Let the Elderly Eat Pabulum « NewsReal Blog: "First it looked like the Obama administration was finally going to listen to the American people and drop the public health insurance option. Then, under pressure from the Left, the administration insisted that the recent comments to that effect by its Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius had been misinterpreted. Failed presidential hopeful and former Democratic Party chairman Howard Dean, for example, said that without the public option there can be no health care reform. (Dean, by the way, supports a $2 trillion tax hike for social programs.) The Congressional Black Caucus, which never met a Big-Government program it didn’t love, said much the same thing in opposition to dropping public health insurance.
But whether we end up with a government-run health insurance plan or some hybrid involving a not-for-profit health co-op, the result will be the same — rationed care, Canadian-style, that denies top-quality care to the elderly in order to save money for the more “productive” members of society."
