The sad fact is we don’t have the money or resources to give everyone gold plated care. But we shouldn’t be killing them off just to save costs.

As the boomer bubble starts to age into their twilight years, you will see a big push to kill them off to save costs. And with the moral formation of the average person these days, they will start killing them off.

Most health care dollars are spent in the last 6 weeks of life.

I watched a loved one die - and saw the parade of doctors walking the the room - glancing at the chart and walking out.

A doctor friend once told me (this was many years ago) that a morning ‘hospital walk’ was worth about $2,000. They waltz in, sign the chart and charge for an office visit or more. 30 seconds of their time... And now those wasted dollars are being used as an excuse to 'off' the elderly? Where are teh doting court eunuchs of the MSM? Why aren't they looking into this on their own? Do they always have to wait for a democrat to spoon feed them what to cover?

Death panels have to be part of any long term plans to make SS and Medicare viable. The govt just isn’t making that fact widely known.
