The Brits of June

Oh, The Brits! The Brits!

Our British Cousins are are it again, and again it is difficult to wrap our minds around the unlimited perfidy of the British Rulers as applied against their Subjects.

Here's an example:
Father's Day Cards Banned in Scottish Schools.

Children in some Scottish Primary Schools are not permitted to pen Fathers' Day Cards (as has previously been traditional), for fear that children who reside in "Same Sex" households or "Single Parent" (mother only) households, may be psychologically damaged by the fact that they do not have a Father figure in their life.

May it not be true that this breakdown in "The Nuclear Family" is such a societal tragedy that the children already realize that there's something wrong with this picture? Do the Scots think that they can avoid the issues by sweeping it under the rug? Perhaps there is, indeed, "something wrong with this picture."

The picture, of course, will not be drawn. The children are forbidden from expressing their feelings about the lack of a complete family.

Maybe the Scots should listen to the children; isn't this, after all, the mantra of the Socialist Liberal? "If it saves just one child ..."

NHS SCANDAL: Dying Cancer Victim Was Forced To Pay

Linda O'Boyle, a victim of bowel cancer, was receiving treatment under the National Health Service when she learned that a new treatment may be effective in prolonging her life.

When she used her own money to purchase this treatment, "... Southend University Hospital NHS Foundation Trust withdrew her free treatment, including the chemotherapy drug she was receiving."

In other words, they cut off ALL Paid Health Care (which she had paid for with her taxes, and which she had been assured would provide here with the best health care available), and ...

they ... let ... her ... die.
Because she didn't play by the rules.
Because she wanted to live.

The trust said yesterday: “A patient can choose whether to continue with the treatment available under the NHS or opt to go privately for a different treatment regime. It is explained to the patient that they can either have their treatment under the NHS or privately, but not both in parallel.”
That's right. For those of you who think that the Clinton/Obama National Health Care strategy is the best way to insure that the best possible health care is available under a Federally administered situation, you need to know that these Socialist programs are invariably (and necessarily) underfunded, and the administers will use any excuse to cut of benefits ... no matter that it results in the death of the subject citizen.

Here's a tip for you, and I give it for free:

Whenever a politician suggests that he or she will enact laws that will make your life a heaven on earth and support you when you cannot support yourself, if it sounds anything at all like legislation that The Brits have already enacted .....

Run, don't walk, to the nearest exit. Vote for the politician who does NOT make these extravagant promises. Because, as sure as Heaven is NOT on Earth, the policies/laws/legislation he proposes "for your benefit" will cause untold misery on yourself and on your fellow subjects citizens.

The Federal Government cannot adequately manage itself, and you want to let them manage your Health Care?

The Brits may serve no higher purpose than to be a model of failed Social Engineering Concepts.

National Health Care is the epitome of a failed Social Engineering Concept.

Just ask Linda O'Boyle Husband ... the one who lived.

This weekend Brian, O’Boyle’s husband, said he was appalled by the way she was treated. He recalled his wife as a woman with an infectious laugh who had given a lifetime of service to the NHS as an assistant occupational therapist. The couple, who had three sons and four grandchildren, lived in Billericay, Essex.

After she developed bowel cancer and began having chemotherapy, doctors told her she should boost her chances of fighting the disease by adding another drug, cetuximab. It is not routinely funded by the NHS.

When she decided to use her savings to pay for it, Southend University Hospital NHS Foundation Trust withdrew her free treatment, including the chemotherapy drug she was receiving.

Note the scandalous admission of The Health Secretary:

Some cancer drugs not yet available on the NHS can markedly increase the chance of survival. But Alan Johnson, the health secretary, claims that co-payment would create a two-tier NHS, with preferential treatment for patients who could afford the extra drugs. Last year he issued guidance to NHS trusts ordering them not to permit patients to pay for additional medicines.
[Emphasis added. Too late for Linda, who (like her husband) was an employee of NHS. Those animals don't even care for their own.]
