern.
  Can you say culture of death?
