During a protest Monday outside the Anchorage office of Sen. Mark Begich (D-AK), demonstrators carried signs saying, “ObamaCare = Euthanasia” and “Kill the Bill or Kill the Seniors.”
“If we have ObamaCare, the older citizens will be euthanized,” one protester said. When asked what part of the bill made her think that, she responded, “All of it.”
“If they [senior citizens] need any health benefits, they will not be given the benefits because we’re not productive anymore,” another demonstrator said. The government will send a “representative,” she said, “to let us know what we want to do in our last days, because we won’t get any medicine, and medical help at all.”
She said she’d read the bill — or at least “parts of it.”
“I read it online,” she said.
