Political Medicine and Life Expectancy

Posted on by
Do we have classic socialized medicine in the United States?

Do we have national healthcare inspired by European democratic socialism? What we have is political medicine.

With socialism , goods and services are rationed by something other than price. Who gets what or how much in terms of healthcare is determined by political power. Those with little or no political power have get very little to none in terms of healthcare.


 

 

How does ObamaCare kill ? It turns doctors into clerks and patients into commodities. Insurance plans are actually life management plans and have no characteristics of genuine insurance. Under Obama Care , preventive healthcare comes down to starting patients with anointed maladies on big pharma life extending prescriptions drugs.
Doctors no longer talk to patients about genuine preventive measures like losing weight. A doctor’s role now , is  to mine for problems to exploit on behalf of the huge financially powerful firms which lobbied for decades to get the bill passed. After those are found,

any other patient issues are explained away, postponed or ignored. Doctors now act as agents of the state…. helping to carry out national healthcare agendas.
From your doctor, do you get his opinion or a political opinion? Truth is not used in politics. So, is not truth used in medicine?

This is why the death rate in the U.S. is increasing. It is going to get a lot worse. When was the last time you can remember a bad law being repealed in the United States?

About jamesq

I write about economics, politics, and human behavior without the filters people use to protect their illusions. My work starts with natural law and ends with the world as it actually functions, not as citizens are encouraged to imagine it. Free markets evolved as an alternative to violence, and every modern trend away from them leads back toward coercion. I track those cycles, expose the incentives behind them, and explain how power really operates when the slogans are stripped away. Fantasy Free Economics exists to give readers an advantage: clarity in a world that rewards confusion. I don’t soften language, I don’t flatter tribes, and I don’t pretend that government, markets, or human nature are kinder than they are. My goal is simple—help people see the moving picture of events instead of the still frames they’re handed.
