Marcel Zaremba – HHS Secretary on Obomacare – A Novel Character

      Dr. Marcel Zaremba thought to himself, “I am really not a nice guy.”  Even as he thought it, a way of pride and satisfaction ran through him.  It was because he was not a nice guy that he had become the HHS Secretary.  Not being nice has started when he was a child.  He had found that being really mean had often gotten his way.  Had people been aware of it at the time he would have been the poster child for the anti-bullying crowd.  He remembered one boy.  After the boy failed to give him his lunch on day, he had buried 10 Dulcolax make you go uncontrollably pills in the kid’s lunch.  The boy did not return to school for a week.   He made it known that he had caused the boys sickness.  He got the respect he deserved from that kid after that.

    He loved his job and the control it provided over the social and healthcare systems in the United States.  A list of the HHS priorities offered on its web site provides some concept of the scope of HHS power.  Included are initiatives to: manage Obamacare, prevent the flu, raise healthier kids, stop Medicare fraud, support Military families, stop Bullying, control food safety, and to fight Aids/HIV.  The scope is breath taking.  Given that scope, HHS had almost no limits on how much it could affect change.  Dr. Zaremba knew and fully appreciated that fact. 

    The last secretary of HHS has been involved in some not so secret affairs with women who could be painted as agents of other countries.  It had not mattered that these women were nothing more than bimbos who catered to guys in power.  The prior secretary really did not care about the scandal aspect or that he was married. That information was not enough to dislodge him from his position. A word or two to the FBI and some suggestion of treason resulted in his untimely death.

    Each time a Secretary  had died, resigned or left as the administration changed it had moved him closer to the ultimate power seat. This last time moved him into the big chair.    It has taken forever for Sibelius to get drummed out because of Obamacare.  He had thought that Obama would have gotten rid of her sooner, but by waiting he had managed to create the perfect scapegoat while the true goals of the system were being implemented in the background.  

    Now, as Secretary he had a full view of the landscape.  One of the many views that he held was that society would be far better off with fewer people of less than average intelligence.  His eugenics background came from a family history where his father and grandfather were avid eugenicists.  He did not believe it was a race thing, though impaired people might be more prevalent in some racial groups.  He had concluded that those who lacked the ability to take care of themselves were the inferior ones.  Those on government benefits and disability were clearly unsuited to reproduce.  Unlike his father, hampered by the  legacy of the Nazi’s, he was in a position to implement effective policies.   It was the HHS agency who got to take care of those who needed government assistance.  ” How fortunate is that?” he thought.
