The Sad Case of Linda O’Boyle

Linda O’Boyle is dead of cancer at age 64. Her death certificate says so. But the truth is, she was killed by the NHS, Great Britian’s National Health Service, and Alan Johnson, the Health Secretary.

O’Boyle, while being treated under England’s socialized medicine scheme, committed a fatal error.  Desperate for a cure, she sought and paid for private medical care and purchased a drug for her condition not available from the NHS.

Outraged, the NHS and Johnson ruled that if she could afford to purchase any private care, then she would have to pay for all of her care provided by the NHS.

She could not, and the NHS let her die.

Johnson’s response was cold and marxist:
Co-payment would create a two-tier NHS, with preferential treatment for patients who could afford the extra drugs.


[Emphasis on afford]

By their very nature, national health care schemes are socialist bureaucracies run by bureaucratic socialist pin-heads whose highest priority is always “One Size Fits All”, and whose hidden agenda is to always punish those with means; the rich !!

Considering that National Health Care is near the top of Barack Obaba’s to-do list once he is in the White House, voters might do well to keep the late Linda O’boyle - and themselves - in their thoughts and prayers.
