Globalists and one-world promoters never seem to tire of coming up with ways to undermine the sovereignty of the United States. The most recent attempt comes in the form of the misnamed “Security and Prosperity Partnership Of North America (SPP).” In reality, this new “partnership” will likely make us far less secure and certainly less prosperous.

“Biologists have developed a technique for establishing colonies of human embryonic stem cells from an early human embryo without destroying it,” The New York Times reports. “This method could redirect and intensify the emotional political debate over current limits on federal financing for research on human embryonic stem cells, which give rise to the cells and tissues of the body and which scientists and patient advocate groups see as a potential source for treatments for diseases like Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s and diabetes.”

In “Does the Senate Vote on Stem Cell Research Matter?” Michael Tanner, Cato’s director of health and welfare studies, argues: “[T]his is not a debate about whether embryonic stem-cell research should continue — it will. Rather, like so many other issues in Washington, it is a fight about who gets how much of the taxpayers’ money. Stem-cell researchers have become just one more special interest at the federal trough. And, as such, the coming debate is a perfect example of how science becomes politicized when government money is involved.

“If the government were to simply get out of the stem-cell research business and let the private sector continue its good work, medical science would do just fine. Those calling for increased funding could follow Dolby’s example, i.e., take out their checkbooks and support it. Those who oppose embryonic stem-cell research would not be forced to pay for it with their tax dollars. We could have an honest debate about what works and what doesn’t without all the political histrionics. The only ones who would suffer are the politicians, who would have to give up their efforts to manipulate medical progress to stoke their bases.”  >>More<<  

For decades, the U.S. healthcare system was the envy of the entire world. Not coincidentally, there was far less government involvement in medicine during this time. America had the finest doctors and hospitals, patients enjoyed high quality, affordable medical care, and thousands of private charities provided health services for the poor. Doctors focused on treating patients, without the red tape and threat of lawsuits that plague the profession today. Most Americans paid cash for basic services, and had insurance only for major illnesses and accidents. This meant both doctors and patients had an incentive to keep costs down, as the patient was directly responsible for payment, rather than an HMO or government program.
