Seniors in the U.S. will face similar rationing.

One new bureaucracy, the National Coordinator of Health Information Technology, will monitor treatments to make sure your doctor is doing what the federal government deems appropriate and cost effective.

The goal is to reduce costs and “guide” your doctor’s decisions (442, 446).

According to Daschle, doctors have to give up autonomy and “learn to operate less like solo practitioners.”

The goal, Daschle’s book explained, is to slow the development and use of new medications and technologies because they are driving up costs.

That means you will die more quickly due to lack of the latest medical advances.

Seniors should be more accepting of the conditions that come with age instead of treating them.

The stimulus bill would change that and apply a cost- effectiveness standard set by the Federal Council (464).

It is cheaper to the let the patient die, than to treat them.

In 2006, a U.K. health board decreed that elderly patients with macular degeneration had to wait until they went blind in one eye before they could get a costly new drug to save the other eye. It took almost three years of public protests before the board reversed its decision.

Let them go blind according to the government.

Call the Senators in Maine and Senator Spector. Or if you are within driving distance of DC visit your senators.

Here is another action alert.

I urge you to immediately call your two U.S. Senators at 202-224-3121 and urge them to vote NO on the "Stimulus" bill. Hidden in the massive stimulus bill is the first part of the socialized health care system we’ve been dreading, and it could kill you—literally.

Government bureaucrats will draw up charts assigning arbitrary values to each element of health care, and weigh them against factors such as age and medical history; and someone you will never be able to meet will decide whether or not your life is insufficiently valuable to treat, and they could prevent your doctor from providing the treatment you need.

In 2006, a similar English system ordered that elderly patients with macular degeneration had to wait until they went blind in one eye before they could get a costly drug to save the other eye. That could become an everyday drama in hospitals and doctors offices across the country. They might as well tattoo "Die" on the victim’s foreheads.

This was one of the ideas Senator Daschle recommended, and while public outrage kept him from being confirmed to be the HHS Secretary, his deadly idea lives on, hidden in the stimulus bill which will be voted on anytime in the next few days. The bill number is H.R. 1, but it’s just known as the Stimulus Bill. You can call it the "Death Stimulus Bill" when you call, just so they get the point.

Please call both your senators at 202-224-3121 now. Tell them to vote NO on the stimulus bill and that there is health care rationing in the bill. And call and email your friends asking for their immediate help too.

Please forward this email to everyone you can. Post it on blogs and websites. Call and email talk shows. Email a letter to the editor of your newspaper. You can email your Senators, but please call them first because they will notice if we jam the phone lines, but they could ignore email until after the vote. You can also call the Senator’s home-state offices, you’ll find the numbers on their websites at www.Senate.gov. Senate emails: www.conservativeusa.org/mega-cong.htm.

We must spread the alarm immediately to stop this bill.

One more thing, you can help us spread the word even more broadly with an urgent donation at www.ConservativeUSA.org/donate. The Conservative Caucus exists to protect you from such bills as this—to do the research, to alert millions, to make every attempt to stop bills like this.

Your help with a donation will assist our efforts to reach every possible person with the alert, and also to stop the next dangerous bill. The next four years may be difficult for all freedom-loving Americans; that’s why we must expand our power and influence.

There isn’t much time, the vote could be any time this week.

You can read the bill yourself at http://frwebgate.access.gpo.gov/cgi-bin/getdoc.cgi?dbname=111_cong_bills&docid=f:h1eh.txt.pdf or read the status at http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/z?c111:H.R.1: (you do need the colon at the end of this address). Most of the dangerous health care parts of the bill are on pages 190-192, 442, 444-446, 479, 511, 518 and 540-541.
