Nincompoops!!! Liars!!! Fucking Idiots!!!.
From Investors Business Daily this is a real-ass quote from their Editorial (arguing against any sort of public option for heath care)!
.
People such as scientist Stephen Hawking wouldn't have a chance in the U.K., where the National Health Service would say the life of this brilliant man, because of his physical handicaps, is essentially worthless.
The British are praised for spending half as much per capita on medical care. How they do it is another matter. The NICE people say that Britain cannot afford to spend $20,000 to extend a life by six months. So if care will cost $1 more, you get to curl up in a corner and die.
.
My favorite thing about this. STEPHEN HAWKING IS BRITISH you dumb asses.

That was be Stephen Hawking the BRITISH BORN AND RAISED professor. Born and raised in England, currently teaching at Cambridge (wikipedia is right in this case).
