Re: Obama Care

Everyone, especially those with aging parents may want to read about Obama's latest appointee (not only a recess appointment, but not even a hearing)

Morning Bell: The Rationer-in-Chief | The Foundry: Conservative Policy News.

$ 49K to extend a life one year, just to put into perspective a single cancer treatment costs approximately $ 25K.

This guy is supported by the American Association of Homes and Services for the Aging, the AMA and others in the healthcare industry....because he's going to limit their costs and help them reach greater profitability.

Berwick -- a pediatrician, Harvard University professor and leader of a health care nonprofit organization -- told an interviewer last year, "The decision is not whether or not we will ration care - the decision is whether we will ration with our eyes open. And right now, we are doing it blindly."
