Charlie Gard is sick. The government is going to kill him.

In (what's left of) your mind you know I'm right. Single-payer = Command & Control; Command & Control kills. OK, so if you're already brain-dead then you won't notice. Find that comforting?

I don't know that this has as much to do with socialized health care as it does with an overbearing authoritarian state. Similar things have happened here, such as with Terri Schiavo and Justina Pelletier

They go hand in hand.

I just gave you two examples of similar incidents here and we don't have that system. In the end, it wasn't the NHS who denied them. It was a European Court who issued the final decision siding with the NHS. They could have overturned the decision, but didn't and the European Court has nothing to do with socialized medicine, just like courts here in the U.S. issued their verdicts with Schiavo and Pelletier.

The NHS not only refused to provide treatment, they failed to act as an advocate for a sick child. Absolutely disgraceful.

The parents raised the money to treat their child and Socialist nit wits have done everything possible to ensure the child will not be treated.

Not true.

Alas, this is a perfect example of what a "single payer" system begets. A Control & Command structure replete with death panels.

Be careful, libbie chilin's - you may just get that for which you jones!

Not true.

What is not true? The NHS did not provide the treatment available here in the US. The parents did raise the money for the treatment. The government forbid the treatment.

Dancing banana poop? Really? A child is going to die, and you dance. Pathetic. It's no wonder you need government to make all your decisions for you. You wouldn't survive otherwise.

Good old socialized medicine and government.

Ten-month old Charlie Gard is dying.

The beautiful little baby suffers from a rare genetic condition, and his parents were prepared to let the boy pass away quietly in a London hospital, where he has been cared for since he was born.

But then they discovered an experimental treatment in the United States. It’s a slim chance, and the odds are it won’t help, but parents Chris Gard and Connie Yates wanted to try.

The hospital – the Ormond Street Hospital for Children – had already decided that young Charlie Gard should die. And they were going to do it.

Their government panel ruled that he should be taken off life support so he can “die with dignity.”

So when Chris and Connie raised $1.6 million to fund this last-ditch effort to save their son’s life, they thought they could take him to the States.

The European Court, which apparently oversees whether or not people live or die over there, decided no – Charlie could not be taken out of the hospital. Instead, the hospital was ordered to kill the little boy.

The Unique Thing About American Healthcare Socialists WON’T Tell You

First the OP wrote "..the government is going to kill [Charlie Gard]..".

Then the OP wrote "Charlie Gard is dying".

Then "..the hospital was ordered to kill the little boy".

Does the OP have any clue which of these statements is correct?

I think there are some real questions to be asked about this horrendous case but, as usual, the RWNJs can't help but heap on the lies, thus making real discussion impossible.

So take a shot....let's see your "real discussion".

I can't imagine the pain these parents must be going through. Let's hope President Trump is able to help them.

A Vatican hospital has offered to take Charlie and care for him until he passes.

There is no reason on Earth that should not happen

Is the treatment so complicated it can't be brought to Charlie? We need to help those socialist governments and their free health care.

I wrote the headline and the first line of the post. The rest is directly from the linked articles. You sure pick stupid shit to bitch about.

Try focusing on the facts instead of acting like a moron. The government has decided to kill this child against the parents wishes. They have privately raised the money to bring the child to the US for treatment that is not offered under Socialized Medicine in the U.K. The government has said no and that the child must die.

Read the damn article before posting and stop acting like a piece of shit.

Choose better sources.

Why are you whining about the source? What was inaccurate?
