I couldn't finish reading that.

jerry2a: I was just about to come in here to comment on the size of submitter's balls for that headline...imagine my surprise when I RTFA.

me too. damn. just. damn.

Hey, let's make unwarranted comparisons between our political opponents and the Nazis. Because a public option for healthcare is exactly like the story recounted in the article.

This guy Godwinned his own health. That's a new one for me.

video man: Have you ever had your kidney removed with anesthesia, ON WEED?
/Huge clanking brass balls. He has them.

And yet that wasn't the only experiment that the Nazis did using him as a guinea pig. Damn.

Sucks to loose a kidney, especially when taken under a regime considered the loser in battle.

Keep this in mind next time you have elective surgery!!! Might outlast your current countries influence and then become a footnote in the failed empire.

All of us are on the brink of a failed empire, 2012 might become a reality. All you Ostrichtes might do well moving to the left and hiding the next 30 years to rise up and become a news-story in the future. Maybe only wait 20 years as current spending methods end will be sooner at present rate.

History is written by the victors, and the lime light placed on the pawns. Not condoning Germany's role in WW2, just stating the obvious. Some parts really bad in WW2, other parts simply happened. 60 years from now might be surprised at history in USA concerning the current situations.

NewportBarGuy: Mengele? Hey! I have that guy in my Obamacare HMO!

Hey, You. You're a scumbag. I hope you and your fellow INDEPENDENT AMERICAN HEROES go lock yourselves in a room and teabag each other to death. Because in broken brains someone attempting healthcare=nazis. I'm sure anyone ever remotely related to WWII loves hearing you idiots proclaim that on a regular basis.

I think eggi541 has been sniffing glue.

I think egg541 is an artificial intelligence.

I thought subby had pre-Godwinned the thread just for the hell of it. Then I RTFA.

Newportbarguy: Mengele? Hey! I have that guy in my Obamacare HMO!

Full retard. You went there, bro

/You NEVER go full retard!

eggi541: Sucks to loose a kidney

Sucks to tighten one, too. We should just leave the things alone, there's no need for adjustments.

And medical schools the world over still use medical "data/research" from Nazi experiments. It's one of those dirty little secrets thats not talked about much.

Stolen kidney?

Your mouth just isn't even remotely connected to whatever you use for a brain, is it? Not remotely.

Common decency. Go look it up, jackass.

ambassador_ahab: ManicParroT: Hey, let's make unwarranted comparisons between our political opponents and the Nazis.

Yeah, this has always bothered me. If somebody doesn't agree with Obama's ideas, that's fine. Write editorials, protest on the White House lawn, or whatever you want to do. But I'm quite certain that Obama's government will never:

a) Send your family to death camps
b) Tattoo a prisoner number on your arm
c) Remove a kidney without anesthetic
d) Then conduct another horrific experiment involving an ice-bath and breathing

PS, this guy is incredibly badass for having survived that; I'd be happy to half a fraction of those cajones.

DEATH PANElS!!!111111

I remember hearing about death panels on the Bill Maher podcast. I thought it was just gutter satire from silly newspapers. Then I came across it online, looked in to it and realised that there are Americans who actually believe it. I don't get how anyone can be that brain dead.

NewportBarGuy: Mengele? Hey! I have that guy in my Obamacare HMO!

Your death would leave the world no poorer.

It's a definite case of Method vs Reward. You cannot deny that in the sum of things, a lot was learned about the human body, it's limits, and it's reactions. The definitely negative side to everything that it came at the cost of immense suffering/death, and all around inhumane treatment.

Holy crap, I'll never complain about being sick again!


Two questions for the adults that might happen across this thread:

1) As what age is it appropriate to discuss the darker side of WWII?

2) Would it be rude to post a Craigslist ad looking for a survivor that would share their story with myself and my son?

E.S.Q.

1) As what age is it appropriate to discuss the darker side of WWII?

I told my son as soon as he was old enough to get it. I'll keep telling him too.

2) Would it be rude to post a Craigslist ad looking for a survivor that would share their story with myself and my son?

I think it could be spamming.

1) As what age should your children be before you discuss the darker side of WWII with them as a parent?

For clarify, realized last one was not clear

E.S.Q.: Holy crap, I'll never complain about being sick again!

Just call a synagogue & ask to speak to a Rabbi they'll put you in touch with someone.

NewportBarGuy: Mengele? Hey! I have that guy in my Obamacare HMO!

You're a sad little troll. The modmin who sees your comments and fails to ban you, however, is truly a disgusting piece of shiat.

ambassador_ahab: Whenever his time on Earth is complete, this guy deserves a special all-encompassing VIP pass in Heaven.

Yeah, he's already been through hell...

meekychuppet: I think eggi541 has been sniffing glue.

Nah. You can't get that incoherent on just glue.

I'm curious, is it the Holocaust in particular you want, or will any genocide do?

Was thinkin' that. I'm putting a lock-washer on mine.

In America, his claim would have been denied by his for-profit health insurance company due to having a pre-existing condition, or for not having seen a doctor since before the doctor he did see was born, or something equally asinine.

/Also, having read NBG's post without having seen the pic, i assume he's just taking a cheap shot at the teabaggers who hold up signs that say stuff like "National Socialist Health Care LOL"
//It' in poor taste, regardless

Was thinking the same thing ... all those times GWB was compared or referred to as Hitler and/or called a Nazi.

fearmongert: Full retard. You went there, bro

Nope. I think you'll find that no "retard" would ever go there.

/ And yet he did.
// I'm not sure there's a name for where he went.

"Death Panels" are a highly emotionally charged description for something that we have in the UK: NICE (National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence).

The job of NICE is to decide what treatments are paid for, and which aren't and they do it in quite a mathematical way based on how many more months of quality life a treatment gives vs the cost of the treatment.

If you have socialised healthcare, you have to have NICE (or kid yourself that all healthcare can be provided).

Did you ever imagine yourself asking that question ever?
