  Rewriting Conservatives for Patients' Rights' Script

  We're certainly not running out of apologists for government run health care. Here's something to consider. Look at how well the Soviet Union worked. See how many Cubans have fled Castro's workers' paradise in Cuba. Read how the communist Chinese are abandoning state controlled economy for free market capitalism. It is a sad and sorry state of affairs that American education has brainwashed two generations of Americans into being ignorant of their country's history, economic success, and societal values. With recent historical evidence of the failure of state run economies as glaring examples, the notions propagated by fools and liars like Michael Moore have become common place talking points. Moore is a man from a working class background who has made MILLIONS through the free market economy, who claims with a straight face, that healthcare in Cuba, is superior to that in the U.S. The distraction about the cost of health insurance, is a ruse to ignore the evidence of rationed health care in Europe, Cuba, Canada, ad infinitum. The reality is that ANY person who goes into a hospital WILL BE CARED FOR. That just doesn't happen when waiting lists, and rationing is placed in the hands of bureaucrats. A society that uses semantics to disguise the killing of its most innocent citizens as a "right" of another person, has crossed the Rubicon. Euthanizing the elderly or denying treatment, as a utilitarian cost-cutting method, is how your government will solve not only the "health care issue", but will make Social Security solvent. Wake up folks. You've bought into a lunacy that has nothing but tragic endings for each of us. The cost of health insurance pales in comparison to the cost of stupidity.
