America's Holocaust - Medical Regulation
If Partial-Birth Abortions are not a 'medical procedure' as many pro-death abortion apologists euphamistically claim, who commits them? Doctors? Do they bill for medical procedures? Who pays them? Insurance, the government, your/my taxes? Is it legal for doctors to perform non-medical procedures? Are they done in non-medical facilities? How old were the babies? Can the women or practitioners hide behind 'medical privacy' for non-medical procedures? What non-medical laws or regulations govern the acts? Are Haz-Mat warning placards required on the vehicles that transport the dead bodies? What's the regulation that requires reporting the hazardous bio-medical body parts? Are their records kept for public scrutiny?

Now the U.S. Owes $175+ Trillion Dollars! (25Sep17) Up daily since o'tax'n spend was elected!
"The American Republic will endure, until politicians realize they can bribe the people with their own money."
Click Here for videos, graphs, movie & U.S. National Debt totals.
3 years ago: The Debt ~ $125T+! Then Obama: Up $22T+ in only 3 years! $22T to $26T+ by 2015! Since November 2011 to January 2013 he has added $2 Trillion to the deficit! States' Unfunded: $3.2T+! (Dec10) From Jan'09 the deficit: $10.2T→$14.6T up $4.3T/42%! -- Federal unfunded liabilities total $84 trillion .. equal to 5.7 percent of the present value of all future GDP, which translates into about 31 percent of the long run federal revenue estimate,” the report states. “Thus federal revenues would have to rise immediately and permanently to 24.1 percent of GDP to cover the fiscal imbalance.” (source: http://dailycaller.com/2012/07/16/report-federal-unfunded-liabilities-total-84-trillion/)
Many Americans actually pay $1 out of ever $2 earned to some form of tax while ~50% of people pay no taxes! Do you pay your bills? The Fed takes $3 in and spends $5. Debt per citizen: $51,985 - Debt per taxpayer: $142,513! (13Dec12)
A trillion seconds pass in 31,688 years. At $1/sec it would take 41,194 years just to pay off o'tax'n spend's new Feb12-Feb13 added debt - 538,696 years to pay only the national debt or 4,404,632 years to settle the debt+unfunded liabilities!
"Over the last four years our national debt has risen nearly $6 trillion, and just last week the debt topped an astounding $16 trillion. To put that in perspective, $16 trillion is enough money to fund the US military, along with the military of every NATO country combined… for the next sixteen years! Government spending is projected to hit $3.8 trillion this year alone. Even after every tax dollar paid by Americans has been counted, the government will still overspend by another $1.13 trillion. Every single second of the day our government spends over $12,000. So in the time it takes you to read this article, roughly five minutes, our government has spent $3.6 million. It take four seconds for the government to spend what the average American earns in an entire year." (source: by Tim Phillips 17Sep12 at TownHall.com)

The U.S. Deficit in 2007 was $9,007,653,372,262.48
The federal government has accumulated more new debt -- $3.22 trillion ($3,220,103,625,307.29) — during the tenure of the 111th Congress than it did during the first 100 Congresses combined, according to official debt figures published by the U.S. Treasury."

It has been suggested that o'who?, the clown, and 'those who surround him' are not the bumbling fools they appear to be. Nor are they one of the 'Three Stooges' but rather are shrewd implementation/drivers and fellow-travelers of policies designed to disarm the citizenry & collapse the American economy. Why? o'nocchio's grandiose scheme to "fundamentally transform America" is more than simple campaign rhetoric as can be seen by his use of "enabling acts" to circumvent the Constitution of the United States.

Here is a truth enema for you
Millions of innocent men, women and children, since the introduction of Christianity, have been burnt, tortured, fined and imprisoned; yet we have not advanced one inch towards uniformity.
-Thomas Jefferson, Notes on Virginia, 1782

P.S.
Jefferson continued, "To make one half of the world fools and the other half hypocrites."
The quote, in full reads, "Millions of innocent men, women and children, since the introduction of Christianity, have been burnt, tortured, fined, imprisoned: yet we have not advanced one inch towards uniformity. What has been the effect of coercion? To make one half the world fools, and the other half hypocrites. To support roguery and error all over the earth. Let us reflect that it is inhabited by a thousand millions of people. That these profess probably a thousand different systems of religion. That ours is but one of that thousand. That if there be but one right, and ours that one, we should wish to see the 999 wandering sects gathered into the fold of truth. But against such a majority we cannot effect this by force. Reason and persuasion are the only practicable instruments. To make way for these, free inquiry must be indulged; and how can we wish others to indulge it while we refuse it ourselves. But every state, says an inquisitor, has established some religion. "No two, say I, have established the same". Is this a proof of the infallibility of establishments? Our sister states of Pennsylvania and New York, however, have long subsisted without any establishment at all." "..I doubt whether the people of this country would suffer an execution for heresy, or a three years imprisonment for not comprehending the mysteries of the trinity."
However, his latter referral to executions for heresy could be upon us if Islamic extremism grabs a foothold in the Americas as it is beginning to in Europe.
I believe he was referring to the establishment of 'state religion' a concept to which I do not subscribe. Nor do I accept all of Jefferson's ideas as gospel, for example:
.. "Comparing them by their faculties of memory, reason and imagination, it appears to me, that in memory they are equal to the whites; in reason much inferior, as I think one could scarcely be found capable of tracing and comprehending the investigations of Euclid; and that in imagination, they are dull, tasteless, and anomalous.
.. The Indians, with no advantages of this kind, will often carve figures on their pipes not destitute of design and merit. They will crayon out an animal, a plant, or a country, so as to prove the existence of a germ in their minds which only wants cultivation. They astonish you with strokes of the most sublime oratory; such as prove their reason and sentiment strong, their imagination glowing and elevated.
.. I advance it, therefore, as a suspicion only, that the blacks, whether originally a distinct race, or made distinct by time and circumstance, are inferior to the whites in the endowment both of body and mind."
You can find similar reasoning from A. Lincoln and other notable American figures. I tend to choose among those ideas in agreement with my sentimentalities thus the bias toward Traditional American Values, paleo-conservatism, and believing in our Republican Constitutional form of government, not a neo-socialist democratic view.
Thank you for the quote reference. I will add it to my quotes index for the edification of future visitors.
Here are a few fact about our current health care system.
ReplyDeleteAccording to the CDC 1.7 million Americans contract a hospital acquired infection each year. Betsy McCaughy former Lt Governor of NY and a fat right Republican thinks those numbers are extremely low.
According to the CDC 60 thousand Americans are killed each year by a hospital acquired infection. Betsy McCaughy former Lt Governor of NY and a fat right Republican thinks those numbers are extremely low.
The odds according to the CDC of contracting a hospital acquired infection are 1 in 20 . Betsy McCaughy former Lt Governor of NY and a far right Republican thinks those numbers are extremely low.
The leading cause of death and injury in the US in the US health care system.
Currently 1 in every 6 dollars spent in the US goes for health care and by 2020 it will be in in 4 dollars.
US Doctors are the highest paid doctors in the world.
Last year over 1 million Americans when off shore for health care.
American pay on average 7100 dollars per year for health care. The world average is about 1/3 that. Europeans pay less than half of what we do.
More Americans are killed each year my medical mistakes than all of our wars combined.
The medical industry is the only industry that that can screw up and still get paid and then get paid to fix the blunder.
US health care is ranked 37th in the world making it the worst in the industrialized world.
Robert, name the federal agency that oversees the actions of doctors and hospitals. Actually that is an unfair question because there is not federal agency that regulates our doctors and hospitals and you probably want it to remain that way in spite of the fact that we are have lost millions of Americans to this deadly and greedy health care system. Right?
Being that you do not want government regulated health care should we also do away with the FAA, NTSB, OSHA, USDA, FBI, Product Safety Administration, privatize the US military (the greatest military in the world which is government run)FEMA, National Weather Service, USGS, NOAA, ect.. ect...ect...?
Do you even care that our current health care system is the most deadly and most expensive in the world?
Do you even realize that the US economy will collapse when health care becomes 25% of our GDP?
You probably cannot even define socialism. Here is another fact. The countries that have the best health care at the best prices have government run health care.
Our health care system is good at one thing and one thing only and that is turning obscene profits and getting away with mass genocide.
Get a clue Robert. If you were truly a patriot you would stand up for the many millions of Americans who are ripped off, killed and maimed by this meat grinder we call American health care. How many more millions have to be killed and maimed before you wing nuts will wake up?
Robert you are such a bull shooter. I tried to vote twice by clearing my browser and it when I voted it said "cannot process". Why are you lying?
