The Choice in Medicine

     There is a flaw in the strategy of winning a political battle simply by defeating "Obamacare".  What will it be replaced with?  Will it just go back to semi-socialized medicine, as it was before?

Philosophically, there are only two stable (and opposite) systems.  Government Health Care is one--which America is hurtling towards today.  And, the other is Capitalist Medicine.

A country has to choose.  To try to have parts of both will send it down the slippery slope that defaults in Government Health Care.

Government Health Care is not free medicine for life.  It is government deciding when and how you will die.  With the reality of limited medical supplies, Government Health Care is death panel murder.

Capitalist Medicine, on the other hand, is medical freedom, individual self-empowerment, and free market opportunity to work in the field of medicine if that is one's aspiration.

The issue of the Rights of doctors and medical field workers is evaded way too often.  Do the quick-kill mentalities of those who want welfare shots, IVs and blood draws, even if it destroys America, justify the destruction of the careers of these noble professionals?
