While the COVID pandemic seems, simultaneously, like it happened yesterday and a lifetime ago, I have not forgotten how the Democrats were so eager to deny those of us who were COVID-vaccine skeptics healthcare. It's a drum I'll keep banging until the nation understands why I oppose Medicare for All, and the rest of you should, too: the Left played its hand in 2020.
For years, they told us healthcare was a right. Right up until the moment you didn't obey them. With that in mind, recall what Sen. Elissa Slotkin, former Obama lackey Susan Rice, Hillary Clinton, and other Democrats have spent weeks talking about doing: engaging in massive lawfare against Republicans if they regain power in D.C. next week. And not just Republican members of Congress or the Trump administration, either: his supporters. That's what Slotkin and Clinton have both said, eager to punish tens of millions of us for having the audacity to not vote they way they wanted us to
Now, connect the dots on this: if they get Medicare for All, where some bureaucrat in Washington decides whether or not you get your chemotherapy, imagine how they'll weaponize this against the half of the nation they openly hate. There's no better way to get their Democrat utopia than to eliminate the half of the electorate that opposes them, after all.
And the groundwork is being laid.
The WHO is now talking about "social inequalities" in cancer, tying the disease to "disadvantaged social groups."
LOL: The WHO is now talking about "social inequalities" in cancer. You heard that right. They published a whole report tying cancer to "disadvantaged social groups."

Your tax dollars were funding this. Thank you, President Trump, for pulling us out of the WHO!…
That's laughable for several reasons. Former Sen. Harry Reid died of cancer. So did actor Patrick Swayze, radio host Rush Limbaugh, former astronaut Sally Ride all died from cancer. Actors William Shatner and Bruce Campbell were both diagnosed with the disease; Shatner says he's in remission and Campbell has accepted the disease will shorten his life, even if he's doing okay for now. British actor Alan Rickman died of it, too, back in 2016.
So did my uncle Mel, in 2014, and my sister-in-law, Judeen, in 2023. Neither of them were rich or privileged.
Cancer doesn't discriminate, and I've seen it firsthand. As a hospice nurse, I cared for cancer patients in the poorest neighborhoods in Milwaukee as well as the richest suburbs.
But cancer care is costly, and it's fertile ground for the politicization of medicine. If COVID wasn't proof enough, look at what Abdul El-Sayed said about breast cancer several years ago. He said it got funding because the women inflicted with the disease have "social power and privilege." Speaking of El-Sayed, he wants your tax dollars to go to pay for sex changes for illegal aliens. You may not be able to see your doctor under Medicare for All, but rest well knowing that Jose from Guatemala can become Josephina on your dime.
What is the Left's solution to such inequalities? It's always, invariably, to put their thumbs on the scales in favor of their preferred constituencies. They already do this with white men and jobs. Many ads blatantly, illegally, said that white men need not apply. They may not be as obvious in healthcare, but they will, undoubtedly, take intersectionality into determining who lives and who dies.
We can also look to Canada for this, where their Medical Assistance in Dying (MAiD) program takes more lives every year than American gun deaths, and fewer Canadian dogs are euthanized than people. But we're not supposed to be concerned, because according to one politician, the victims of this program are a majority white and rich.
This is a precursor to discriminating against white people in cancer treatment.

They always use these things as the basis to harm politically disfavored groups.
Oh, that makes it okay then, I guess.
