One of the most outrageous mandates in the Democratic health care bill is found on page 416. [Mod note: try pp 425-426] On this page, you will see mandatory “end of life” counseling for seniors every five years. With this counseling, they will be spoken to about the different end of life choices that can be undertaken.
This is crazy. How could some Democrat not get an amendment approved during committee to remove this page of the new health care legislation?
This is only one outrage contained in this bill. If Obama has his way, forcing this bill to be voted on next week without members and citizens to actually see what is in it, we will definitely be surprised the next time we try to go see a doctor.
Call Democrat Mike Ross and ask him to stop this bill in committee. Also tell him you’ll donate to his campaign and do so, after he stops this bill. The energy committee must pass the bill to get it to the floor. There are many conservative Dems on that committee. Only 7 are needed to kill it. They had 10 yesterday. They need your support. Two other committees already passed it today. We need to call today. Also, can someone else post the names of other blue dog Dems on that committee? Thanks.

Shades of Soylent Green... Bring on the Edward G. Robinson movie for the final curtain...
Yeah. It’s really simple. “We aren’t going to give you the treatment you need so to make the dying process a little more palatable, here’s some counseling.”

I am totally tired of “MANDANTORY” anything!
I WILL BE EXERCISING MY 2nd AMENDMENT RIGHTS.
FUBO
My Dad and Mom are technically seniors, barring a traffic accident they ain’t near “end of life”. They’ll be pretty ticked if the have to sit in a shrinks office for counseling about it.
With radical watermellons in charge,I expect Soylent Green,even though there’s plenty of resources to expand our economy with.
Sick, sick and sick The people that are pushing this are mental patients escaped from the asylmn.
That's me and my wife, YOUR parents and your kid's Grandparents.
God Help Us...
Well. I just read page 416 and there is nothing of the kind. Could it be a different page number?
So where is the AARP?
All senior congress critters should receive counseling on the joy of suicide. Many could do their country a favor following up on their own advice.
The one MANDATORY thing I am not tired of it the MANDATORY feature of the Constitution that MANDATES that the POTUS/CinC be a natural-born citizen. This needs to become the "new" nuclear option to stop the Hopey-Dopey-Changey-Strangey Marxist Juggernaut.
What is the punishment for dying without the proper counseling?
Oh, it certainly wouldn’t be a shrink - more like an ACORN type I suspect, who’s had a 2 hour training seminar.
