Excellent post. Not enough US citizens will hear it, however, or believe it, even if they have the attention span to listen to more than 30 seconds. We have to find a way to get the message out.

Comment on What to Expect Under the Reign of Berwick by LearnedMole

I’ve just begun reading Dr. Berwick’s book “New Rules,” which is a frightening read. He promotes socialist ideology, and appears proud of it. He describes “Physician hegemony” and defines ‘quality’ as “Matching the work to the need” (ie: from each according to his ability, to each according to his need). This is scary. His book says that the U.S. “lacks sufficient redistributive impulse” to “correct deficiencies” and proposes regulative solutions to that “problem”.

Fasten your seatbelt, this is going to be an uncomfortable ride…….

My Mother would be alive today if it were not for the British National Healthcare System. She had severe angina for a full 18 months before the NHS could even schedule a Cardiac appointment and before she reached that date, she had a massive heart attack. I had been calling and calling, trying to get her to go to a private doctor and saying that we would happily pay for her treatment, but she insisted that if it the chest and arm pain were important, “surely the doctors would know that and get her the correct treatment?” When I flew over to meet with her doctor in England, he took me aside and said, that once a patient reached 60, under the National Health System, he was severely limited by what treatment and speciality appointments he could provide…….and that the waiting lists were extremely long, with many patients, like my Mother, dying before ever being seen. She was 63 years old and simply needed an angioplasty to be healthy for another 20 years. This is what Obama envisions for America……and I, for one, don’t want it!!!

Aw, so sad. Physicians are stamping their feet since the poor might actually be able to afford basic health care. What a crime. What if they force you to assist gay patients! Oh no!

Also, I love that little passive-aggressive dig you make about “barring regime change.”
