Cologal
It is a shame that you are failing to understand the point..I will try again. It is not a question as to who is at most risk. What is important is that the government is dictating who will get medicine and who will not. That is circumventing the medical profession who should be making the call. I can attest that the Swine Flu for those over 65 is not generally a tragic event. Both my wife and I contracted it when we returned from a trip to the UK and recovered quite well. What is the concern is that the government is now deciding to "thin the herd" of those over 65 by arbitrarily denying a group proper medical coverage. That is a tragic event. It is a dangerous step towards what a facist or socialist state is known for. If a person is either one of these [Facist/Socialist] then it may fit their way. It is not my desire to turn the US into a facist state. I should also add that my information came from a very well respected Dr. who does not appear on Fox NEWS. Are you old enough to remember the way the facist's Gov't handled those who were mentally challenged, or did not fit what they wanted. If you are then you should be able to remember how all of that started with an simple policy that all overlooked. I repeat: How a nation treats its senior citizens or less fortunate is the true measure of the nation.
