    The Florida Department of Health is preparing a plan for rationing scarce medical resources in the event of a severe flu outbreak that would allow hospitals to refuse admission to the terminally ill, trauma patients and ventilator patients with the lowest chance of survival, according to the plan.

    “In the event of a pandemic influenza or other public health emergency, the demand for health-care resources and services will dramatically increase,â€

    Wow. I can't wait to see how all the spoiled Americans take the news --
    "Sorry, your mother/father won't be seen as care has been prioritized. "

    As an RN in a major hospital, I cannot imagine the uprising that will ensue. I mean -- people are SO demanding when it comes to their elderly parents and relatives now -- I can't even imagine.

    Maybe this is what it's going to take to convince people that our government is truly not FOR US, but it for money, illegals, and any other sell out option they can come up with.

    Perhaps then they'll start thinking twice about who they're voting into Congress from now on.
