Can or Will this happen in America

This is from a post by Diana Stratton from Rules for Radical Moms.  The question you need to ask yourself is, do you want this to happen in America?

This is what might happen under Obamacare with its 15-person Federal Coordinating Council on Comparative Effectiveness Research, the group which has been designated to prepare the
list of which medical procedures will henceforth be permitted, and which will
not.

May 15—In October 1939, Nazi Leader Adolf Hitler issued an order, written
in his own hand, ordering the extermination of those who were considered
"unworthy of life." The order, entitled "The Destruction of Lives Unworthy of
Life," stated that patients "considered incurable according to the best
available human judgment of their state of health, be accorded a mercy
death."

Hitler's murder spree started with the mentally ill, the terminally ill,
invalids, and the disabled, and eventually spread to millions of Jews,
Gypsies, and other "undesirables"—worked to death or exterminated in
concentration camps.

This monstrous program was initially sold as an economic measure: "The
economic burden represented by people suffering from hereditary diseases is a
danger for the State and society," Nazi Dr. Gerhard Wagner said at the Nazi
party congress in 1934. The Nazis required all state institutions to report
on patients who were chronically ill, and used those reports as the basis to
decide which patients should be killed.

Today, the Obama Administration is beginning to descend down that same road,
promising to make the "tough choices" to cut entitlement programs such as
Medicare and Social Security to save money—at precisely the time in which
an increasing number of Americans are forced to depend on them as the economy
slides deeper into Depression. Obama is willing to spend trillions of dollars
to bail out the financial markets, and pay for it by slashing programs which
keep ordinary Americans alive.

Think we're exaggerating? Take the case of a paper entitled "What Are the
Potential Cost Savings from Legalizing Physician-Assisted Suicide?" It sounds
like something that might have been written by Jeremy Bentham, or Aldous
Huxley, or maybe Nazi doctor Karl Brandt, but it was actually co-authored in
1998 by "bio-ethicist" Ezekiel Emanuel, brother of White House Chief of Staff
Rahm Emanuel, a leading advisor to Obama's budget director Peter Orszag, and
a member of the 15-person Federal Coordinating Council on Comparative
Effectiveness Research, the group which has been designated to prepare the
list of which medical procedures will henceforth be permitted, and which will
not. Emanuel's co-author, Margaret Battin, has written other papers promoting
suicide and selective refusal of medical treatment. The pair are really just
echoing Karl Brandt's defense of euthanasia at Nuremberg: "Death can mean
deliverance. Death is life—just as much as birth. It was never meant to be
murder." But it was.
