Think about this law. Congress just passed tort reform. Terri's care is partially based on a lawsuit that was over the new tort reform limit. She also gets medicaid, and we want a cap on that.
Congress is now saying that you have the fundamental right to care no matter how dire the situation, no matter your ability to pay for it.
In other words, we just got an endorsement for universal health coverage from congress.
Question to those who support this law. If Terri Schiavo was a single adult waitress who was orphaned and in this condition, would you be willing to pay millions of dollars to keep her alive?
Yes, this entire thing is so ill thought out it is staggering.
And to thing there is Terri's Pappy, on the street, suggesting that Terri smiled to him in order to thank the President... Who is really selling the snake oil? All the while you have the usual guitar players and tambourine shakers in the background - only singing a different version of kumbaya
