Vladimir Lenin: "Socialized Medicine is the Keystone to the Arch of the Socialist State."​

March 8, 2010


“Would socialized medicine lead to socialization of other phases of life? Lenin thought so. He declared socialized medicine is the keystone to the arch of the socialist state.”
1945 AMA Pamphlet Warning

From the Socialists Workers Party–
When the administration of John F. Kennedy discussed a plan for government health care that would cover people of Social Security age, the American Medical Association (AMA) fought back, along with the insurance and pharmaceutical industries, with a well-funded campaign–complete with a commercial featuring actor Ronald Reagan, who was determined to talk to America about an “imminent threat”:

Now, back in 1927, an American socialist, Norman Thomas, six times candidate for president on the Socialist Party ticket, said the American people would never vote for socialism. But he said under the name of liberalism, the American people would adopt every fragment of the socialist program.

One of the traditional methods of imposing statism or socialism on a people has been by way of medicine. It’s very easy to disguise a medical program as a humanitarian project…Now, the American people, if you put it to them about socialized medicine and gave them a chance to choose, would unhesitatingly vote against it.

…According to the Physicians for a National Health Program’s (PNHP) Karen Palmer, the AMA assessed its members an extra $25 each to resist national health insurance, and in 1945, it spent $1.5 million on lobbying efforts, which at the time was the most expensive lobbying effort in American history.

An AMA pamphlet warned, “Would socialized medicine lead to socialization of other phases of life? Lenin thought so. He declared socialized medicine is the keystone to the arch of the socialist state.”

AMA propaganda from the '60s (especially when dutifully delivered by stooges like Reagan) is pretty entertaining.

In the 1890's Bismarck of Germany felt people were so discontented they might cause problems so he introduced socialised medicine to Germany. Much of the discontent stopped and Germany has had socialized medicine since.

The slippery slope argument does not work with socialized medicine, it's has it's drawbacks but turning a country communist is not one of them.

The Nazis believed in having a large, strong military. What does that say about modern day Americans who want a large, strong military?

And Nazis and communists liked public education,

And that water is wet and fire hot. so those can't be true.

Certainly you didn't read the article, or you would have seen that it was originated by The story of Medicare | SocialistWorker.org
But nice try.

Very good history. I wonder why you didn't go further to explain that to have some respite in the war the Kaiser sent Lenin in a closed train, with twenty million dollars in gold to Russia to keep the Russia revolution going.

Really? Germany? The nation which was responsible for World War I, World War II, the Holocaust, the Nazi's, and Adolf Hilter? That's who you're going to point to as proof that people are "content" and that socialized medicine as a success story?

Yeah, those Germans were so "content", they promptly shoved 20 million Jews into ovens after torturing them....

No, you historically pig ignorant fucking tool shed, Germany was not responsible for WW1, and Hitler was a Austrian.

Please call the probation department and have them get the industrial lubricant to remove your head from your ass.

20 million, dipshit?

Why not make it, oh, 100 million, as long as you're pulling things out of thin air?

No one is offering proof of anything. Just a little history how a stauch conservative, Bismarck, used socialized medicine to reduce the threat of the socialists in 1890's Germany.
Bismarck simply outsocialized the socialists. So in a way socialized medicine may have began as a conservative program under a conservative. long before Lenin brought it to the USSR. God forbid that a nation has a contented people, next they'll expect to be able to pursue happiness.

People should be "contented" - but it's not the government's job to provide that contentment. Gee, imagine that - what a concept...

They did it to get Russia out of the war, so they could concentrate on one front not to keep the revolution going.

In other news, Communists love their children. Guess that means we should hate ours, eh? Logic is a bitch. Read up on it and maybe you won't look so foolish next time.

Awww.... is the little bitch still crying about the beat down he took weeks ago?

What country did Hitler convince to make him supreme ruler? Remind me again? Was it the "contented" people of...... of......GERMANY?!?!

With each post, you look like a bigger asshole (and I'm sure a Sovereign Citizen like you smells like one also...).

Is there anything you're uneducated, ignorant ass can speak intelligently about? Anything? Seriously, anything at all? You don't know the U.S. Constitution. You don't know American history. You don't know world history. Let me guess, daddy was a Sovereign Citizen who took you out of school in the 2nd grade and you've been an illiterate asshole ever since?

World War I (WWI) was a global war centred in Europe that began on 28 July 1914 and lasted until 11 November 1918.

It involved all the world's great powers,[5] which were assembled in two opposing alliances: the Allies (based on the Triple Entente of the United Kingdom, France and Russia) and the Central Powers (originally the Triple Alliance of Germany, Austria-Hungary and Italy

On 28 July, the conflict opened with the Austro-Hungarian invasion of Serbia,[12][13] followed by the German invasion of Belgium, Luxembourg and France

Cuba is a prime example of how great socialized medicine is.

So who, in America decide what the government's job is? Yes, yes within the scope of the constitituion? Do we the people through our elections have any bearing on what will be the government's job?

And yet, despite all that, Hitler was not a German.

It's amusing to watch you piss yourself in fear and run from your own words, but it's getting boring.
