Do you think Obamacare would pay for Obama's Grandma's Hip?
Would Obama, after he threw her under the bus?
Over at Bloomberg they wrote........
President Barack Obama said his grandmother’s hip-replacement surgery during the final weeks of her life made him wonder whether expensive procedures for the terminally ill reflect a “sustainable model” for health care.
The president’s grandmother, Madelyn Dunham, had a hip replaced after she was diagnosed with cancer, Obama said in an interview with the New York Times magazine that was published today. Dunham, who lived in Honolulu, died at the age of 86 on Nov. 2, 2008, two days before her grandson’s election victory.
“I don’t know how much that hip replacement cost,” Obama said in the interview. “I would have paid out of pocket for that hip replacement just because she’s my grandmother.” Well if he read the bill, he would find out that there will be no doctors available to do that operation. Government funding is cut off for those doctors who accept the uninsured.
Well most people don't have big book deals to pay for the hip replacement. That is why we have insurance. With Obamacare, Granny Dunham would have been confined to a bed because she needed a new hip but wouldn't get one. She would have received "End of Life Counseling, and a supply of morphine, because Obamacare will be rationed.
If you believe it won't be, you don't know history. Regulators for the government would say, "Why spend all that money on someone who is going to die anyway?"
