I’m not angry that a little boy lost his life, but I am sad. I’m not angry that a country with socialized health care would let a little boy die either. What does make me angry is that this country, with socialized health care, forced this little boy to die, even though all the parents wanted was to take their child out of that country, where just maybe something could be done for him. In a world filled with outrage over the smallest indiscretion, why didn’t Alfie’s life matter?

For all you folks who scream for government health care, all you baby boomers who have now begun to become a drain on a system more than twenty trillion under water, this is what death panels look like. Maybe it will have a very pleasant name, but but the goal will be to choose who lives and who dies. For every high profile case that we hear about, I wonder how many die there, without fanfare, chewed up by a heartless system? I believe the number would be breathtaking. Every case is someone deemed unfit to live.

Keep your free healthcare. The price is too high.
