Good post - and an important topic. Obamacare was just the latest attempt to socialize the cost of extraordinary end-of-life treatments. When it doesn't work (and it can't) they'll try something else.

If I were them, I'd spend any amount of Other People's Money to postpone meeting God, too. :)

Yup. Doctors see all the time the torture (and when you get down to it, it is torture)people go through with extraordinary end of life treatments. They see it, and they are terrified of having to suffer like that.
