Arguement #26 "There's No Rationing Of Drugs In Government Health Care."

No, there is rationing of drugs in nationalized health care. Britain has a government agency that limits people's acess to the latest and the most effective drugs. This government agency is, of course, named the opposite of what it does. It's called The National Institute For Health And Clinical Effectiveness. It is not interested in your health and clinical effectiveness; it is interested in saving the government money. The agency decides what drugs you don't get because they are too "expensive." This is rationing plain and simple. Between 1998 and 2002, we in the United States because of private heath care instead of public health care enjoyed 85 new drugs to help us with our physical and mental problems. Of those 85 new drugs, the people in Europe saw only 44 of them because of government health care. The Democrats are not ineterested in health care except as a vehicle to force you to march to their tunes even if it means misery and an early death. The Democrats don't care. It's about force over you not health care. They want to make a slave of you and kill you slowly. This is why the Swedes with their government medical care are so desperate that they go to veterinarians because doctors aren't allowed to see them. Don't let these insane children rule you. Oppose government health care as loudly as you can. Peter Nickerson, MS, MSW at 352-359-0850.
