Tears save sick China mother from cremation alive

A Chinese peasant woman who suffered a brain hemorrhage was left at the undertakers alive for cremation because her family could no longer afford hospital treatment, state media said on Friday.
She was only saved by the tears in her eyes.

The case is the latest in a series of tragedies illustrating China's stretched health care system and the inability of rural workers to meet spiraling medical costs.

"This is not only a tragedy for the family, but also for society," it quoted Xu Yinghe, a Taizhou official, as saying.

"The fundamental reason is the absence of a social welfare system."

In the late 1970s, 94 percent of China's villagers were covered by cooperative medical schemes. But the collectives were disbanded during market reforms of the 1980s which ended cradle-to-grave welfare for the masses.

NWO has killed, is killing and is going to kill many like this chinese lady.

NWO seeks benefits for the rich only.

"If there had been another option, who would have the heart to send a member of their own family for cremation while there was still a hope of survival?"

The newspaper did not say if the family would face charges.

God God! This was not a mistake, they knew she was not actually dead before leaving her there?

What have we come to?

For the record, I do not see that this is NWO related, I see it as human tragedy, but then what do I know?

While this is terrible I too do not see what this has to do with the NWO.

If you are talking in reference to the high costs of medical care which is out of some people's reach - who do you expect to pay for it exactly?
If your having a dig at our capitalist culture then don't forget if it wasn't for that there wouldn't be any medical care like we have today to get upset about not having anyway.

I can understand your frustration and it annoys me to hell to see all these people suffering in the world when a lot of us, like me, have so much and yet still find time to complain. I find it disgraceful how much food is wasted every day.
In fact - have you seen the scene in 'The Three Amigos' where they are in the desert and 2 of them have run out of water, and the other one is pouring it all over himself and throws it down to pour away while the others are dehydrated. (it is a comedy by the way) - well that's what I see us doing every day.

So yes you do have a reason to feel angry and I can't say you are guilty as the rest of us, due to not knowing where you live or what lifestyle you have, but I think we can lay a lot of the blame on ourselves - rather than point the finger at anyone else.

There wre no such deaths/tragedies in the Socialist era.


Knowing she was not dead IS the tragedy! .............. a hard slap on the face of NWO

She was to get cremated alive because her caretakers did have enough money/means to get her treated.

Thee were no deaths from hunger and no such tragedies due to sicial unjustice.

There was no prostitution in the Eastern Europe ...........!

Can you say it is not due to NWO?

Not due to collapse of the socialist economy ?
