Let them Eat Cake!

Back in May of last year Senator Ted Kennedy received the diagnose that he had brain cancer and that he would have live six months to live! I can imagine how Senator Kennedy may have felt now that he was given would seems to be a death warrant, to his life.

On the whole the average joe might feel sorry for himself realizing he had very little time left. But not Senator Kennedy and he eventuality decided that the first order of business was to assembly elite group of Doctors to check him out and they all told him that his condition was terminal.

Well all these worldwide private Docs given this one man, a senator, and a very wealthy man the grim news of “Well guy your going to kick the bucket!” Now anybody would do that if having the money and the resources. I wouldn't blame him, I would do the same thing.

Now enter Barbara Wagner, who was recently notified that her oncologist-prescribed medication that would slow the growth of her cancer and that it would not be covered by the Oregon Health Plan; the plan, however, she was informed, would cover doctor-assisted suicide should she wish to kill herself.

So what would Ted Kennedy say if the Doctors had decided not to help Senator Kennedy in his quest to be cure? Hell no! would most likely come from his lips.

We can understand now many consider the current health care measure as rationing and we wonder what the Kennedy would say if the State told them that the Senator was to far gone to save and that they would be willing to counsel the Senator on the best means to kill himself? The fact that rationing is in our future is something the Democrats refuse to address, when you have 300 million people rationing become extremely necessary.


There is of course, the belief that they, the Liberal progressives elites, would not be force to have the same rationing care that the rest of us would have to live with in a single payer plan. No matter what these people do not believe they would have to go through the same care as the rest of us slobs, the average folks, the fly over people would be force to have!

This of course is the equivalent to saying what Marie Antoinette said prior to the french revolution “let them eat cake” Well in this case the upper crust would tell us that we can get the ration Medical care while they get the upper crust private care!

Why should Barbra Wagner life be less important then Ted Kennedy? Certainly Health care reform is needed, but not socialized.

What we are seeing now is the division of Health care and not a equality of it! The Kennedys of this world will always get better service than the regular people of this country, does that make it right? No, but sadly, this health care measures we see isn’t going to change anything and will make it worst.
