Nationalized Health Care – mandatory and without option of refusal – sits on our doorstep. It knocks, and for our sake, the President and lady speaker have saved us from answering the door. It will enter, with or without our consent. How will you benefit from socialized medicine?
The world has already experimented with socialized medicine in Canada, North Korea, Europe and Massachusetts, and the results are always the same: The quality of care is diminished and costs go up. But onward we go.
Soon every national medical emergency will be a personal emergency. Every government-produced mass vaccination plan will be pushed on you by your family’s government-approved physician. You’ll be getting the most up-to-date paranoia, right there in your doctor’s office, and you will be legally mandated to comply with her or his advice. Because it’s a matter of law. Because it’s science. And government science is never wrong.
In fact, you may discover that you now have a variety of diseases that you’d never been aware of. For example, Americans who have not yet taken the time to understand the criminal syndicate called the AIDS industry, are about to meet it face to face.
At present, it is only gay men and poor women who give birth in public hospitals who must turn over the intimate details of their sex lives and personal relationships to the state. But no longer. You are now an AIDS patient.
“But I’m not sick! I don’t have AIDS! I’m not HIV positive, and I never will be!” Practice saying it. It will help the officials diagnose you with “HIV dementia.” Soon, you will have AIDS, or SARS, or Bird Flu, or Swine Flu, or Screaming Monkey Virus – or whatever pandemic the WHO and CDC cook up to roil the American public and world markets into a panic so contagious, it will be solvable only by a massive influx of tax-payer-research-cash injected directly into experimental-but-mandatory-vaccines that will only cripple or kill a small-but-acceptable number of lucky recipients who are under the care of the ‘best medical system in the world.’
Too cynical for you? “But what about the great successes of modern times?” You ask. “The vaccine programs; cancer chemotherapy; early screening for prostate and breast abnormalities; AIDS medicines which have prolonged the lives of thousands – tens of thousands.” All great successes. If success is measured by causing more people to become patients, and undergo serious, severe and often life-threatening medical procedures ahead of a need for them, (if such a need was ever going to arise at all). For an example I could list the victims of any recent or historical national vaccine effort.

Start with the HPV vaccine, an untested intramuscular injection given to preteen girls to prevent them from developing a rare cancer “linked to” a virus. The vaccine does not prevent them from contracting the virus, but that doesn’t really matter, because the extremely common, typically latent virus doesn’t cause cancer. Sure, some of the vaccine recipients died, and others suffered debilitating injuries, but that was in the name of government medical science. And science is never wrong.
Or the recipients of experimental AIDS vaccines, who, as a result of being injected with a slurry that was to prevent them from “contracting HIV,” became “HIV positive.”
Or the recipients of vaccines against Bird Flu, Swine Flu, or any other recent pandemic strain that swept the world’s imagination, who then developed “flu-like symptoms,” or worse. But, in the end, it was worth it, because there was no pandemic. You see? Science is never wrong. Especially the science of medicine.
It may interest skeptical readers to know that the greatest success of contemporary immunological interference, the Polio Vaccine, was pushed through despite constant failure; the vaccine produced paralysis and illness in thousands of recipients, all for a disease that did not seem to be communicable, whose numbers were relatively low, and isolated to a particular population. Polio (or acute flaccid paralysis) affected most often the children of wealthy families (it was called “the middle-class plague”). It did not seem to pass between siblings, and certainly not to or among older family members. It tended to avoid the poor, who while suffering their own miseries, in readily-transmitted fevers and poverty-induced-malnutrition, did not however develop that strange and terrifying muscle-and-nerve wasting disease. The CDC said they were immune because they were “exposed to dirt.” And no other children were? What kind of pandemic was this?
The theory of an invisible traveler, a virus, was not the first explanation for Polio. It was long considered an illness induced by exposure to heavy metals and toxic gases. But in the era of the electron microscope, the theory of a tiny single cause gained funding. A candidate was sought. An enterovirus – a little bug that lives in our intestines – was chosen. It was taken out of slurries of material from the dead, and fed to monkeys, who did not, however, develop polio. It was injected into their muscles and blood, and still they did not develop polio. Finally, scientists desperate to prove the mettle of their measure, injected mixtures of feces and tissue slurry directly into the brains of living monkeys and mice. Lo and behold, some of them died. And some were paralyzed. Victory for the viral theory.
It was noted, however, that many humans whose bowels contained that enterovirus never did develop polio. And that many – and soon a majority of persons in the world who developed “polio” (paralysis of one or more limbs), did not seem to have a whiff of that little bug about them. “Non-poliomyelitis acute flaccid paralysis” (non-polio polio) became their designation.
There were competitive theories offered to explain polio, but they required an examination of toxicology and not virology. The children who became paralyzed – children of the wealthy and middle class – were more often exposed to expensive orchard fruit that was coated with neurotoxic pesticides (lead and other arsenates had just come into use). Children in that era were also sprayed in generous portions with aerosolized DDT at public beaches. DDT was soaked into wall-paper that was used in children’s nurseries.
DDT is good at killing mosquitoes. Could it also affect developing neural pathways in small children? Organochlorines and organophosphates, used internationally as pesticides, show up in countries with high rates of “non-polio polio.” Those treated for toxicological poisoning demonstrate strong recovery.
