Hospice is not all it is cracked up to be.I'm curious, are we talking about hospital hospice units, or some other group?

Hospice usually gets referrals from hospitals, nursing homes, etc. They may or may not be located in the actual hospitals. Hospice International, Hospice USA, Hospice anywhere any time is a registered and almost universally sanctioned organization which with the blessing of the health insurance industry persuades, cajoles, and encourages the sick, and especially the elderly and especially their families to consider the Hospice "way" of easing out of life. Some people are so completely brainwashed believing that its goals are filled with charity that they will defend it no matter what arguments are heard against it. All I am asking is that people really think about what this organization is doing. No doubt that there are many fine people who are Hospice volunteers. But there are those of us who believe that the sinister aspects of this philosphy are too obvious for us to keep silent.
