You can’t handle the truth

Channeling Colonel Jessup, Tigerhawk reminds why Obamacare is a killer…

Senator, we live in a world that has patients, and those patients have to be treated with technology. Who’s gonna invent, develop it, and build it? You, Senator Sanders? You, Senator Reid? I have a greater responsibility than you could possibly fathom. You weep for high health care costs, and you curse new medical technology. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know. That new medical technology, while expensive, saves lives. And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, saves lives. You don’t want the truth because deep down in places you don’t talk about in front of cameras or in committee hearings, you want me on that production line, you need me on that production line. We use words like innovation, quality, and safety. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent helping injured people. You use them as a punchline. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and walks by virtue of the very medical technology that I provide, and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather you just said thank you, and went on your way. Otherwise, I suggest you pick up a biomedical engineering degree, and get to work inventing better medical devices. Either way, I don’t give a damn what you think you are entitled to.

Dismissed!

  1. Oh Jeepers what a load of crap! Instead of hiding behind bs those of you who are not in favor of health care reform should at least be honest about why you don’t want it. It isn’t because you are worried that it will erode the level of health care you receive or that it will keep new and wonderful drugs or devices from being invented. People and companies invent these things to make money and they will still make money so health care reform isn’t going to stop progress.

    You don’t want to pay for someone else to get medical care pure and simple. You don’t want your taxes to go up. Just say it. It sounds callous but at least its honest.

  2. Every member of the Democratic party should be up for treason charges. Not only are they passing a bill the majority of Americans are against they are doing it with bribes right in front of the citizens of this country. The bill itself has been hiden behind closed doors. Congress and Marxist Obama are taking over this country. Things could get very real. Let’s just hope someone with the money can sue these b—–ds and carry it right to the supreme court. As far as paying for someone elses health care it’s not my job. And hell no I don’t want my taxes to pay for this socialism.
