Ever ask what is the REAL meaning of "Conservative" is?
*******************************************************
From "Conserving The Race: Natural Aristocracies, Eugenics, and the U.S. Conservation Movement"
To be a good animal is the first requisite to success in life, and to be a Nation of good animals is the first condition of **national prosperity**.—Herbert Spencer

In The Conquest of A Continent, for example, Grant relates how the Nordic (Aryan, etc.)28 race forcefully occupied North America, destroying its forests, looting its minerals, exhausting its soils, and evicting the Indians: "Waste was the order of the day in America:"
All this was perhaps inevitable, but never since Caesar plundered Gaul has so large a territory been sacked in so short a time. Probably no more destructive human being has ever appeared on the world stage than the American pioneer with his axe and rifle.Yet it was precisely those pioneers whom the Boone and Crockett Club eponymously honored, and who were perennially invoked as emblematic of Racial Will — of the daring, dash, and ruthless enterprise which had lifted America to world dominance, and Grant, Osborn, Roosevelt, et al. to the apex of its social ladder.Grant's plunderers were those same industrialists and bankers (or the fathers who bequeathed them fortunes from the sacking) who, at the turn of the century, took up the twin causes of conservation and eugenics.

Could this SHIT really be the true unspoken origins of Conservatism in America? YES IT IS.
After all what exactly are these rich evil fuckers calling themselves conservative, conserving anyways? Did you ever ASK?

"The enthusiasm for conservation among the plutocracy at the turn of the century was more than a passing fashion; it came with a changed view of capital concomitant with inherited wealth and a growing sense of noblesse oblige. The descendants of the men who had mown the forests, gutted the mountains, and slaughtered the seals grew ever more concerned with the long-term management of their assets."

527 Hospitals in U.S. Violated Law Regarding Screening, Treating ER Patients WASHINGTON, D.C. — Twenty-five Texas hospitals in recent years have violated a federal law prohibiting them from dumping patients, leading to people with medical emergencies being improperly screened or refused treatment altogether, a new report from the consumer advocacy group Public Citizen has found.

A license to kill
Imagine visiting your 85-year-old mother in the hospital after she has a debilitating stroke. You find out that, in order to survive, she requires a feeding tube and antibiotics to fight an infection. She once told you that no matter what happenED, she wants to live.
But the doctor refuses further life-sustaining treatment. When you ask why, you are told, in effect, "The time has come for your mother to die. All we will provide is comfort care."Sound far-fetched? It's not. It's already happening.Just as doctors once hooked people up to machines against their will, now many bioethicists advocate that doctors be permitted to refuse life-sustaining treatment that a patient wants but that they deem "futile" or "inappropriate."

A book worth reading on the history of eugenics in America,
http://www.waragainsttheweak.com/

It is no coincidence that the debate over physician-assisted suicide and euthanasia has arisen at a time when managed care has been forced on employees and socialized medicine is being surreptitiously implemented in a piecemeal fashion in our country. There has been increasing talk of a "right to die" and of "death with dignity." Marching close behind those who insist on the "right to die" are those who feel it would be in society's best interest to create a duty to die.

Willing Partners:This broad shift in medical ethics toward a utilitarian measure of life—“is it useful?”—soon found a willing political partner. In a speech given in August 1929, the struggling politician Adolph Hitler said:
If Germany was to get a million children a year and was to remove 700,000–800,000 of the weakest people, then the final result might even be an increase in strength.
As a result of our modern sentimental humanitarianism we are trying to maintain the weak at the expense of the healthy.

That link was from a Christian site,I hate their religion,but I agree with thier assessment of the evil of Eugenics and their historic info.

"Empathy is antithetical to control, which is why control systems demand psychopathy as the standard mode of function.. It serves to keep hierarchy and contractual obligation dominating over caring, compassion, and a heart-felt responsibility for all life. That psychopathy and hared of empathy is what is at the heart of"compassionate conservatism".
Even to this day.
