Stop meddling with health care

As an attorney who has many years of trial experience in litigation, it is curious to me that the current administration is making a philosophical movement to eliminate the medical Hippocratic oath. Under this oath, doctors are obligated to save the life of every patient. Unfortunately, Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel’s father, who is a doctor, I am told is opposed to the Hippocratic oath. What this does to an ill patient is put his life in the hands of government. Obviously, the Democrats cannot be sued for their mistake in judgment. They have governmental immunity.

The right to life in my opinion is one of the greatest rights there is in the world. For politicians to say you no longer have a right to live is abominable. Obamacare should be abolished since it violates this most important right. Please write your representative and senator showing that you want the government to get out of medical care.
