Der Untermensch muss für das Wohl des Landes geopfert werden

Und Der Führer Says He and His Administration are the Super-Duper Men! m/r

Meet the Snobocrats | National Review Online

By 

Jonathan Gruber’s disdain for the proverbial masses is thematic of the last six years. 


Last week, Massachusetts Institute of Technology professor Jonathan Gruber,
one of prominent architects of Obamacare, was exposed as little more
than an elitist fraud.

Gruber was caught on videotape expressing the haughty attitude that drove the
Affordable Care Act, deriding the “stupidity” of Americans as a way to
justify misleading them.

Gruber apparently thinks such deception is okay because yokel voters could not
handle the truth about the looming chaos he helped to engineer in their
health coverage.

Unfortunately, Gruber’s disdain for the proverbial masses — he was paid nearly
$400,000 in consulting fees — is thematic of the last six years.

Another master-of-the-universe drafter of Obamacare was Ezekiel Emanuel. He
scoffed on national television that the number of people covered by
Obamacare at that point was “irrelevant.”


Emanuel also drew attention for his recent adolescent rant in a men’s magazine
about the desirability of everyone dying at 75 to save society the
expense of maintaining what he sees as the unproductive elderly.
