Isn't it amazing the quality of health care available for these tragic gunshot victims? There is no argument that Obamacare will change the landscape of healthcare in the future if it is allowed to survive.
There is no argument that can be made that Obamacare will improve the system we have seen engaged this last weekend. It can only degrade it.
It begs the question: Would Giffords have even survived the bureaucratic evaluation process much less the triage? Probably not.
If Obamacare is left to mature, the decay of quality medical service like we just witnessed will be dramatic. At best it will become "average". Triage will yield "average" decisions. Treatment will be minimal or "average". Traumatic headshot wounds would never see the inside of an operating room based on quality of life and the victim's residual productivity and public value.

This is the discussion that needs to happen NOW!
