So the choice is “reform” or “reform”?
That’s not a choice.
“This sort of discussion is what is included in the current House version of health insurance reform”
And he knows this just exactly how? Are we to think he read and understood the bill?

Yes that would be true. I read a book a few years back on exactly this issue. I can’t remember the name at the moment but it was really eye opening. There was one story where a guy had been getting a prescription for a painkiller but had never stopped getting it refilled. He got to the point where he couldn’t walk and was demonstrating Parkinson’s like symptoms. It wasn’t till the doctor reviewed all the medications that he was taking that he found this out and took him off of it and the man fully recovered.

It is really amazing how many in top positions in the field are sexually deviant in some way or another.
This alleged psychiatrist “Joe Douglas” should know better than to ask people for hypotheticals about the distant future. Gee, isn’t it easy for healthy middle-agers to solemnly speculate about the wonderful self sacrifice they will make in 30 years if they should become unhealthy.... Yeah, those are answers you can take to the bank. What a moron.
He’s basically a liar framing the death culture’s position as only seeking mercy for the people at the absolute end of life.
We all know that the death lovers of the left will not stop at that! Gramdma, the mentally ill and handicapped people like Terry S, are goners if the Left gets centralized power over death care. The ‘rational” doc will be able to rationalize all degrees of the death culture for a variety of reasons.
