No, I'm not afraid of an Obama win.
I would not be surprised that an Obama "Senior Initiative" mandated:
1) Anyone over 70 yrs old that depends on SS, MUST give up all property & move into "Public Senior Housing".
2) If family members choose to take them in, then they will lose SS benefits.
3) Anyone over 70 in "PSH" will NOT be resuscitated & be able to die with dignity.
>>Farfetched?

I disagree with you, but I'm pretty sure
of what will happen to our health care and our nation's security? I am paranoid.
nope. But I am terrified of what will happen to healthcare, my taxes and my constitutional rights to privacy if McCain/Palin are elected.

Is this just your opinion?
<1) Anyone over 70 yrs old that depends on SS, MUST give up all property & move into "Public Senior Housing".
2) If family members choose to take them in, then they will lose SS benefits.
3) Anyone over 70 in "PSH" will NOT be resuscitated & be able to die with dignity.
4) No expensive treatments for seniors in "PSH"… It's a waste of the "publics funds".
5) If a seniors ailment can be attributed to self infliction, i.e., result of risky acts (driving a car), overweight or smokers, then they do not qualify for treatment… and will be allowed to die with dignity.>>
do you have any proof to back this up? and sources at all?

Of course not.
I'm guessing this comes from the same basic source as does the claim states are planning on succeeding from the Union should Obama be elected.
I work with middle school kids and its really challenging to get them to both understand the concept of crediblity and to apply it to what they find on the internet.
"Psychologists analyzed 88 studies, from 12 countries, with over 22,000 subjects, and found that death anxiety, intolerance of ambiguity, lack of openness to experience, uncertainty avoidance, need for cognitive closure, need for personal structure, and threat of loss of position or self-esteem all contribute to the degree of one's overall political conservatism. Political conservatives stress resistance to change and are motivated to reduce threat and uncertainty."
Jost, J.J, Glaser, J., Kruglanski, A.A., & Sulloway, F.J. (2003). Political conservatism as motivated social cognition. Psychological Bulletin, 129(3), 339-375.
of course you are afraid - it's in your nature. and the Republican Party and a guy who wants to sell books will use it to manipulate you. what you should fear is being manipulated by half-truths that are intentionally designed to feed your fear.
