A Society of Cannibals

John Fund of the Wall Street Journal writes an informative op-ed on “Health Reform’s Hidden Victims” – I highly recommend reading it. Given the facts he presents, I don’t see how anyone can advocate a health system like the one President Obama proposes — unless that person accepts forcing some people to sacrifice for the “common good”. To anyone who holds the “common” good over the good of the individual, I would ask one question: if we, as a society, are willing to sacrifice even one individual for the sake of the rest, what separates us from a tribe of cannibals?
