Hillary Wants You Dead

ARE YOU one of the 80 million baby boomers born between 1946 and 1965? If so, Hillary Clinton wants you dead.

That, at least, appears to be the intent of her new plan for universal health care. In it, Hillary promises health coverage for all, yet vows to slash medical spending in America by $120 billion per year.

The problem is that health care costs money. Cutting spending means cutting care. Just like her old plan from 1993, Hillary’s new plan will cut costs by rationing health care. Under its guidelines, Hillary’s health commissars can and will deny patients any treatment they deem “unnecessary”.

Hillary’s cutbacks will hurt the elderly most. As the heaviest users of health care, they will get the most denials. Hardest hit of all will be the baby boomers, now approaching retirement age.

The first baby boomer applied for Social Security retirement benefits on October 15, 2007. Over the next 20 years, 80 million more will apply. Their huge numbers are expected to bankrupt the system.

“I fear that we may have already committed more physical resources to the baby boom generation in its retirement years than our economy has the capacity to deliver,” worried Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan, speaking before the Senate Budget Committee on April 21, 2005. Regarding Social Security and Medicare, Greenspan said, “I do not see how we can avoid significant curtailment of the benefits currently promised.”

Greenspan was only saying aloud what elite policymakers had been whispering for years. There were simply too many baby boomers. Uncle Sam could not provide for them. Medical rationing seemed the only solution; withhold care from aging baby boomers and just let them die.

Hillary’s 1993 health plan reflected this sort of thinking. It would have created a National Health Board with power to decide who would get treatment and who would not. The Board would wield life-and-death power over every American.

Congress rejected Hillary’s plan, but leftwing billionaire George Soros kept it alive. A long-time political ally of Hillary, Soros formulated a plan for implementing Hillarycare through the private sector. He called it the Project on Death in America.

Soros announced his new project in a November 30, 1994 speech at New York’s Columbia Presbyterian Medical Center. “Can we afford to care for the dying properly?” he asked. Yes we can, Soros declared, but only by avoiding the expense of “aggressive, life-prolonging interventions” and instead providing “palliative” care for the elderly and gravely ill.

“Palliative care” means keeping patients comfortable while they die, but making no attempt to save their lives.

Over the next ten years, Soros’ Open Society Institute and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation sunk $200 million into the Project on Death in America.

Its operations were shrouded in a fog of euphemism and doubletalk. Officially, the Project on Death promoted palliative care, but opposed such extreme measures as euthanasia and physician-assisted suicide. Program director Kathleen Foley even edited a book titled, The Case Against Assisted Suicide.

However, Ione Whitlock, chief research associate for the pro-life group Lifetree, charges that Foley’s opposition to assisted suicide is merely tactical. For instance, on January 20, 2005, Foley told the British House of Lords that, while she did not think it was “economically feasible or socially or politically appropriate” to legalize assisted suicide at the moment, it might be appropriate in “10, 20 or 30 years”.

“She opposes PAS [physician-assisted suicide] not because it is inherently wrong, but because this is not the right time to discuss it,” Miss Whitlock concludes.

The Project on Death stopped giving grants in 2003, but the damage was done. Project alumni have thoroughly infiltrated the medical profession. Their influence touches every community.

Already the killing has begun. Patients receive “palliative care” instead of real care. Many succumb to forced starvation, dehydration and even lethal injection in hospitals, hospices and nursing homes.

On September 11, 2005, after Hurricane Katrina, rescuers discovered 45 bodies at the Memorial Medical Center in New Orleans. For reasons which remain unclear, hospital staff had decided to carry out “mercy killings.” At least nine patients, and maybe more, died from lethal doses of morphine and midazolam.

Medical authorities and major media largely sympathized with the killers. All criminal charges against them were dropped in August 2007.

The incident revealed a chilling fact known to few Americans; doctors today may kill their patients and get away with it.

A death cult is stalking America. For this we have Hillary Clinton and George Soros to thank.
