Yes, I'm scared. Look at what BHO's primary health care advisor believes in.

You want scary, I am going start looking at those who are close to and advising ObamaCare. This is the first of more posts that will bring details on Ezekiel Emmanuel, Cass Sunstein, and Peter Singer. It's an old but valuable cliche that we judge people by the company they keep. These are the architects of ObamaCare. You be the judge on what is in store for us should we end up with the single-payer, rationed health care system intended for us by Obama and his dissimulators - no matter how they disguise their intentions.

Dr. Ezekiel J. Emanuel, Rahm's brother and a a noted bioethicist, is advising the Obama administration on health care reform. Here is some of his work as blogged in "The Proof Of Planned Health Care Rationing And Denial Of Care To Senior Citizens" which is truly a must-read!:

“When implemented, the Complete Lives system produces a priority curve on which individuals aged between roughly 15 and 40 years get the most substantial chance, whereas the youngest and oldest people get chances that are attenuatedThe Complete Lives system justifies preference to younger people because of priority to the worst-off rather than instrumental value.”

"Dr. Ezekiel Emanuel included a chart with his work (available here), which shows how he wants to allocate medical resources under a government plan:

When you’re very young, or when you start reaching your 50s and 60s, you start receiving less and less priority."

I'm 64 years old. I have one lung with COPD, the other lost to cancer, diabetes, 2 stents in my heart as part of coronary artery disease, various neuropathies, and more, all due to Agent Orange exposure while serving as a US Marine in Vietnam. You can see where Emanuel puts me for future medical care. And you wonder why I am scared?

We already have a great example of an active single-payer, now-rationing, government-run health care system. It's has $31 Trillion in un-funded debt, yes, $31 trillion!

Yes, I am scared!
