Wagner Reality
So this is the health care plan u want?
government-run health care.
After weeks of bad news, things turned Barbara Wagner’s way this week.
Last month her lung cancer, in remission for about two years, was back. After her oncologist prescribed a cancer drug that could slow the cancer growth and extend her life, Wagner was notified that the Oregon Health Plan wouldn’t cover it.
It would cover comfort and care, including, if she chose, doctor-assisted suicide.
A woman from Canada who was in her mid-seventies at the time said that she had moved to America so that she could get her cancer treated at an American hospital because in Canada she was told that she was too old to be treated
Can you imagine what it would feel like to have your doctor tell you you’re too old to be worth fixing? Or having a government bureaucrat tell you that they won’t pay to fight the illness that’s killing you but they will pay for you to kill yourself?
That’s the reality of government-run health care.
Americans that want government health care think that they will be getting the same quality treatment we have today.
They are not figuring out that after a couple of years when doctors salaries are dropped and pharmaceutical companies have no incentive to develop new medicine, their health care will be like any other run of the mill European country.Europeans that need cutting edge medicine come to the U.S. their safety net!
