NHS Crisis Threatens The Elderly And Everyone Else In The UK
-
Events in the United Kingdom are showing us that Socialized health care is unsustainable. Disaster is looming for the entire population now. From the Telegraph:
The “chronic under-funding” of care homes, a growing shortage of places and a rapidly ageing population will mean that more vulnerable people have nowhere to go but hospital for the care they need.
If current trends continue, almost 100,000 of 170,000 NHS beds will end up being filled by elderly people who are well enough to be in residential care.
This will cost the health service millions of pounds and throw its day-to-day operations into chaos, says the report by Bupa, the health insurance and care provider. It blames the looming crisis on a “17-year legacy of under-funding in the care home sector”.
The next few years will see the problem getting progressively worse, the report’s authors predict, despite a Coalition pledge that local authorities will have an extra £2 billion to spend on adult social care over the next four years.
As this money is not ring-fenced, councils are likely to use some of this extra funding to pay for other services, the report warns. The Department of Health said it was important that councils were free to decide how they spent the money.
What kind of decisions do you think will have to be made as a result of this? Whose life will be deemed to be worthy of life and to receive life saving medical care? Socialized medicine breeds eugenics except now everyone is in jeopardy not just this or that ethnic group. ObamaCare must be repealed and stopped or this is America’s future.
