Title: No treatment for smokers
Post by: Gina on May 04, 2012, 02:35:18 PM
And the libs want us to have what the UK has right?

Quote
More than half of doctors across the UK have backed controversial measures to withhold treatment to smokers and the obese.

According to a new survey around 54 per cent of those who took part said the NHS should have the right to deny non-emergency treatments to those who fail to lose weight or kick their smoking habits.

I had a dentist that told me that he would not clean my teeth again unless I quit smoking. After he finished, I told him that he would never see me again.

I have no doubt that Obama and many of the Democrats want to limit medical care, and this is just an excuse to do it. Death panels are alive and well under Obamacare.

Yet study after study have shown that the majority of smokers are poor people..  Why does the left hate poor people?

I know of a couple case of VA Dr.'s refusing to perform non life threatening surgeries until the people quit smoking.

The obamacare refusal to treat smokers will most likely face little arguments but the fat people refusal will be fought tooth and nail.

Wow, I love the image you created of death panels being alive and well. Something quite Mary Shelleyish about that.

Being an old fart, any intrusion into the limitation of my health care is going to get my bowels in an uproar.

And so the revolution has come full circle:

The leftists demand the power to control all things healthcare related and we demand they leave us alone to live our lives.

They lie, berate and cajole their way into total power and then leave people alone to die.
