Eugenics And the ObamaCare Connection

Seems that Reichsminister Holdren's endorsement of forced sterilizations is getting a lot more attention than the White House would like. For good reason: Holdren's Eugenecist colleagues have written (prospectively) about the shape and thrust of ObamaCare, and that shape and thrust is already being assembled due to David Obey (D-ScrewYou).

So, of course, the White House denied that Holdren ever said anything about it.

Yah, well....it's in print, folks, countersigned by the 'Prophets' Ehrlich (remember that we were all starved to death back in the '80's? Remember?)

Oh, but it's even more fun. Malkin reports:

Seems that Reichsminister Holdren fervently admires a fellow named Harrison Brown. Brown was a "Distinguished Member" of the International Eugenics Society, no less.

Here's a sample of Harrison Brown's "thought":

Let us suppose that in a given year the birth rate exceeds the death rate by a certain amount, thus resulting in a population increase. During the following year the number of permitted inseminations is decreased, and the number of permitted abortions is increased, in such a way that the birth rate is lowered by the requisite amount. If the death rate exceeds the birth rate, the number of permitted inseminations would be increased while the number of abortions would be decreased. The number of abortions and artificial inseminations permitted in a given year would be determined completely by the difference between the number of deaths and the number of births in the year previous

Yup. That's what he said. You can look it up.

G.K. Chesterton figured out the eugenics bunch's logic early in the 20th Century:

If man is not a divinity, then he is a disease. Either he is the image of God, or else he is the one animal which has gone mad

The Eugenics crowd took answer (B) for ....well,..........several hundred million dollars, when you figure the Planned Parenthood booty.

Here's the ObamaCare/Obey theory:

To view the problem of health rationing objectively, what we need is a concept of man as a colonial creature, similar to ants and bees which, like ourselves, are so highly specialized and so dependent on one another that no one of them can long survive alone. In the hives and homes of these bees and ants, no special care is given to the aged or infirm. Consideration is for the welfare of the colony as a whole. --Dr. George Crile, Jr., Head of Surgery at the Cleveland Clinic, Cleveland, Ohio, quoted by Cal Thomas of the Los Angeles Times Syndicate, September 1984

Your problem, dear reader, is that you never thought of yourself as a bee or ant. (Obama's problem is that he is not a Queen....but he'll find out later, I suppose.)

This is what the Intellectualoids propose. If they can ram it through Congress.

Buy more ammo!!
