NAZI HEALTHCARE AGENDA RISING IN
AMERICA
Erle Frayne D. Argonza
It
is night time as I write this note. The easterly winds have been blowing,
seemingly reminding us here of the coming hot days. While this happens, winter
has been bringing storms in America, storms that accompanied the torpedoing of
the new health bill, the torpedo ‘storm troopers’ being the neo-fascistic ‘Tea
Party’ of the Republican Party.
The
world is watching the unfolding events in America concerning health care.
This analyst is among those keenly interested, as the matter of making health
care accessible to everyone in my own country has been a mind-boggling
challenge for the development experts. We have been scouting around for models
of health care accessibility, and the concept of ‘universal healthcare’ that
some experts are espousing in the USA is worth examining.
A
question that arises from the unfolding events is this: is health care headed
for a new summer in America,
or is it moving towards a long winter? The enthused readers can go ahead and
choose to discuss the matter, and generate their own opinions about it.
My
own reflection about the matter makes me conclude preliminarily that America’s health care is heading towards a
parallelism with the Nazi health care of the Hitler’s heydays in Germany. Nazi
policy in health means a dichotomous delivery of access to health: make those
strongest physically and mentally have access to state-sponsored health care,
while close the access to those who are the weakest.
To
reduce the cost of sustaining a state-sponsored health care program, eliminate
those who are the weakest. Round up those with lingering ailments, the lame and
blind, the ‘subhuman’ or below-normal intelligence, and so on, line them up on
the wall and machine gun them to death.
My
own reading of the events in America
makes me see, among other things, the increasing closure of health care to the
impoverished families and individuals there. Poverty now exceeds 40 Millions of
Americans, with the Blacks and Latinos comprising the greatest percentage of
ethnicities below poverty line.
It
seems, as of now, that no one single political force has a monopoly of Nazi-type
health policies there. True, the fascist wing of the Republicans, coming under
the names of ‘Tea Party’ and ‘neo-conservatives’, have deep, elitist,
condescending scorn for poor folks and colored peoples who are receiving too
much state attention via welfare subsidies for health. But that is belaboring
the obvious.
There
are forces within the Democrat Party—masquerading in the mantle of liberalism—who
would have none of the drift of America
towards a Welfare State akin to what befell Europe.
They know that America’s
coffers don’t cough up enough funds for subsidies, so what they do is pretend
to be pro-people by voting for bills that allocate greater state subsidies for
health care.
Such
forces are making use of political parties as Trojan Horses to wage a sadistic
attack against the poor people of America. They will brook no
quarters in excluding the poorer folks, including immigrants, from mainstream
health care, and they commit the heinous act through rigmaroles of legislative
fiats.
While
such new Nazis, and real Nazis to stress the point, fiddle their superficial policy
agenda and do backroom maneuvers that concern health care, hundreds of
thousands of poor folks die yearly of every kind of ailment there. By
dilly-dallying on the galvanization of the ‘universal health care’ idea alone,
numerous dying folks are already being sacrificed in the altar of Evil there.
Let
us all watch closely the events concerning health care, and see what happens
after another year will elapse. If it will be so easy to forecast that more
Americans are being kept out of the health care circuits, then rest assured a
Nazi killer agenda is in place to satisfy the sadistic lust for blood by
demoniacs in the Establishment.
That
being so, the rest of the world, more so the emerging markets, will add another
reason to their rising list of rationales for ignoring America as a recognized leading
state by showing leadership through example. The year 2012 will be a clear
turning point, when nations will decide whether there is still an iota of
leadership that America
can demonstrate.
Health
is wealth, and a nation that closes health care access to its people is a
nation without soul and conscience. Other nations should move on in life
without that soul-less state to reckon with.

This piece is a republication. While healthcare finally made it to legislation in the USA, fascistic forces are stonewalling and sabotaging implementation, thus leading to government shutdown. Tragic!
