The value of integrity is often instinctively understood but seldom fully appreciated in a White Nationalist organization. This quality is not always easy to define, yet its presence or absence can make or break the organization.
The ideology of the White Nationalists differentiates them from the democrats and communists, but prospective members will also use our own integrity or absence of it as a proxy to the value of Our Message, since the others routinely heap scorn on our position.
It’s easy to make a mistake here that a large number of “respectable” WN organizations do, by accepting as the benchmark the jewish definition of “responsibility,” which of course always excludes the preservation of the white race as a legitimate political aim. Since we can never be “respectable” according to the people who run the press, we must take double care for our personal integrity, since “investigators” will usually be prejudiced against us, thanks to the jew-poisoned wells they’ve been served from.
A WN organization is not a mechanical-democratic one but an authoritarian-organic one, and thus functions not through various legalistic means, which eventually destroy or deform the concept of Aryan integrity, but through the selection and promotion of men of strong character and morals to the positions of authority, where they are entrustd with sufficient powers to carry their mission to the benefit of the community, volk and race.
Thus, the leader of a WN organization has far greater powers than the leader of a democratic organization. In particular, he can remove anyone from the organization without giving a reason.
Yet, this does not mean that he is expected to use this authority often; actually this authority can be expected to be used only in one case – treason to Movement or the particular WN organization in question.
The deal that is offered to a member of a WN organization is simple: he must adhere to and actively promote the mission of the organization and regularly pay membership dues in return for staying with an organization as long as it pleases him. The WN organization is neither interested in character deficiencies of a particular member, insofar they do not run counter to membership requirements, nor does it prefer to recruit more able and successful members over less able and successful ones – everyone willing to join a WN organization should have work to do.
While the level of a member’s contribution and performance could and should determine his promotion, the fact that he is limited in what he can contribute should not be grounds for dismissal from a WN organization.
Breaking a membership deal is a wrong thing to do for a WN leader, and generally results in the extinction of the organization in question, since loss of integrity it entails is deadly, especially in the modern environment. Integrity is the bedrock of a successful WN organization.

American manufacturing is disappearing, and what is left is more like small factories with 19th-century technology and low pay than 20th-century huge industrial enterprises with decent pay: the recent academic research tend to support this view. While foreign competition is a well-researched factor, another factor is much less researched, let alonge accounted for: healthcare costs rising through the roof, making manufacturing companies unprofitable and eventually bankrupt in all industrialized countries. Financing requires an increasing part of company profits and government budgets; and healthcare costs can become unbearable. So what should be done? The main effective solutions are painful, yet essential: the sooner they are implemented, the better:
1) All government medical assistance programs, like Medicare and Medicaid, should be terminated, and private medical insurance limited to instances where it actually works: for injuries and other routine surgical operations, not chronic diseases. Benefits should also be lowered. Healthcare is a privilege, not a right, and each citizen’s own responsibility; and insurance can work only with rare statistically predictable events, which is not the case with chronic diseases. What local government can do is to encourage opening of charitable hospitals for the poor, staffed by volunteers.
2) The medical profession should be deregulated: membership and certification issued by AMA should be voluntary, not obligatory, and the completion of MD degree or equivalent shall be the only pass required to enter a medical profession. Also any control over drugs by FDA should be terminated.
3) The concept of healthcare for the elderly shall be completely changed: the goal of such healthcare should be to provide for natural and honorable death, not to artificially prolong life at skyrocketing costs. Doctors shall be encouraged to limit healthcare to persons aged 65 and more to palliative medicine and routine medical procedures, and undertake operations only if paid in full by patients. Also voluntary suicide (euthanasia) laws should be adopted to shield from zealous democratic persecution those far-sighted and honourable MDs, who help their patients to end their lives in a dignified way. Natural death associations shall be formed at local level, to explain to the elderly the benefits of the natural and honourable death over painful and sorrowful existence through expensive artificial means, often at the expense of their relatives, and to help them undertake this important mission.
A good place to start is each WN’s own life. For those of us who are younger, this means replacing health insurance with life insurance with returned premiums, exploring natural childbirth options at home, and finding a private practice where it is possible to get medical care at a reasonable cost. For those of us who are longer, this means consciously refusing various invasive and expensive medical procedures, opting for a natural death in a family circle instead.

Euro has finally reached the rate of USD/EUR 1.294 – the ceiling of a corridor of 1.20-1.30USD where it’s artificially kept by informal agreement of the central banks. The dollar is significantly overvalued: fundamentals price it at between 1.40 and 1.45 USD per euro, yet the agreement has kept it within the corridor so far. Having opened a long euro position at 1.19 a year and a half ago, expecting euro appreciation to the level justified by fundamentals, and I kept it though these 18 month, and intend to increase it further. Even if this time the agreement would keep the USD/EUR rate within the corridor, economic fundamentals would eventually force it to adjust, delivering reasonable profit. Yet I would give 70% probability that it would happen within the next six month, and 60% probability that it would happen in the next 6-8 weeks. Thus my recommendation for the EUR is strong buy.

Access to basic healthcare is a right that benefits the long term health of the folk. Therefore, it is a necessity of survival. The folk need a total revolution in healthcare that puts the emphasis on prevention through healthy living rather than insurance schemes to insure payment for treatment. This is a topic that could take an entire book to explain.

“This is a topic that could take an entire book to explain.”
How about one sentence? KEEP THE STATE THE FUCK OUT.

Govt running health care = people dying on waiting lists. Health care is like anything else, you get what you pay for. The government simply distorts the market, then uses the problems it creates as pretexts for further interventions.
30 November, 2006 at 11:58 pm
Here’s all the explanation I need. Don’t fuckin tax me for someone else’s health deficiencies.
1 December, 2006 at 12:09 am
You have it exactly right Dr. Dolittle, anything else is blissful ignorance, writ large.
1 December, 2006 at 12:16 am
I love the way free market freaks always talk about healthcare being a privledge and not a right, until of course, they need medical care. If health care is left to the free market, you have the situation we have now: Soaring healthcosts always pushing what the market will bear, while millions who can’t afford healthcare (and adding to the cost) are just shit out of luck.
The system is fucked and it needs a major overhaul.
1 December, 2006 at 2:37 am
The costs are high because the government is involved.
1 December, 2006 at 2:58 am
Dear Herr Lenz,
-First something about the “authoritarian” workings of WN political parties and organizations. Do not forget that this might function in some European countries and the US but its forbidden in Germany. Actually that has been the official reason the FRG used to ban the KPD (German Communist Party) back in 1956.
The NPD, for example, having learned from all the bannings before follows the law to the iota so to not give additional reasons to the goverment and courts to ban the party. Actually NPD meetings can become very tiring and boring since every single tiny issue has to be decided democratically and later on written on the protocols.
The “removal” of members from the party list , in particular, can become a very long and time-consuming process.
-On the issue of healthcare i have to protest. Here your capitalist and my socialist view of society collide. I view healthcare as well as education,etc. as a fundamental right not a privilege. Ideally the state must guarantee a top-quality and entirely free of charge healthcare to all its citizens. That at least is what the NS state ,in which i want to live and be apart of, should strive for.
Additionaly as some poster before me pointed out, a higher attention should be turned on the preventive measures of the system.
1 December, 2006 at 3:54 am
I’m not big on arguing about health care, but obviously the U.S. system is out of whack. Non-whites make ‘socialized’ anything fail — and that includes jew lawyers who have turned our courts into circuses and dungeons.
That being said, the health care costs in Germany have been extremely low since Bismark. And the system isn’t fucked up (either in quality or quanity) because Germans having been running it for Germans. Sweden, Norway and Finland are other good examples.
Everyone over 55 should have access to free cyanide, courtesy of the State.

Dear Herr Unbeirrbar,
Thank you for your interesting comment. You are absolutely correct, that the present democratic regime in Germany is trying to de-mocratize all organizations in the country, in vain attempt to turn it into a corrupt and ineffecient entity alike itself. Hence, the situation of NPD is special: it has to comply to many, often ridiculous, demands, in order just to be able to function, and thus at present is not able to utilize all advantages the authoritarian model gives a nationalist organization. Yet, in other countries, where rules of association are not that spring, nationalist organizations generally gravitate towards organic-authoritarian model for the innumerable benefits associated with it.
As for health care, I think, we would have to respectively disasgree. The studeies contantly demonstarte, that state health care is on average more expensive, lower quality, prone to overuse, and unsustainable in the long run that the private health care; I feel it every time going to a private clinic, instead of the state-run one, even though I hold (and pay for) full health insurance. This monster of government run healthcare is threatening both the future of indutry and the fiscal solvency of European countries. Only by slaying (e.g. privatizing) the monster can the future of industrybe salvaged, otherwise soon all industrial products would be “made in China”.

‘That being said, the health care costs in Germany have been extremely low since Bismark. And the system isn’t fucked up (either in quality or quanity) because Germans having been running it for Germans. Sweden, Norway and Finland are other good examples”.
Yes, but the costs are going up every year, and taxes and government debt with it. The system is unsustainable, yet when someone begines to tackle it, communist and socialists go to the streets. Only a nationalist government would be able to change the situation, I guess
1 December, 2006 at 6:02 am
There’s no free anything. Health care direct costs may be low when socialize, but that only means taxes are high. Health care is like any other good, you get what you pay for. The prices are artificially high because government passes laws controlling drugs and pushing care costs onto third parties. Otherwise it would be cheap and plentiful. This is not debatable, it’s simple fact. Price reflects something real, it is not arbitrary. The government can force a low price, but that just means someone else has to pay more, or some people have to do without. In Europe and Canada people die on waiting lists every day of the year. Government is the source of virtually every problem that exists in health care, from its licensing restrictions to its new-drug suppressions to its incredibly wasteful medicare and medicaid. There is no “right” to health care. That implies a responsibility for treating you? If you say the government is responsible for your treatment, then you’re saying that you’re a little kid unfit to run your own life. Do you also have the “right” to eat steak every day and drive a Mazerati? If you say the government has the responsibilty to treat your health problems, then you have no rational reason to object when the government fines you for eating too many carbs, or failing to brush your teeth or riding a bike without a helmet or in a car without a seatbelt. In America, at least in the past, we don’t go for that shit, and that’s why we were able to develop so quickly. Now we exactly the sclerosis Europe has had for a hundred years – now that the parasites have fully developed their lobbies.
1 December, 2006 at 6:09 am
You want state care only because you don’t know what it means. Well, if cunt Clinton had her way, as she very nearly did in ’94, that means you’re forced into a purchasing collective, where you get whatever types of treatment a bureaucrat approves — NOT what you want to eat, what the govt wants to serve. You get treated by a wimmen or minority doctor. Specialist? There are hardly any left due to salary controls and discrimination against the most talented doctors (white males), who are entering the field in record low numbers. Some of you are amazing, it’s like you never heard of Cuba or Russia or England. This stuff is in the body bag and in the book – socialized medicine failed. And you know who the only groups who gets first-class treatment under socialized medicine? The fucking burrocrats. Look at Congress. Their benefits today under half-socialist medicine are far better than yours, and they have the right to opt out of any system they enforce on the rest of us. Medical costs are so high because doctors have to fill out govt-mandated paperwork. Govt blames the insurance company, but they are only following government law and government court decisions, and we all know which hooknosed crew dominates the courts.
1 December, 2006 at 6:13 am
I wrote about this stuff for a decade. it’s just like anything else. The government is never guilty. But the govt is nothing but a proxy for jews. It’s never the jews who are guilty, always the Aryans or antisemites. In health care the form this takes is blaming the private Aryans (insurers, doctors) and absolving the govt burrocrats. Do you know how useless PhDs the government employs? I can only guess, but I’ve heard a hell of lot of them speak. Compilers of useless statistics, writers of useless papers. People who could never get anything done in a competitive environment. You who favor socialized medicine, whether you know it or not, want MORE of this type. Fewer competent white male doctors, more useless, expensive bureaucrats. The government does not do anything well. Its only comparative advantage is enforcing monopoly at gunpoint and moralizing against anybody who points out its failures.
1 December, 2006 at 6:15 am
The government brings us first-class mail, social security, the war on Iraq. After these tremendous successes, I certainly see no logical reason not to trust it with 10%+ of the economy involved with health care.
1 December, 2006 at 6:29 am
‘creativity’ has the answer to ALL the prblms out-line abv by ‘George Lenz’: the ‘leadership principle’, ‘health-care’ and ‘the economy’;
‘the leadership principle’ is the correct organisational form ordained by Nature: and: as such; of course: it is THE ONLY from of ‘organisation’ that can OR WILL work! only the BEST of the BEST are fit to lead or ‘speak for’ the White Race: such people must be TOTALLY DEDICATED to the welfare & future of the race: good examples are: Adolf Hitler, George Lincoln Rockwell and Matt Hale!
the reason that the ‘health-care’ system is imploding is, more or less as Herr Linder sez, ‘government interference’. this ‘interference’, how-ever: begins @ birth with the virtual forcible administration of highly dangerous and toxic ‘vaccines’!…resulting in such life-time debilitations as: autism, intellectual retardation, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s Disease and various other auto-immune ‘dis-orders’ that will, basically, burden the health-care system in perpetuity!
(actually: it even begins BEFORE BIRTH: with the murder of healthy white babies in their mothers’ wombs: simultaneously committing genocide against the white race & saddling the ‘mother’ with increased risks of cervical & breast cancers[not to mention the un-told 'psychological damage'] because of this HIGHLY UN-NATURAL PRACTICE!…..more ‘meat’ for the ‘public health’ meat-grinder! thnx ZOG!)
then: we have the ingestion of highly toxic diets consisiting of various ‘fast foods’ and high-meat contents and the ‘leeching’ of vitamins & minerals from produce caused by agri-business farming: not to mention: the plethora of pesticides, additives and ‘flavours’ ILLEGALLY ADDED to our daily bread!….add ‘genetic modification’ to this brew and you may as well get yr ‘three squares’ from a toxic waste dump!…no wonder people are FCKN SICK!….the THREE BIGGEST KILLERS in Western societies: heart disease, cancer and ‘stroke’ could be eliminated rapidly by the adoption of Klassen’s ‘Salubrious Living’: a return to fully organic farming, a basically vegetarian diet and a vigorous and active life-style! such a programme will ALMOST GUARANTEE that more than ¾ of our hospitals & ‘doctors’ can be khyboshed!…..a similar regime (though: admittedly: on a smaller scale) was in force in National Socialist Germany….i, for one, am continually amazed to see the participants in this regime (usually ex-Waffen SS) being interviewed on TV @ the GRAND OLD AGE of 85+ and still looking OBVIOUSLY FIT & HEALTHY…..IN FACT: MUCH HEALTHIER than men 30+yrs their junior!
‘racial socialism’ is the ideal aim for a White Nationalist economy!
this does not mean ‘communism’, ‘social democracy’ or, even, ‘common or garden variety socialism’: it means: basically: that such kike crap as ‘privatisation’ is non-existent: the public assets/utilities of a white nation are just THAT: the COMMON-WEALTH of the white people of that nation and are NOT for SALE @ ‘bargain base-ment prices’ to some kike conglomerate!
white people CAN ACCUMULATE wealth: as much as they are qualified and endowed by Nature to acquire: how-ever: the RACE must PRECEDE PROFITS….if the making of profits conflicts with the good of the race…then: the race MUST COME FIRST!
(‘that which is GOOD for the White Race shall be the ultimate virtue. that which is BAD for the White Race shall be the ultimate evil!’)
the currency of a white nation shall be ‘pegged’ to the productive out-put of the native genius of that White Nation: as such: it is above & beyond the manipulation of ZOG money moguls!

Anything bureaucracy (especially in our Judaized society) gets its hands into, will become ineffecient and corrupted. This is proven today with charity work. Charities work far better when the people are doing it themselves, when someone who is wealthy sets up a charity of his/her own and manages it, rather than just giving millions or billions to the U.N. for example.
1 December, 2006 at 7:36 am
It is a libertarian farce to condemn ‘government’ while not admitting that it is merely an institution run by specific people. Was socialized medicine carried out by Bismark and the Kaiser for the German people a failure? No. Quite the opposite: it was a stunning success.
Does the U.S. in its current form make socialized medicine possible? NO. Socialized anything in the Kwa with nigs and jews on the loose is DOOMED to failure.
COULD the U.S. under a White Nationalist government provide socialized medicine, cyanide at 55, etc. for it’s white citizens — AND do it with little to no taxes? OF COURSE!
1 December, 2006 at 7:39 am
Citizens blame their government much like shooters blame guns, musicians their instruments, drivers their cars, workmen tools, etc…
1 December, 2006 at 8:15 am
Alex: The big problem is that the health insurance corporations are taking a 20% profit on the dollars that flow between the health care provider, and the health care consumer. Taking 20 cents of every health care dollar, for administering a plan, is nice work if you can get it. The social security system, that you knock, is administered for about 1 and 1/2 cents per dollar.
Another problem, and one that galls me, is this constant importation of these foreign coon doctors from around the world. Today, there are all kinds of foreign coon nurses being brought into the country too. If you visit an American medical school you will hardly see any young White men—but tons of foreign & domestic Asian-Oriental mystery meat of both sexes.
The old days when your White doctor lived in the same neighborhood, drove a Buick, and had a nicer home than you, are long gone. I think these foreign doctors have led a lot of White American doctors into heathenistic hedonism where money not service is the only reward.
Then the drug corps are almost criminal cartels in their operation—and—even steal public developed property and market it for top dollar.
These are just a few things to consider.
When White American men ran the medical profession—not to many years ago—the cost of medical care was one hell of a lot cheaper & the service better in my opinion.
1 December, 2006 at 8:52 am
Point is, we don’t have to be flip-fools of the libertarians. They ignore racial law, but we needn’t ignore economic law.
Health care could be like any other service. Something between the individual and whoever he sought treatment from. Then it would work like every other market, supply and demand would work themselves out. Instead, because organized groups pressure to get others to pay for their care, the government is involved in every aspect of the health care “market,” so that it is hardly a market at all. And the solution is more government!

“It is a libertarian farce to condemn ‘government’ while not admitting that it is merely an institution run by specific people. Was socialized medicine carried out by Bismark and the Kaiser for the German people a failure? No. Quite the opposite: it was a stunning success”.
It was a stunning success at the beginning, when birthrates were high, premiums low, and it covered only a few deseases. Now birthrates are low, insurance premiums high, and nearly all deseases are covered, contrary to economics of th indutsry. Results: an unsustainable failure, threatening the economy and solvency of public finances. Radical measures are needed, and we need to advocate for them to be at the forefront of discourse on the subject.
1 December, 2006 at 9:05 am
The social security system, that you knock, is administered for about 1 and 1/2 cents per dollar.
That’s just government propaganda. Even if true it’s irrelevant. And why should the cost even be that high? All they’re doing is depositing and cutting checks. Big fing deal. Bank robbers dont charge anything to administer the money they steal. Oh, but the difference is the government gives you the money back!…sixty years later…after several decades of inflation. Of course, no one is forced to participate in “social security”! Ha. Haha. Hahahahahaahfuckingha.
SS tax on self-employed people is what, 15%? Participation is…involuntary. Great program.
SS is just a way to soak the young and prosper the dotards. It works against good character by encouraging people to rely on the government rather than their own savings. It’s an important part of the culture of debt, desperation and degeneracy. Sustained by lies and endless fresh tax meat in the form of mexicans. Enjoy the externalities.
1 December, 2006 at 9:07 am
At least the bankrobber leaves you alone after he steals. The SS thief never leaves. Every single month, every single paycheck he shows up.
1 December, 2006 at 9:09 am
SS money goes into general funds, used by lying criminal pols for whatever purpose they see fit. Absolutely ZERO guarantee to the victim. Who knows if the country will be around in sixty years? Who know if the country wil be solvent? Any other system or option is smeared by government operators as “risky schemes.”
If SS were worthwhile, it would be voluntary. It isn’t.
1 December, 2006 at 9:15 am
If the government truly cared about the people’s interest, rather than its own, and absolutely felt it had to intervene since people weren’t responsible enough to prepare for retirement, then the government could, as I believe Asian countries have done, force citizens to save portions of their paychecks. But the government doesnt give a shit about its citizens, only itself. It wants money you earned and it wants it NOW. Right fucking NOW. Whatever it may owe you, it’ll worry about years down the road. Cut some checks to some dotard-votards to keep the scam running, that’s just a cost of doing business.
1 December, 2006 at 9:24 am
Alex: Today you do have anarchy of the market! The private for profit health insurance corporations taking their 20% off the top every year. That builds double digit inflation into the system.
The ethical drug corporate cartels ripping the public off—even charging the public premium prices for publically developed drugs. As has been pointed out, all of this bullshit about the cost of development of drugs by the drug corporations is just that—bullshit. The drug corps take drugs that have been developed at publically funded institutions, and market those drugs. Why do you think there are always drug corp pushers in the same waiting room as you? Ever notice that?
How come every Ho Fung Dung, Gupta Patel Sanjay, and Mohammed has to be in the US trying to get rich off of American misery? These foreign pagan coon doctors think they are entitled to gold plated everything. They also think they are entitled to move their whole damn village here too.
Then let’s not forget to examine these so-called non-profit hospitals & clinics, that in reality are anything but non-profit for a certain in group.
Why is our tax money diverted everywhere—but—where it might do some good for White Americans?
1 December, 2006 at 9:36 am
Even Aryans cant be better than they are. Incentives can’t be denied. Government officials CANNOT possess the knowledge necessary to plan health care for the country. No one can. It isn’t possible.
Almost every human activity affects health, one way or another. If you let the government run health care, pretty soon you’re going to find it attempting to control all those other activities too. Yes, even nazis will do that. They’ll start banning smoking and go on from there, as they in fact did. There is no logical end point. I’ve now been sitting at my computer screen for approx 12 hours. Does that sound healthy to you? Well, if the government is running healthcare responsibly, they will hire PhDs to study the optimal tv/computer time, and pass laws against hyper-sitters. That’s the only way they can keep costs down, by making sure we’re exercising and now getting heart disease.
I’m going to slow this down so the dolts can get it. Socialized health care means THEY make the decisions instead of YOU. All you get out of it is a huge sharkbite in your paycheck and a place on a waiting list.
People who themselves are incompetent tend to love the idea of an omnipotent government running everything. Everything seems easy to idiots. “Let the government run it!” What does the government do well?
Name me one thing. One thing.
You can’t.
So why would health care be any different?
Socialized medicine appeals to people too stupid to trace cause and effect.
And too dumb to check the record books and see that in practice it means people dying on waiting lists. When you turn over health care to the government, you turn over your power to make decisions regarding your health to, let’s personalize it, Hillary Clinton.
Seriously, that’s exactly what socialized medicine means. It meansThat Cunt gets to decide which diseases are treated, and by which techniques. Which pills you can take post-op. Would you want TC deciding those things? If she could, that moralizing, jew-advised Protestant-liberal cunt would dictate every jot and tittle of your life. Some of you idiots don’t realize the implications of your positions. You’re saying, I’m too much of a useless fuckup to make my own decision, let the all-knowning ma & pa government do it for me.
I don’t mind paying 85% of my paycheck for Socialized Shoecare. These 1975 vinyl OJ Spotbilts fit like a glove!
1 December, 2006 at 10:21 am
The ethical drug corporate cartels ripping the public off—even charging the public premium prices for publically developed drugs.
That’s a bullshit term – publicly developed drug. Well, let’s see, there is no such thing as a privately developed drug because the FDA has to approve them all before they get on the market. So, very, very few drugs can be approved because the burrocrat has no incentive to approve them. All that can happen is another Thalidomide (an FDA-approved drug that resulted in all kinds of fucked up babies and birth defects). The stupid public never realizes the cost of drugs never developed because it’s invisible and the media are way too fourth-grade to lay it out for the morons.
As has been pointed out, all of this bullshit about the cost of development of drugs by the drug corporations is just that—bullshit. The drug corps take drugs that have been developed at publically funded institutions, and market those drugs. Why do you think there are always drug corp pushers in the same waiting room as you? Ever notice that?
No, no, no. You’ve got it all backwards. The govt got into health care. A private drug company can’t exist because it has to get govt approval. That involves politicking. And then you act like the company is the bad guy! The company didn’t set the situation up, greedy idiots who want “free” health care and “safe” drugs did. What we see is the natural result. No safety, no security, and a hell of a lot fewer drugs than would exist otherwise. A completely jewed-out health “system” which shouldnt be a system at all. Jew David Kessler is the perfect embodiment of socialized medicine. A dickhead dictator with powers logically placed in the control of the sick person.
Governments don’t develop anything. They steal money from people. That’s all they do. Through their theft and administration they exert so much control that it can appear they are the source of good things, but in every single case, upon examination, they are NOT the source of good things, they are PREVENTING good things from being done through spurious claims of upholding standards. In a non-Aryan society of idiots, the public intelligence level is simply too low to grasp this. Even in an all-Aryan society it would be hard to get across, unless the average intelligence approached 120, I would speculate.
What we see in healthcare is the result of idiot socialists getting involved in yet another area they have no ability but plenty of lust to control. And since the media are nothing but PR for the government, real causes and effects are hidden – in fact they are reverse — gee, just like everything else in politics in the Kwa, eh? “Diversity is our greatest strenth” yes sure and the government provides “social security” and “first class mail delivery” and if you steal a banana it will heal you in a “correctional institution.” It makes sure Johnny McPublic gulps only the salubriousest of pills, like Thalidomide.
Any problem in this scenario are due to greedy corporations.
Ever hear of “greedy government”? No. That phrase, accoring to Lexis-Nexis, has never appeared in a mainstream media report.
The government got involved with approving drugs. Pharmaceutical corporations HAVE to be involved with politics, they literally have no other option if they wish to stay in business. This system has been in place for so long, and its effects so obscurbed by govt-handmaiden media that we’ve lost sight of the fact that the government doesn’t develop any drugs. The government takes HUGE amounts of money from people and then claims credit for the tiny bit of good done with those funds. No mention is ever made of the drugs not developed because the cost is so great. Thanks to govt restrictions, FDA rules, the average cost of drug development probably exceeds a billion dollars. But you side with people blaming private industry rather than government! Why does government have ANYTHING to do with medicine or healthcare? What possible expertise has Hillary Clinton as a synecdouche for the whole rotten cunt that is FEDZOG to contribute to health care? Not a thing. All govt does is fuck things up. The FDA approved thalidomide. The best thing that can be done is let private people and companies make decisions. The market — private voluntary arrangements — can handle health care as easily as everything else. That ought to be self evident.

Today you do have anarchy of the market! The private for profit health insurance corporations taking their 20% off the top every year. That builds double digit inflation into the system.
First, that number is probably recycled agitprop. Second, gee I guess no one’s interested in moving into a market it can reap easy 15% profits in? Or, third, maybe the Giant Cunt Government has raised barriers to entry so high with its red tape that only a few politically connected giants remain. Remember, in cases of incest, always blame the kids, never the parents.

The government doesn’t care if people die because they don’t have access to drugs never produced because of excessive regulation any more than it gives a shit if its citizens die in Iraq fighting a war that serves no conceivable national interest. There is absolutely zero connection between the American government and the people, save that most Americans are as dumb as retarded children, and don’t understand how they’re manipulated. They wave flags with insane grins like the tard kid crossing the finish line in the Garth Brooks “Fire” video. Voting is Special Olympics for normals.

Example of government in action. It distributes hundreds of thousands of dollars taken at gunpoint to doctors to set up telehealth systems that are used once or twice a month. Equipment is purchase, it sits and collects dust. Fat women and ceta males write grant app after grant app, full of lies and baseless projection. Actual working telehealth system, USED OFTEN, by ob/gyn doct for fetal monitoring of his patients in their homes. He devises it, on his own time, with off the shelf equipment, no grant apps no bs approval from this that or the other agency. That is how the world actually works. People who can, do. People who can’t, coerce. People who aren’t really people at all write grant applications.

The government, above the low levels, is made up of people who are shameless and aggressive – self-righteous liars suffuse its ranks. The jewish race is perfectly suited to government, and the Aryan race is well suited tax slavery.

Alex: Health care costs have been rising at about 17% per year, and you can be sure that costs will escalate even more with the rise in the cost of fuel over the last couple of years.
If you have a half way decent health insurance policy on yourself, and your family, it is pronbably costing you around $600 a month. You can pay less for strictly major medical, with some extras depending on how much you are willing to pay for them. I would hope that you are carrying at least major medical.
Btw, if you die tomorrow, there is an insurance benefit paid to your family by the social security system until your children reach adulthood or finish school.

I may be technically wrong re FDA APPROVING Thalidomide, but this article makes many of the points re FDA’s having incentive NOT to approve drugs, as the cost of drugs never developed is invisible, while the cost of approved drugs that cause problems is all too public.
The Right Lesson To Learn From Thalidomide
Steven B. Harris, M.D.
The Food and Drug Administration was originally (early in this century) charged with establishing the purity and safety of foods and drugs. As such, it was tolerable, and even did a certain amount of good in acting as policeman against certain types of actions which we all agree constitute “fraud” (i.e., putting horsemeat in the hamburger, putting sugar instead of antibiotic in the antibiotic pills, etc.)
But then, and the late 1950′s and early 60′s, something horrible happened, both to the citizen and to the State. In Europe, a drug called thalidomide was marketed as a tranquilizer. In America, the FDA official in charge of the American “new drug application” for thalidomide (Nov., 1960) was a woman physician (Francis Kelsey, M.D.) whose physician/pharmacist husband did not like the way routine pharmacologic tests had been done on thalidomide. Dr. Kelsey was also concerned about some medical reports in late 1960 that thalidomide might cause neuropathy in some of its users. Neither of these concerns was fatal for the thalidomide application, but together they were enough to hold up the FDA’s approval of thalidomide for a year. Since neither problem had anything to do with birth defects, it was only by the sheerest chance that the red-tape in these matters caused introduction of thalidomide to be delayed in the U.S. until it began to be suggested in late 1961 that thalidomide was a dangerous drug for pregnant women. In the end, the association between thalidomide and birth defects was discovered in Europe, not America — and certainly was not discovered by the FDA. Despite this, on August 7, 1962 a grateful President John F. Kennedy awarded the Distinguished Federal Civil Service Award to Dr. Kelsey, who by this time was beginning to make (in retrospect) statements about how she had been concerned with the reproductive safety of thalidomide all along.
However much we all like heroic tales and medals, there is actually very little in the record to bear out the official heroic version of the thalidomide story. Upon careful examination it appears that no reproductive tests were done at all on thalidomide before 1961, nor indeed did the FDA ask for any. In fact, it appears that even had any pre-marketing reproductive tests of thalidomide in rats been done, they would have *still* have shown negative results, for thalidomide (as it turned out later) does not cause birth defects in rats. We now know that it would have taken a much more exhaustive set of animal tests to catch thalidomide than was routinely used anywhere in 1961. An honest reading of the facts thus forces the conclusion that (questions of luck aside) Dr. Kelsey’s medal was awarded basically for being a delay-causing bureaucrat and thereby allowing Europeans to serve as first-class “guinea pigs” for Americans, in a case where (quite literally) guinea pigs themselves would not have done an adequate job. Dr. Kelsey’s medal was soon to become an excuse for much self-congratulation regarding FDA policy, without much thought being given to what the consequences of a de-facto U.S. marketing delay policy might be, if applied to all new drugs across-the-board.
And there was other fallout. In 1962 the thalidomide disaster gave unexpected new life to several stalled bills on capitol hill which proposed to give the FDA power over not only safety, but also the _efficacy_ of new drugs. There was a some irony in this, since the thalidomide disaster itself was of course an issue of safety, and had nothing at all to do with efficacy (the bills were themselves introduced before anyone had heard of thalidomide). Unfortunately, however, the fine distinction was lost on congress, which only knew that the FDA seemed to be a good thing and should therefore be made bigger. In 1962 the so-called “Kefauver Amendments” to the Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act were passed into law, giving the FDA new broad powers, and thus the bloated and mutated regulatory agency that we know today was born. Thalidomide, as it turned out, proved to be a monster–producing drug in more ways than one.
Today, thirty years later, the cost of developing and marketing a new drug in the United States has risen to an average of about a quarter of a billion dollars PER DRUG. To make a long story short, a large part of this money is regulatory cost. Not surprisingly, the huge sums spent in drug development are reflected in the price which the consumer pays when he/she picks up any prescription for a newer drug. The reader who wishes to directly assess the regulatory cost of the FDA is invited to shop for pharmaceuticals in Mexico, where (except for packaging) the identical pharmaceutical product made by the identical company can sometimes be had for as little as 1/5th the U.S. price.
The FDA is responsible for high regulatory costs in money; the regulatory cost in lives is more difficult to assess, but is probably significant. The high cost of drugs has led not a few impoverished patients to stop taking what the doctor ordered, sometimes with expensive or even tragic results. Even worse, the newest drugs now, as a rule, are available in Europe for years before being available in the U.S., and in the interim many U.S. patients almost certainly die for lack of treatment. One estimate, for instance, puts the number of people who died of cardiac arrhythmias, as the direct result of the historical FDA’s multi-year lag-time in evaluating beta-blocker drugs, in the hundreds of thousands– a number which, if correct, makes up for thalidomide many times over.
It is important to understand that this situation arises via one of the significant shortcomings of democracy. Politically, the FDA comes under severe pressure for passing a drug which is later shown to be unsafe, but (in an unbalanced way) comes in for much less political pressure as regards the equally dangerous failure to swiftly pass a drug which proves to be efficacious. This lack of balance results from the fact that patients who die as the result of a drug-reaction are seen to die because of the drug, but patients who die as the result of lack of a drug (especially one which the local docs are not familiar with) are seen to die of the *disease*. Even if the local doctor understands the FDA’s role in preventing the patient from being properly treated, “Stenosis of the Government” is not a medical diagnosis, and cannot be written on a Death Certificate.
It is also important to understand that this situation arises because of a certain laziness of the citizenry in understanding that the decision of whether to take a specific drug for a specific purpose, is only partly a scientific one. The reason for this is that, even in the rare case where the probabilistic risks and the benefits of “taking the drug vs. not taking it” have been fully defined by science, the *balancing* of these risks and benefits is still an ethical and moral decision, and one which varies wildly from person to person, due to circumstance and personal preference.
To put it succinctly, the decision to try a new and possibly dangerous treatment may well and properly be influenced by how much pain the prospective treatment-taker is in, and even upon how soon he or she can expect to die if nothing is done. Unfortunately, however, these factors do not directly enter into decisions made in Washington, basically because Washington is not in pain, and Washington is not dying. If you are the patient with a serious problem, therefore, you may expect that having a decision about your treatment made for you in Washington is less likely to be satisfactory, if for no other reason simply due to the fact that they do not know you or your problems in Washington, and even if they did know you, still could not care about your problems nearly so much as you and your family do. Empathy is a function of proximity; all physicians know this. It is an elementary principle of medicine that nearly any displacement of medical decision-making away from patient and physician in the direction of a place thousands of miles away, is bound to result in needless suffering. Thus, the FDA as it functions today is basically engaged in an evil enterprise. To be sure, the people who run the FDA may not be evil people (though perhaps some are) but unfortunately, this does not change the facts about the FDA’s generally negative impact upon the world.
The FDA, it must be remembered, is in the game for the political power, not for the benefit of the citizenry. This is a fact which comes across in many issues, large and small:
* In large health issues, the FDA is known to bow to political pressure if it is massive enough (i.e., the AIDS lobby), but there are very few fatal diseases in which those struck by the disease are characteristically young and full of energy (which can be used for lobbying) for many years before they succumb. The FDA as an institution is thus free to remain firmly entrenched to retard development of treatments for hundreds of equally deadly diseases which have smaller or weaker groups of victims, by comparison with AIDS. Alzheimer’s disease patients, for instance, do not ACT UP.
* In small health issues the FDA’s basic unconcern for health is neatly illustrated by the fact that the FDA will not permit any information about the possible dangers or side-effects of particular herbal preparations to be printed on the bottle label, even though such warnings might do much good. This is because the FDA does not want to set the precedent of providing usage information of any kind on herb bottle labels. The safety of the consumer is secondary to the politics of the issue.
A full discussion of the FDA’s many failings on specific issues is beyond the bounds of this essay, but there is room for a last informative illustration. For more than ten years the FDA has zealously prohibited vitamin companies from making claims about the ability of the B vitamin folic acid to prevent certain birth defects, even while evidence in favor of this hypothesis mounted year by year. Finally, this year (1992) the American Society of Pediatrics, in the face of overwhelming scientific evidence, formally recommended that all women of childbearing age (whether known to be pregnant or not) routinely take a folic acid supplement pill. Incredibly, as of this writing, the FDA will still not permit vitamin manufacturers to inform the public of this on the bottle label (!) Since there now appears no place the FDA can hide on this issue, however, it now seems likely that, rather than admit a health claim for a vitamin pill, the FDA will instead soon *mandate* adding folate to white flour, as part of the enrichment process. We thus seem likely to go very soon from a situation where manufacturers are prohibited from telling of the benefits of the vitamin, to one in which manufacturers are *obligated* to add it to your food without your request (perhaps still without being allowed to tell you why). Going from “prohibited” to “required” without going through the intermediate state of individual choice is a nice illustration of the way our government thinks, to be sure, but in the meanwhile, until all this is sorted out and everyone is forced into the “correct” mode, more children will surely be born deformed because their parents meanwhile lacked information on supplementation. Once again, however, the mission of the FDA is power, not the prevention of birth defects. Anyone who still thinks otherwise did not learn the right lesson from thalidomide.

Funny that some of you trust the same government that stuffs your neighborhood full of niggers to look after your health.

Alex: Our national health care policy is to flood the medical professions with foreign niggers i.e. Asians, Africans, & Orientals who wish to gold plate themselves, and their tribes at our expense.
Btw, are their White American anesthesiologists?

“All that can happen is another Thalidomide (an FDA-approved drug that resulted in all kinds of fucked up babies and birth defects).”
Thalidomide was approved for use in Europe and Canada, but not approved by the FDA here.
1 December, 2006 at 1:36 pm
Who invented thalidomide? Has anyone documented a clear and unambigious trail from original idea to a marketed drug? Was it ALL of Europe that suffered, or mostly GERMANY?
I could GUESS (easy, with all my bias), but, I wonder if anyone has ever well-documented the story.

There’s no reason to trust the government in anything. I learned this when I had my appendix removed and woke up to find a negress stuffing a tube up my ureter to get out urine stalled by the anesthetic.

Two thoughts:
One, there is not that great a difference in life expectancy between between 1900 and 2000; the greatest factor in this has been the tremendous investment in one section of the public health infrastructure – municipal water and sewer systems.
Two, many of the health “issues” we face could be virtually removed by a good basic diet, no overeating, and a minimum amount of light exercise daily – a brisk walk around the block a couple of times does wonders, IF your weight is under control.
These measures are simple to do, easy to understand, and quite effective.
NOW…
Look around you, and see how many people are not just fat, not just obese, but morbidly obese, and then realize that commercial furniture designers are now building chairs that will hold people that weight 500 pounds – 300, plus a margin for error the insurance companies really want to see.
Look at new ambulances that are oversized, with motorized lifts for the oversized gurneys.
I recall an appearance on some tv show or another just a few years back, with some guy who weight some inhuman amount, telling the camera, “I don’t want to die; I want to live, and I want to live a normal life,” AS HE WAS EATING A BOX OF DUNKIN’ DONUTS. (They had to remove, nit just the front door, but most of the front WALL of his house, to get him out into an ambulance!)
That might be an apt metaphor for the former middle class, come to think of it…
“I don’t want to face the loss of real income and my declining standard of living; I’ll just use the appreciating value of my house like some big ATM, so we can take that trip to the Bahamas so my wife won’t leave me…”
See the massive chain of co-dependency happening here?
No one has the courage to practice The Wisdom Of The Knife’ looking at something with a lot of loose ends, cutting off the loose ends, and saying, “THERE! That’s THAT! What’s next?”
Those choices will be forced on us, all too soon.

We now have over 100 million nigs and spics in America and 90% of them take from the system instead of paying into it. When you get enough mud people no system is viable for long.
2 December, 2006 at 10:33 am
Dear Herr Lenz,
i have to inform you that the actual costs of the health care system in Germany has been at a stable 11% of the GDP over the last 20 years. While the “partly privatized” system in the USA is at 15% if i’m not mistaken.
The reason why working people have to pay more into the health care than before, even though the actual costs of the system havent changed in the last 20 years, is because today we have more unemployed people than before. Due to Globalization capitalists produce overseas thereby the number of working Germans paying into the system has decreased. The same costs have now to be shared by a lesser pool of working people.
Even as such,as much as i know health care dues in “socialized” Germany are much lower than in “privatized” USA.
The capitalists turn “shit into a blessing” so to speak and use the following argumentation: “Well if it werent for the high health costs than German wages could compete with Chinese wages and we wouldnt be forced to produce overseas”.
2 December, 2006 at 5:53 pm
The country with the world’s highest costs for health care? Sweden. Why? Because it is a state monopoly, so the hospitals are crappy as hell at improving efficiency and keeping costs down. A liver transplant, say, costs more to perform than in any other country in the world, thanks to the inefficiency of a state monopoly.
Of course, the robber state solves that by forcing the net givers, the upper half of society to take care of the bill, thereby ensuring that the net takers will keep voting for the socialists. All done to the beat of a doomsday drum that talks of how the evil capitalists are just waiting to throw people out of the hospitals as soon as they get the chance. Don’t let them! They want to take what is yours by right! Vote red! Who cares if there is an unnecessary drain on the economy, because of procedures that could easily be made more efficient? It’s not like a democratic socialist state would ever care about the future – it only cares about the next election.
2 December, 2006 at 5:59 pm
But wait – perhaps health care is too important to leave in the hands of private corporations. Yeah. And food production too, right? Let’s have the state monopolize agriculture – it worked great for the Soviet Union! Why should someone make a profit on your hunger? That’s appalling!
Other productions that are too important to be left to the greedy capitalists: cars, clothing, buildings, machinery, steel, airplanes, medicine, furniture – well, pretty much everything. The state is good, private producers are evil. Let the state handle all, and it will run much better. The proof? Swedish healthcare, of course! And the long lines outside empty Soviet food stores. Obviously Soviet food was so great, it quickly ran out, bought by the cheering masses.
Funnily, by 1985, the 2 percent of privately owned Soviet farm land produced 30 percent of the food. Why? If you don’t know by now, you know nothing. Read here

3 December, 2006 at 10:06 am
Dear Herr Unbeirrbar,
Thank you for your interesting comment. You are correct in stating the fact, that the share of GDP allocated to health care stays roughly the same in Germany. However, the taxes to finance it are growing exponentially, due to 1) overuse of the health care system 2) very low German birthartes 3) growing unemplyement. Yet all three above factors are reflexively connected to the costs of health care: artificially low cost of healthcare worsens the potency of impact factor. Hence, in my humble opinion, the direction of change should be deregulation and privatization of the healthcare monster, not some cosmetic “reforms”.

Unebeirrbar is a voice we hear so seldom, without the jew’s filter, we here in Amerikwa cannot recognize for what it is. The voice of Wilhelm, Bismarck and yes, even the megalomaniac Hitler.
4 December, 2006 at 6:43 am
Dear Herr Lenz,
i have to again clarify a few things concerning the three reasons you gave to explain the rising of taxes on the health care system.
1) Overusage. The fact that the costs of the health care system have remained more or less stable throughout the last 20 years indicates that there is no dramatic increase in the overusage of the system. Nevertheless i agree with you that it will become one in the future. One has only to look to the ever fatter getting boys and girls in our country and the future on this issue becomes very clear. Such could be prevented by the usage of the preventive measures of the system.
Even though overusage of the system will definately become an issue in the future (due to bad nutrition mainly) it is no issue today.
2) Low German birthrates. I was born in the early 80′s and belong probably to the last generetion of Germans that still had at least 2 children per family. And its my generation which today either enters the job market or is still at the college and will enter it in the next few years. The particulary low birth genreations are still school students. Also dont forget the only positive aspect of low-birth: Fewer people taking advantage of health care.
Anyway here too i agree with you that this could become a problem to the health care system, but in the future. Today it still doesnt have any impact.
If those other two problems have had no impact whatsoever on the health care system then what is the reason for the higher getting taxes on it?
The answer to it is the reason you only posted as 3rd even though its the single one most important reason explaining the situation:
3) Unemployment / the rise of part-time jobs. Due to global capitalism unemployement in Germany has soared in the last years. As i explained before ,even though the costs of the system have remained stable, the amount of people having a decent pay wage job is on the decline. Fewer “tax payers” (namely people actually having a job with decent pay) have to share the otherwise same stable costs of the system.
In effect , its not the problems of the health care system that are responsible for the economic problems in our capitalist countries (as capitalists would have us beleive) ,but its the decline of capitalism which is responsible for the problems in our health care system.
Your ideas of “privatizing and deregulating,decentralizing” the health care system are nothing “radical” in that sense. All political parties of the establishment from the SPD to the CDU,FDP and even the Greens propose ideas that eventually even a bit more moderate take the same path as yours. All in the same direction of “privatizing and decentralizing”.
If ever these free-market-fanatic ideas become reality ,long forgotten German sayings of the pre-Bismark era will return like the following: “Show me your smile and i will tell you to which class you belong”. (By smiling you reveal your teeth and while rich Germans had the money for proper medication ,poor Germans had their teeth rotten away.)
Also i find it rather unfair to call me the “reformer”. I’m not the one who wishes to change the health care system. You want to reform it by privatizing and decentralizing it.
Do i beleive that our “socialized” health care system has any chance to survive our global capitalist age? No.
The “socialized” health care system worked fine in te past as long as capital was bound and forced to produce and invest in the home countries. Today in the age of the globalized production and the increasing technological progress capital can produce overseas and indeed increasingly does so.
But while you try to cure the patient taking care of the side-effects of the disease like the ever more expensive health care ,i aim for the disease itself : namely global capitalism.
By reforming the health care system you are only able to prolong the life expectancy of the dying monster named capitalism ,but in the end it will go under anyway.
4 December, 2006 at 11:23 am
Dear Herr Unbeirrbar,
Thank you for your interesting comments. However, I cannot agree with you for the following reasons:
1) Overuse of the health care system. The last two decades witnessed a temendous amount of medical innovations, that in theory, should have reduced the medical costs per patient, and therefore share of medical spending in GDP, in the same degree, that the invention and development of microchips have reduced the costs of computers. Yet, this just did not happen. The main reasons for that are 1) rising overhead and administration costs 2) the overuse of the system, that is that patients are coming to ther doctors and taking operations in many instances, where health improvement are negligeable or in some cases unexistent: some even taking cosmetic operations at taxpayer’s expence. This is waste, and this waste is one of the main reason the healthcare costs did not get down and thus are less and less sustainable in the long run.
2) Low German birthrates. Here the problem is twofold: first more and more seniors with ailing health and excessive healthcare demands are entering the system, while the flow of new workers, paying into the system is dwindling because of the consumerism and egoism of the previous generation: thus the taxes are rising, driving the productive German workers and factories out of the Fatherland. I don’t think the problem is primarily unemployment, as you do, as the large part of this unemployment is comprised of colored migrants who are not productive and should not be in Germany in the first place, though recently a worrisome trend is also starting to affect German workers.
As for capitalism I think we would have to disagree. I am a true believer in free enterprise as the Aryan way of solving economic problems: for all its shortcoming its results are amazing. By transforming the current globalistic capitalism into national-social free enterprise, thus making sure that the businessmen are working in German’s national interest and respect reasonable workers rights, we can once again light the sun of prosperity for every German in the coming century. This however, requires changing the treasonerous regime in Bonn, a task we all need to focus on for now.
4 December, 2006 at 4:18 pm
There is no capitalism today. That is an absurd (also Marxist) position. There are a bunch of GD mixed economies. There are no central banks under capitalism, there is no income tax. There are no government schools in a free society.
Every Western economy is a form of corporatism- and, as Mussolini pointed out, corporatism is FASCISM.

5 December, 2006 at 5:06 am
Dear Herr Lenz,
i read your arguments but did discover nothing new. So i’m forced to repeat the counter-arguments again, hoping to convince you this time.
1) Overuse of the system. You make the correct statement that within 20 years all sorts of medical,electronical and electrical technologies have developed which should have released huge resources ,replacing human work with machines, and thereby the costs of the system should have fallen instead of remaining stable.
What you forgot is that these new freed resources were reinvested into the system. Not in bureaucracy but in the employment of more medical staff (doctors,caretakers, etc) which eventually benefited the overall quality of the system and of course in the rise of the wages of the abovementioned personal.
“Bureaucracy and face lifting” are not more than capitalist propaganda.
2) Low birthrates. To explain the “socialized” German health system an easy formula is given: “The children pay for the health care of the parents”. This of course functions only as long as German families have at least 2 children per family. But today this still is the case. The generation of “low bithers” is still in school and has no impact on the system yet.
The “low birthrate” time bomb has not set in yet but will in the future.
Neither “overuse” nor the “birth-time bomb” have yet had any impact whatsoever on the system. The single most important is the grown unemployement as well as the rise of part-time jobs and the overall low-wage sector. I’m not going to repeat the “why” again i’ve already explained that in the posts above.
Btw the majority of unemployed people in Germany are Germans, not foreigners. Just letting you know.
I will not go into a discussion into the pro’s and contra’s of capitalism here since its a lapse from the original topic which is health care. But let me say this: If nations by one way or another manged to control the capital again then there would be no need of reforming the health care system anyway.
In the “national-social free enterprise” which existed from the times of Bismarck till very recently (before globalization set in full scale) the “socialized” health care system worked perfectly here in Germany.

Worked at a hospital where a jew internal burrocrat sweated profusely, for months, striving insistently to get more Philipina nurses imported (literally imported: his program brought them over, set them up in local cheap hotels, and trumpeted “diversity” in the internal newsletter, along with food drives for them – let’s bring our cans of peaches and green beans for our new neighbors!).
Totally unnecessary. You might say cost-control; but consider this. He also pushed for the hospital to sign a contract with Sodexho, much to the opposition of the hospital administrator. Sodexho is a food-service provider to hospitals. Sodexho is also a jew-run loud “diversity” promoter, #18 on “most committed to diversity” (drill down into site if interested):
http://www.sodexhousa.com/index.asp
What this means is he wanted to bust up the largely White staff. Too “whitebread.” Let’s bring in the muds. The attitude of this guy was he kept to himself and seemed quietly scared and indignant to be surrounded by Whites. I know someone who was seriously ill and in intensive care, given bad treatment by idiot nigger nurse with an attitude. I’ll never forget that kike bastard who wanted the overall nice hospital to go brown.
