Morse's entire notion negates progress, the concept of triage, of those who most urgently need care getting that care first. We never cared what color accident victims were when we helped load them on the chopper for Shocktrauma when I was a fireman in the 1970s. The least hurt were transported by ambulance. It didn't matter, everyone bleeds red.
But the groundwork has been laid for this by Obamacare and Medicaid, with those who often cannot afford their own insurance providing medical care for those who are "underprivileged" (at gunpoint, ultimately--try not paying your taxes).
Morse's march through the institutions—from foundations to fellowships and finally to a top government post—reveals how radicalism gains influence. Supported by an incestuous network of left-wing nonprofits that credentialize activists and funnel them into positions of power, activists like Morse use studies funded by those same nonprofits to give their agenda a veneer of scientific credibility. And since the nonprofits combine charity with activism, it is easy for them to launder the latter as the former, further insulating them from critique. ...
Not just in medicine and "social science"; this is the end of modern science, death by slogans written on subway walls in spray paint.

Save what you will for the next people who can learn to read.
