Doctors Wage War Against Obama's Health Care Overhaul - Political News - FOXNews.com

Doctors Wage War Against Obama's Health Care Overhaul - Political News - FOXNews.com: "As President Obama pushes for passage of his first major domestic policy change, some physicians are waging an all-out war against a health care reform bill they say amounts to nothing more than socialized medicine."

"Some doctors charge the bill will lead to inferior patient care as physician offices around the country triple their patient lists and become forced to ration care."

'"The doctors who have responded this way exhibit a serious case of doctor greed," McDermott told FOXNews.com. "They have lost sight of the common good and the pledge they took in the Hippocratic Oath."'

How will rationing help the common good or be in line with the Hippocratic Oath?

'"These people are practicing fear without a license and they should be subject to a malpractice suit. If things are so good, why are doctors buried under an ever-increasing mountain of paperwork from insurance companies?" McDermott asked.'

No one said that the current system is good -- but the proposed system is much worse!
