right...exactly. there is no such thing as “death panels”..what they are talking about has existed for over 20 years. it is not a “death panel” nor is it euthanasia. I have had many elderly relatives who were counseled at the end of life. This counseling has nothing to do with death panels or euthanasia. There is enough with which to disagree with the President. One does not need to make things up. Esp when it is as ludicrous as this.

OK, you’ve convinced me.

0bama and all the likeminded folks he’s surrounded himself with have no problem with individuals keeping and bearing arms.

What color’s the sky in your world?

You’ve also done the same thing as the regime has done in trying to refute the death panels -
conflated the unrelated issues of end of life counseling with the logically NECESSARY rationing boards.

Healthcare resources are economically “scarce” resources,
and who gets what has to be determined by something,
right now it’s prices. Under single payer, it’s a rationing board, or death panel, if the treatment you need to live is denied by this board.

You do realize that what you are talking about is one thing.......People freely talking about their wishes for the end of their lives. Versus "Government panels, groups, Departments, etc" making these determinations FOR your elderly relatives.

Right?
