I think it is a matter of money. We are in so much debt that if they let every person live until they die it costs a fortune. It is horrible to starve someone of course. It is just a matter of who pays for the hospital bill of someone who stays alive years and years longer. I say the family pays. The insurance company should pay until the doctor says there is no hope. Anyone without insurance should not even have a choice. How dare uninsured folks leave the bill to the tax payers. I am really sick of that!!!!
Should I ask for a sarc tag?
I remember a year and a half ago when FReepers were really disgusted by the notion of death panels, but it seems like some FReepers were in favor of death panels the whole time and just kept quiet about it.
It's really disgusting how many FReepers are openly supporting Obamacare.
You better hope your PCP's alter ego isn't Dr. Kevorkian.
Take my word for it, don't trust ANY doctor's pronouncement that "there is no hope." Especially if they do not believe in the sanctity of human life.
